On November 24, 2015, another Auctionata online auction took place following the tried and tested pattern. Once again, interested parties were able to bid on site in Berlin, by telephone or via the Internet.
36 cars went under the hammer, with a total value of around EUR 1.3 million (CHF 1.4 million) and an average estimate of EUR 37,000 or CHF 40,000 per car.
Many reservations
In the stock market, people are said to be in a bullish mood when they are in a buying frenzy. There was definitely no such mood at the Auctionata auction.
44% of the vehicles were knocked down, although the majority were still subject to reservations because the minimum prices could not quite be reached. 20 cars could not be sold, certainly a disappointment for the auction house.
The divine station wagon
The Citroën DS 20 Familale from 1970 was sold for 21,850 euros (CHF 23,598). Although the price did not quite equal the estimated price, the practical estate car did find a new owner.
The VW Karmann-Ghia with automatic transmission from 1967 was also sold without reservation, with the new owner investing 17,250 euros or CHF 18,630.
Muted Cuore Sportivo
Auctionata had three Alfa Romeos on the lot list, two of which, the Alfa Romeo GT 1300 Junior Zagato from 1970 (highest bid of €34,000) and the Spider Duetto 1600 from 1966 (€36,000), could at least be knocked down under reserve, while the even rarer Giulia GTC as a convertible from 1965 came to €60,000, well below the estimated price of around €90,000.
Little joy in German luxury sports cars
Of the German luxury sports cars on offer, only the Porsche 928 from 1990 (highest bid Euro 14,000) could be knocked down (subject to reserve), while the bids for the BMW 635 CSI (highest bid Euro 13,000), the Mercedes-Benz 500 SEC from 1987 or the 300 SE Coupé from 1965 did not rise high enough for a sale to be considered.
Little interest in American limousines
Friends of rare American sedans obviously didn't go online on November 24, 2015 in the evening, at least that's how it looks when you look at the results of the cars - Oldsmobile Super 88 Holiday, Plymouth Special Deluxe Series P20 Sedan, De Soto Firedome Series S25 Sedan or Edsel Citation Series Hardtop. Only the Plymouth Special received a sufficiently high bid of 12,000 euros, so that it could at least be sold under reserve.
It is difficult to discern a clear trend from the results. Obviously, the wrong bidders were online. It is surprising that even rarities such as the DKW F8 Sport from 1938 or the Tatra 600 Tatraplan hardly got off the ground, but at the same time youngtimers also failed to find favor with the public.
Results in detail
The following list shows all the vehicles on offer with starting and estimated prices in euros as well as the hammer and sales prices in euros and CHF (incl. commission, applicable VAT).
For vehicles sold under reserve, the hammer price plus commission and German VAT on the commission is listed as the selling price as a guide.
