The world's most expensive folding bike? Bidding for 'oldest' Brompton starts at £25,000

1981 Brompton 2

If you are a Brompton aficionado with a fair bit of spare cash, then the perfect present might have just popped up: an original Brompton from 1981, yours for just £25,000 - if no one else bids. It is believed to be the oldest badged model.

The No 2 folding bike was made in 1981, and is still in "very good" condition, apart from the mudguards, according to Cyclecare Swindon, which is auctioning it off. The auction ends on 4 June.
