A 2016 Egli-Vincent Sport GT, powered by a 1,330cc V-twin producing 99bhp, sold for £65,550 at auction through UK-based Iconic Auctioneers. A special machine carrying on the storied Vincent lineage, the sale reaffirmed the enduring value of classic British motorcycling.
The name Egli-Vincent is proof of a miracle, where a frame-design philosophy met a storied V-twin. Even built as recently as 2016, a valuation of £65,550 shows this machine is being bought and sold not as mere used goods, but as 'context.' I want to bow my head not to the price, but to the history it carries.

Egli-Vincent - which one is actually the manufacturer name, Egli or Vincent?
Vincent was the original engine maker, and Egli is a Swiss frame builder. It's a special machine combining the two.
The very combination of an Egli frame with a Vincent engine has real romance to it.
At this price bracket, a bike leans more toward being an asset than a hobby item.
£65,550 looks like a big number on its own, but I guess that's about the going rate for a rare, storied lineage like this.
Considering the auction market for original Vincent units, this actually looks like it's on the affordable side.
1,330cc making 99bhp - for a fresh 2016-built chassis, that number feels like a balanced tuning choice.
The combination of an Egli frame carrying on the Vincent lineage is irresistible for fans of good old British motorcycling.
