Summary
The Bonhams auction in Paris on February 6, 2025 was a little different to what had been hoped for, even during the preparations. 96 automobiles went under the hammer in a side room of the Grand Palais alongside a number of automobilia and motorcycles, 70% of the cars without a reserve price. While the three Horch cars sold for many times more than expected, two Ferrari racing cars from the 1950s changed hands for surprisingly low prices. This auction review analyzes the results and shows the cars and the atmosphere on site in many pictures.
This article contains the following chapters
- The surprisingly valuable Horch trio
- Expensive VW Beetle Cabriolet
- The disappointing fifties Ferraris
- On the whole, however, solid results
- Some favorable opportunities

Preview (beginning of the article)
Anyone looking forward to a day at the magnificent Grand Palais, the venue for many Paris Motor Shows, when they made their way to the Bonhams auction on February 6, 2025, was in for quite a disappointment. As is well known, the auction has been held in a temporary venue for the last few years, but a return to the Grand Palais was planned for 2025, where Bonhams cars were lined up and auctioned off before Corona. However, this plan could not be implemented due to an international conference that took precedence, which meant that the auction took place in a side room in the Grand Palais, but the cars were outside, most of them in an underground car park about a kilometer from the Grand Palais, barely lit and relatively silently placed between concrete pillars on parking fields.
