Summary

Artcurial organized an auction of rare competition vehicles, a selection of vehicles from the Heuliez collection and other classics of international provenance in the "shadow" of the Le Mans Classic, so to speak. With a sales rate of over 80%, the auction can be considered a success. This report highlights some of the vehicles on offer, shows some of them in pictures and lists the detailed sales results.
