Photo Gallery «Bonhams Paris 2016 - too high expectations at the Grand Palais?»
Bonhams auctioned 129 cars at the Grand Palais in Paris on February 4, 2016. 60% of the cars were successfully sold, but two-fifths were left standing, even though the bids were not pitiful. Obviously, however, the vendors had expected more, so that cars such as a Ferrari F40 or a Lancia Stratos were also left standing. This auction report analyzes the results, describes the atmosphere on site and shows all the vehicles in over 200 pictures.
