A stunning 1967 Ford Mustang once owned by football icon Thierry Henry stole the show at Hampson’s 9 March auction at Bolesworth Castle, fetching an impressive £140,625. The sale, which saw 80% of lots finding new homes, continues the strong momentum Hampson’s has built since 2024, with its next Marketplace online auction set to take place later this month.
Thierry Henry, one of football’s most celebrated strikers, made his name at Arsenal, where he became the club’s all-time leading goalscorer, winning the Premier League and FA Cup. He was a key part of the legendary ‘Invincibles’ squad that went unbeaten in the 2003-04 season and later won the Champions League with Barcelona in 2009. Known for his blistering pace, clinical finishing, and effortless style, Henry’s influence extends beyond his playing days, with a successful career in coaching and punditry.
