Vendor supplied images

Highlights

  • Only 1,184 miles from new
  • One registered keeper from new
  • Unique factory-built 'Golden Jubilee' edition Bonneville confirmed by a letter from Triumph
  • Original invoice, handbook, and service book included
  • Recently recommissioned, serviced, and MOT tested - resulting in an advisory-free pass

The Appeal


Built to commemorate Queen Elizabeth II's 50th year on the throne, the Triumph Bonneville 'Golden Jubilee' sported an unashamedly patriotic colour scheme. Production numbers are hard to pin down, but numerous sources cite just over 800 Golden Jubilee kits were sent to Triumph dealers. This one is even more special, as it's the only one Triumph ever made themselves.

As if its unique provenance wasn't enough, this Golden Jubilee has just 1,184 miles on the clock and one owner from new. The only deviation from standard is an aftermarket exhaust fitted by the supplying dealer Three Cross in April 2002 at 410 miles. Complete with an advisory-free MOT that runs until January 2025, this bike is ready to go.

About Max Bids

The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.

Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.

Anti-sniping

Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.

Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.

Auto-bidding increments

  • If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
  • If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
    • Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
    • We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

Bid Amount Increment
£0 to £9,999 £100.00
£10,000 to £49,999 £250.00
£50,000 to £99,999 £500.00
£100,000 + £1,000.00

Automatically outbid immediately

When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.

You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.

Matching max bids

When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.

Pre-authorisation

We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.

What are pre-bids?

A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.

Problem with your bid

Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
