British Car Auctions (BCA) Brighouse will be holding an online auction for convertibles this St George's Day (April 23rd), on behalf of Lex.
The event will be known as the St George's Day Topless Parade and is expected to attract a large number of bidders for the 250 convertibles that will be on sale.
Among the models featured will be new and used cars ranging from £5,000 to £50,000 in value.
They will include an Aston Martin DB9, a BMW M3 3.2 Convertible, a Ferrari 456 GT Coupe, a Porsche 911 Carrera S and a MERCEDES SL 500.
Other convertibles for sale will be provided by Audi, Ford, GM VAUXHALL and Mazda, plus many more.
Simon Young, national account manager for BCA, said: "The specialist convertible market has a strong following with buyers and themed events such as this always create a great deal of interest."
