Triumph Spitfire 1500 (1977) - als Lot 07 angeboten an der Dorotheum-Auktion "Klassische Automobile" am 1. Juli 2023

On July 1, 2023, Dorotheum will auction 69 cars, two motorcycles and a tractor with a total value of around three million euros in Vösendorf near Vienna. The average estimated price per lot is therefore just under 41,000 euros. One of the motorcycles - a 1965 BSA Bantam D7 Super - and 15 other vehicles are being offered without a reserve price.

Harley Davidson SA 350 (1928) - offered as lot 24 at the Dorotheum auction "Classic Automobiles" on July 1, 2023

The age spectrum of the lots ranges from 1928 (Harley-Davidson SA 350) to 1999 (Audi S4). On average, the vehicles on offer are 53 years old.

Two extremes in red

The most expensive car in the auction is estimated to be one of five Ferraris on offer: a Testarossa from 1986 in the coveted "Monospecchio" version, which is expected to fetch between 170,000 and 200,000 euros.

Ferrari Testarossa (1986) - offered as lot 73 at the Dorotheum auction "Classic Automobiles" on July 1, 2023

A Peugeot 304 GL from 1977 is expected to be the cheapest car in the auction. The small red saloon has been estimated at just 5000 to 8000 euros.

Peugeot 304 GL (1977) - offered as lot 05 at the Dorotheum auction "Classic Automobiles" on July 1, 2023

Only the only tractor on offer (a 1957 Hofherr-Schrantz 104 for 3000-7000 euros), the aforementioned BSA (1500-2000 euros) and an example of the 1985 Sinclair C5 electric three-wheeler (1500-1800 euros) are even cheaper.

Fake VWs and half Porsches

The most frequently represented car brand in the auction catalog is VW with ten vehicles, followed by Porsche with eight and a half (the Hofherr Schranz is a Porsche license build) and Mercedes-Benz with eight vehicles.

Subaru Sambar (1994) - offered as lot 19 at the Dorotheum auction "Classic Automobiles" on July 1, 2023

An eleventh VW is not a VW at all: the 1994 Subaru Sambar was simply converted to look like a VW T1 with the help of a kit. The turquoise and white nostalgia vehicle is expected to fetch between 12,000 and 15,000 euros.

DKW Schnellaster (1957) - offered as lot 53 at the Dorotheum auction "Classic Automobiles" on July 1, 2023

For those who prefer something a little bigger, the DKW Schnellaster (1957, 30,000-36,000 euros) and Ford Transit 1250 (1967, 8000-12,000 euros) are both up for auction as window buses.

Volkswagen T2 Bus (1968) - offered as lot 63 at the Dorotheum auction "Classic Automobiles" on July 1, 2023

Dorotheum also has genuine VW Transporters on offer: T2 as a minibus and platform van (1968, 31,000-38,000 euros and 1972, 22,000-29,000 euros respectively) and a T3 from 1990 as a Caravelle for 17,000 to 24,000 euros.

Obvious and less obvious rarities

In addition to popular models such as the Mercedes-Benz W 113, Porsche 356 and MGB, Dorotheum also has a number of US exotic cars on offer. The 1954 Chevrolet Corvette (95,000-115,000 euros) and the 1930 Cord L29 (150,000-180,000 euros), for example, are rather rare in Europe.

Porsche Turbo Carrera (1977) - offered as lot 38 at the Dorotheum auction "Classic Automobiles" on July 1, 2023

The auction catalog also contains some cars that only turn out to be rarities at second glance. For example, one of only 727 Porsche Turbo Carrera built for the North American market in 1977 is on offer (165,000-180,000 euros).

De Soto Super Deluxe 4-Door Sedan (1947) - offered as lot 66 at the Dorotheum auction "Classic Automobiles" on July 1, 2023

Also a 1947 De Soto Special Deluxe 4-Door Sedan, which was delivered to Portugal in 1948 (15,000-18,000 euros), or the 3910th Ford Mustang ever built, which rolled off the production line in Dearborn in March 1964 even before the model was officially unveiled (45,000-55,000 euros).

Ginetta G15 (1969) - offered as lot 32 at the Dorotheum auction "Classic Automobiles" on July 1, 2023

Exotic car hunters should also take a closer look at the Ginetta G15 from 1969 with the Sunbeam Imp engine in the rear, which is expected to fetch EUR 10,000-14,000.

The complete auction catalog as well as detailed descriptions and pictures of the individual lots can be found on the auction website. The vehicles can be viewed on June 29 to July 1, 2023 in Vösendorf.
