Preview (beginning of the article)
Bonham's auction at the Goodwood Members' Meeting is already well established. On April 7, 2019, rare and special automobiles once again went under the hammer, with a total of 109 vehicle lots registered, five of which were withdrawn before the auction began. The total value amounted to over £10 million per car and was expected to be around EUR 117,000 or CHF 132,000. However, the auction did not go quite as expected. Around two thirds of the cars were sold, with an average price of EUR 94,000 or CHF 107,000 per car. With an average age of around 63 years, most of the vehicles were already comparatively old. The oldest car, a DeDion Bouton, dates back to 1901, as does the Toledo Model A Steam Runabout, not counting the Benz Patent Motor Car Replica.
