Summary
46 cars and one motorcycle went under the hammer at the second auction of the Oldtimer Gallery in Gstaad on December 29, 2018. Once again, Reinhard Schmidlin and his team had put together a wide and exclusive range of items. Each car/motorcycle was expected to fetch around CHF 202,000 (EUR 179,500), and the average bid was CHF 165,500 (EUR 147,300). The average bid was therefore just over 80% of the median estimate. Seventy-one percent of the vehicles were sold, although 43% were only sold under reserve. The highlights were an Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Cabriolet and a Maserati Bora, as well as a Lancia Delta HF Integrale Evo 2, which achieved good results. This auction article analyzes the results and reflects the mood on site.

Preview (beginning of the article)
While a lot of snow fell shortly before the auction of the classic car gallery in Gstaad in 2017, the surroundings of the famous winter sports resort in the Bernese Oberland were only white to a limited extent on December 29, 2018. But it was still cold. The second auction in Gstaad met with great interest, and both the previews and the auction itself were very well attended. Reinhard Schmidlin's team also went to great lengths to ensure an interesting end to the year in the mountains. 46 cars and 1 motorcycle worth CHF 9.5 million (EUR 8.4 million) were up for grabs and to set the mood, an Elvis impersonator and a Beatles revival band (more on this later) played music from the sixties.
