Yan Tan Tether!
We’re in Cumbria with Hettie Jago, David Harper and their 1980s Mercedes 280 SL. Who will strike a decisive blow in their best-of-five auction contest?
Auctioneer Hettie Jago and dealer David Harper's fourth outing is all about the Lakes, and the pair will be hoping that their 1980s Mercedes SL 280 convertible will cope with the challenging roads of the 'District'. These mountains of north west England were once chock-a-block with Romantic poets. But Hettie and David are here just for the antiques.
Between motoring and munching, Hettie hunts for animal-themed antiques and finds equine vesta cases and Japanese netsukes in the form of crabs. But will she claw back a profit? David also tracks down a bear and an art deco figurine while making a famille rose bowl sing.
It’s the fourth leg of our best-of-five auction contest. Who will come out on top at hammer time?
