Summary
On March 10, 2016, Bonhams auctioned 96 automobiles in Amelia Island. 65% of the vehicles on offer were sold, whereby the high proportion of pre-war cars and their sales results were particularly surprising, while post-war sports cars such as the Jaguar E-Type or Mercedes-Benz 190 SL were a source of disillusionment. This auction report analyzes the results, shows all the results and the vehicles in the picture.

Preview (beginning of the article)
Bonhams opened the auction week in Amelia Island on March 10, 2016. The 96 1:1 scale vehicles on offer (there were also some children's cars and automobilia up for auction) were characterized by an above-average proportion of pre-war vehicles. One third of the car lot list was made up of cars from the years up to 1941, and these fared even better than their post-war counterparts, achieving an average of 103% of the average estimated value as sales prices (including commission), while the more recent years only achieved an average of 86% of the estimated value, which can also be partly explained by the many "no reserve" offers (around 1/3).
