Specialists around site at Bicester Motion and within the wider classic car community have rallied to the cause and generously supported StarterMotor with their 2025 Festive Online Auction.  

The Charity’s mission to rejuvenate the demographic profile of the classic and historic motoring sector can only be achieved if the required resources are available. The auction is key to the fundraising effort, and draws upon businesses and specialists within the sector who donate prizes for the online event and at the same time help to foster a general spirit of support during the festive season. 

This year, Bicester Motion Specialists have supported with enthusiasm and in keeping with the festive backdrop…  

Hedley Studios have offered a ‘money can't buy’ driving experience, and for a lucky group of four, there’s a rare opportunity to experience a behind the scenes tour of the factory where they produce 'pinnacles of art with motion'. Small scale road legal recreation models of motoring icons - from a Bentley Blower to a Ferrari Testarossa, will be available to drive. 

With an equal measure of uniqueness Jordan Bespoke have offered the one successful bidder the opportunity to specify a truly personalised custom helmet bag or holdall. A fully customisable ‘Tailor Made’ experience at their Boutique Store in Bicester Motion promises the winner a special insight into how Jordan Bespoke create genuine pieces of art #LeatherArt. 

Broad Arrow Auctions have offered up a snippet of motorsport history with an authentic Embassy Racing Mechanics Suit, designed for the crew behind Graham Hill's Formula 1 team as well as a collection of hand-drawn and painted maquettes produced for BP as part of a historic advertising campaign.

Those in the local community have also provided some incredible experiences. Not far from Bicester, at the iconic Silverstone Circuit, there’s an opportunity to win a single seater driving experience. Aston Martin Aramco Formula 1 have provided and VIP factory tour, and Blenheim Palace have given annual family pass.
