2010 Triumph Thruxton 900 For Sale By Auction

THE APPEAL

Inspired by the 50s and 60s Café Racer style, the Triumph Thruxton 900 is a modern take on a true classic. Featuring fuel injection cleverly hidden within the authentic-looking carburettors, the Thruxton gives reliability and performance whilst still looking like a retro racer.

This lovely example has been with the vendor since 2011, and he has only covered around 100 miles in the past 12 years. Whilst not in use, it has remained as part of his collection in a temperature-controlled garage with some other classic cars and bikes. Now is the time to sell the Thruxton 900 to let someone have the pleasure of riding the modern classic Café Racer style Triumph, which gives an authentic retro experience that doesn’t disappoint.

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.
