With "Automobiles en Scènes", the auction company Artcurial is launching a new auction format in Paris on Monday, June 17, 2019. The venue will be the historic Théâtre du Rond-Point on the Champs-Elysées in the heart of Paris.
85 classic cars
A total of 82 cars and three motorcycles worth EUR 16.2 million (CHF 18.1 million) will go under the hammer in Paris. An average of around EUR 191,000 (CHF 213,000) per lot is therefore expected.
The average age of the vehicles is almost 44 years, while the oldest car, a De Dion Bouton, dates back to 1900, the youngest vehicle, a Porsche 911 R, was built in 2016.
29 lots (34 percent) are offered without a reserve price.
19 Porsche
By far the largest brand delegation bears the Porsche sign. There are 19 sports cars from Zuffenhausen in total. They are significantly younger on average than the rest of the auction. They are just 26 years old on average, which is also due to the fact that five of the Porsches are from the new millennium.
Nevertheless, there is also a 356 Speedster from 1955, but the other cars are all 911s with one exception. There is also a (red!) Carrera GT from 2006 (EUR 550,000 to 750,000).
Rare RS and GT models, as well as several Speedsters, are certainly among the rarest Porsche models, and the estimated values are correspondingly high.
The special Panhard
The Italian importer Gaston Crepaldi not only ordered finished cars from Panhard, but also chassis for which he had attractive bodies designed by Giovanni Michelotti, among others, which were then realized by Allemano. This is how the attractive coupé with chassis number 481813 was created in 1953. Similar cars took part in the Mille Miglia and other races of the time, and one of the vehicles was shown at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1954.
The Panhard X86 Berlinetta Allemano on offer was restored in the 1980s and also took part in many classic car events at the time. Since then, however, some patina and dust has accumulated, so some work is needed before the next outing.
An estimate of EUR 100,000 to 150,000 has been set.
Winged CSL
A BMW 3.0 CSL with chassis number 2275399 dates from 1975. It has the famous wing on the rear and the fins on the hood, but these were fitted at a later date.
The car has spent the last 30 years in the same family ownership, but has been driven very little and never fully restored. EUR 100'000 to 150'000 was estimated.
The BMW Z1 from 1990 with its characteristic doors that sink into the flank is considerably cheaper. The car is expected to cost between EUR 40,000 and 60,000, but no minimum price has been set (no reserve).
The silver Ferrari 275 GTB
Probably the most expensive car in the auction is the Ferrari 275 GTB from 1965, which, as chassis 7555, also once belonged to Peugeot's head of design Paul Bouvot, among others.
Completely restored and with Ferrari Classiche certification, the Berlinetta is now expected to attract EUR 1.9 to 2.3 million from buyers.
Affordable classics too
In addition to the super classics, which include a Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Roadster from 1957 (EUR 980,000 to 1.08 million) and a Lancia Stratos HF from 1975 (EUR 450,000 to 500,000), Artcurial in Paris is also offering significantly cheaper vehicles.s well as a Fiat 500 Lombardi My Car from 1969 (EUR 10,000 to 15,000) and a Fiat 600 Lucciola Lombardi from 1959 (EUR 20,000 to 30,000).
The Artcurial specialists estimate EUR 15,000 to 25,000 for a 1974 Fiat 130 Coupé and EUR 8,000 to 12,000 for a 2012 Smart Fortwo Coupé Brabus Xcklusive.
The certainly special Invicta Black Prince Cabriolet from 1949, which has been estimated at EUR 40,000 to 60,000 and will be sold without a reserve price, is also likely to be exceptional. Chassis 112 was one of 16 built, extraordinarily expensive and innovative models of this type and one of only 6 convertibles built.
The Invicta was restored a few years ago, but has been little used since then, so you should certainly spare some money and patience before you can take this rare car, whose shape is reminiscent of the Rolls-Royces of the time, out for a drive again.
Further information and many pictures can be found on the website of the auction house Artcurial.
