Preview (beginning of the article)

In keeping with tradition, RM/Sotheby's opened the three major auctions in a tent on Place Vaubon during Rétromobile Week. The people from the American auction house had put together 77 vehicles, the announced motorcycle was missing. The total value was estimated at EUR 38 million or just over CHF 40 million. It wasn't quite that much, 77% of the cars were sold, with bidders paying an average of EUR 459,600 or CHF 491,800. The atmosphere on site was good, the hall was packed. And there was obviously enough money to go around. It all started with the cute Inter 175A Berline from 1956, a Messerschmitt equivalent from France, which was only produced for a short time. The three-wheeler had been estimated at EUR 50,000 to 70,000, but the last bidder raised his paddle at exactly the upper estimate, which meant a purchase price of EUR 78,400 or CHF 83,888.
