Recent interior refurbishment including new sunroof, headlining, carpet, and seat covers
Right-hand drive example
The Appeal
The upmarket variant of the Herald, the 12/50 kept the Herald's essential styling and character intact while offering a tuned-up variant of the car's four-cylinder engine, with a much-improved 51bhp. Add in a vinyl sunroof, disc brakes and that distinctive aluminium grille, and you've got quite the classy interpretation of the Michelotti-styled motor.
This Triumph Herald 12/50 is a particularly special one. With only one owner from new, we're told this superb example has a full service history, it has been meticulously cared for throughout its life, something that's immediately obvious at first glance. A rich British Racing Green livery, smart bodywork and a luxurious cabin are all immediate selling points. Said interior has been recently refurbished, too, including a new sunroof, headlining, carpet, and seat covers.
This vehicle is ready to be enjoyed and will no doubt become just as cherished by its lucky new owner.

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.

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.
