Preview (beginning of the article)
Every Saturday at the Swiss Classic World classic car fair in Lucerne, the Oldtimer Galerie Toffen auctions off around 50 classic cars. On June 1, 2024, there were exactly 50 cars with an average age of 51 years that rolled across the stage in Hall 2 in front of a really large audience looking for new owners. On average, the cars were valued at over CHF 95,000, with the total value of the 50 vehicles amounting to almost five million Swiss francs. The auction opened punctually at 17:00, and almost three hours later the hammer fell for the last time. 19 cars had been sold outright, another 20 "under reserve", 11 cars had definitely not yet found a new owner. As some of the vehicles that were knocked down "under reserve" came relatively close to the (presumed) minimum price in terms of bidding, it can be assumed that around 55% of the vehicles can ultimately be considered "sold" after the renegotiations.
