Bangers & Cash

Mathewsons auction results

By Jon Cosson · Last checked

An independent guide from the village. Not connected to Mathewsons or the programme. For entries, bidding and the catalogue, go to mathewsons.co.uk.

What the cars from Bangers and Cash and Restoring Classics sold for at Mathewsons, taken from the results Mathewsons publish on their own website. Each figure is given as published, with the sale date and the episode the car appeared in.

How we match a result to an episode

Mathewsons publish a result for every lot, but they do not say which lots appeared on television. We list a result against an episode only when the car is the only one of its make, model and year that Mathewsons sold in the months the series was filmed, or when the catalogue description matches the episode. Where more than one possible car went through the saleroom, we give no figure until we can tie one to the episode. The figures are exactly as Mathewsons published them; for the terms of any sale, including buyer's commission, see Mathewsons' own website.

Restoring Classics results

Restoration costs are never published, so nobody outside the programme can say exactly which cars made money. Sale prices are public where a Mathewsons lot page names the Restoring Classics team as the vendor. The figures below are the "sold" figures shown on those pages, which Mathewsons says may be provisional.
