‘Welcome to Dore & Rees Motoring's 2025 Winter Auction, our end of year sale at Five Zeros Supercars is certainly an interesting one. This auction features an eclectic selection of stocking filling collector's cars and automobilia. Car highlights range in age from a pre-war Austin to a modern Ferrari California, with some fascinating cars such as the uber-cool Ferrari-engined Lancia Thema 8.32. 

We are delighted to have a charity lot in the form of an early Lancia Delta Integrale, restored by Richard Hammond's The Smallest Cog and with all proceeds going to the Combe Martin Wildlife and Dinosaur Park's Amur Leopards project. We are also pleased to welcome the The Storridge Collection of 1970s and 80s sportscars, and some interesting literature and factory material, notably from Bentley/Rolls-Royce.   

All Lots are on view on Friday 21st November from midday and the morning of the sale on Saturday 22nd. We look forward to welcoming you on the day!’, Nick

NICK WELLS / HEAD OF MOTORING

 

A lifelong classic car enthusiast, Nick restored his first classic car, a Triumph Spitfire, whilst still in his teens, and owns it to the present day. The Spitfire is now joined by a brace of coach built 1960s' Lancia GTs, a 1980s Porsche 911, a Peugeot 205 GTi 1.9 and an early BMW 6-Series with some interesting history.

Nick studied Business and German at university, spending time with BMW in Munich, followed by a successful career in marketing. Feeling the urge to align his career more closely to his interests, Nick moved into the international classic car auction business some years ago, quickly establishing himself as a specialist and valuer, and later an auctioneer.

Nick has presided over classic auction sales in the UK and Europe, and as far afield as South Africa, and has consulted on valuations and sales of both individual cars and collections. In 2021 Nick was delighted to be invited to join the expert panel of the ITV show The Car Years, taking two cars from a year in motoring history and pitching them against each-other to pick a winner.

Dore & Rees' Motoring department has grown since 2021, the team is joined by local car specialists Mike Reed and Leo Scott, and well-known Classic Motorcycle specialist John Nash.

When not tinkering with old cars Nick can either be found in the garden or on his road bike, running for his chosen charity Trinity Hospice in London, or enjoying his new hobby of clay pigeon shooting.
