Michael Turner's Classic Car Collection Heads to Bonhams Goodwood Sale
Three classic cars from the collection of automotive and aviation artist Michael Turner will be auctioned by Bonhams|Cars at the Goodwood Members Meeting Sale on 19 April 2025. Turner, who died in December 2025 at age 91, owned the headline vehicle—a 1939 Jaguar SS100 with registration DTF28—for nearly seventy years, likely making it the longest-held example among the 116 originally produced 3.5-litre SS100s. Estimated between £225,000 and £275,000, chassis 39075 with engine M1052E served as his daily driver for much of that time. Before Turner acquired it, DTF28 raced at venues including Silverstone, Croft, and Prescott. The sale's consignment deadline is approaching within days.
