Photo Gallery «Classic Car Gallery Auction Lucerne 2023 - Internet bidders against exhibition hall bidders»

The Oldtimer Galerie Toffen's offering for the auction at the Swiss Classic World Lucerne was diverse and included super classics and exotics. However, the public in the exhibition hall proved to be selective, with bids from the Internet often leading to knockdowns. The most expensive car sold was a Ferrari 512 BBi, while a Mercedes SL performed above expectations. But there was no shortage of affordable cars either. This auction review describes the atmosphere on site, analyzes the results and shows pictures of all 43 cars.
