Summary

Bonhams auctioned 108 automobiles (including 1 tractor) on January 18, 2018. With a sales rate of 83 percent and several price records, those responsible were certainly satisfied. In addition to the expected five-million Porsche 550A Spyder from 1958, a Bentley Speed Six and Carroll Shelby's GT350H, among others, ensured upward swings, while mixed results were recorded for the Ferrari and Porsche sports cars in particular. This auction article analyzes the results, lists all the highest bids and also points out bargains.
