Iconic Auctioneers will present an exceptional group of highly original, low-mileage vehicles - dubbed 'The Vault Collection' - at its hotly anticipated Iconic Sale during Supercar Fest on 17 May at Sywell Aerodrome, Northamptonshire.

Curated by a dedicated enthusiast and carefully housed in a bespoke underground facility, The Vault Collection features pristine examples of modern automotive icons, including a rare 1989 BMW M3 (E30) Cabriolet, a meticulously preserved 1991 BMW M5 (E34), a remarkable 1994 BMW 850 CSi (E31), and an exceptionally low-mileage 2010 Porsche 911 (997.2) Turbo S Cabriolet.
E30 M3

The E30 M3 Cabriolet, finished in the vibrant Misano Red and paired with rare Ravaglia M-cloth upholstery, has covered just over 54,000km. This convertible represents BMW's first open-top M model, directly inspired by the brand’s successful motorsport history. With only 786 units produced worldwide, it is highly sought after by enthusiasts and wisely guided at £87,000 - £100,000. Its 195bhp Formula 1-inspired engine ensures an exhilarating performance that beautifully complements its rarity and distinctive heritage.

E34 M5

Representing the pinnacle of BMW's high-performance saloons, the E34 M5 combines motorsport-tuned engineering with refined luxury. Finished in Brilliant Red and complemented by a pristine black leather interior, this example is truly exceptional, having covered only 19,500 miles from new. Powered by the acclaimed S38 engine producing 315bhp, it exemplifies driving refinement and dynamic capability in a subtly styled package. Estimated at £40,000 - £50,000.

850 CSI

With only 160 right-hand-drive models produced, the BMW 850 CSi is an exceptional rarity in the collector car market. Featuring a sonorous 5.6-litre V12 engine generating 375bhp mated to a six-speed manual gearbox, and factory upgrades including a limited-slip differential and a stiffer suspension, the 850 CSi exemplifies BMW's dedication to combining luxury with high-performance technology. Finished in striking Cosmos Black with a luxurious Lotus White leather interior, and having benefitted from meticulous care under the current owner, this example offers an unparalleled opportunity for the discerning collector and is estimated at £68,000 - £78,000.

911 TURBO

The Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet epitomises modern performance combined with everyday usability. With fewer than 2,000 miles on the clock and finished in sophisticated GT Silver with a Cocoa leather interior, this Turbo S boasts an extraordinary 560bhp 3.8-litre twin-turbocharged flat-six, capable of reaching 0-60 mph in just 3.1 seconds. Advanced Porsche features include a dynamic four-wheel-drive system and carbon ceramic brakes. Combining earth-shattering performance with genuine day to day usability, the Turbo S is untouchable and in this delightful colour combination is sensibly guided at £100,000 - £120,000.

Rob Hubbard, Managing Director and Principal Auctioneer, said: “The Vault Collection represents automotive excellence in its purest form - cars selected not just for their rarity and performance, but for their exceptional originality and preservation. Opportunities to acquire such well-preserved, iconic models rarely come around. These cars truly embody what Iconic Auctioneers stands for: presenting outstanding vehicles to enthusiasts who appreciate the finest examples of motoring heritage.”
