In 2012, Reinhard Schmidlin and his team organized an auction at the Dolder in Zurich for the first time. Until 2016, the event was always held on the drained ice rink, but another solution had to be found for 2017 due to the renovation of the ageing leisure facility. A solution was found in the form of the Grand Hotel Dolder, and 37 cars and 4 motorcycles will go under the hammer in the elegant hotel on June 17, 2017.

Noble selection

The value of these 41 lots is around CHF 4.7 million (EUR 4.4 million), so an average of around CHF 112,000 (EUR 104,000) is expected per vehicle. The very expensive million-dollar objects are missing in 2017, with neither a Ferrari F40 nor a Mercedes-Benz 300 SL appearing in the catalog.

This sheds more light on other attractive vehicles, such as a beautiful blue Dino 246 GTS from 1972 or the pre-war Chrysler Series 77 Roadster from 1930, both of which are presented without an estimate.

Many newer vehicles

The classic car gallery can also follow the trend of newer and newer vehicles coming under the hammer at auctions; the most recent car, a Porsche 911 "R" from 2016, is practically new and is expected to cost EUR 495,000 to 525,000, making it the most expensive lot in the auction.

Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren (2005) and BMW Z8 (2003) are also among the neo-classics that are not even suitable as youngtimers.

Broad spectrum

The range is extremely diverse, from the luxury Rolls-Royce Camargue coupé from 1979 to the Lamborghini Espada sports car from 1970, from the Ducati 900 "Mike Hailwood Replica" from 1982 to the Yummy Motors CCT-R from 2009, a one-off from a Swiss car manufacturer.

Super classics too

Of course, the super classics are not missing either, whether it's the Jaguar E-Type V12 from 1974 or the Shelby Mustang G.T. 350 from 1968.

For lovers of fast limousines

The auction is also of interest to lovers of fast limousines, as two V8 limousines from Mercedes-Benz, a 450 SEL 6.9 from 1975 and a 300 SEL 6.3 from 1970, as well as the Aston Martin DB-4 derivative Lagonda Rapide from 1963, will go under the hammer at the Dolder.

Also of interest from an investor's perspective are the Alfa Romeo Montreal from 1971 and the BMW 3200 CS Bertone from 1964.

The rare Porsche 964 RS also fetches high prices, Schmidlin can offer an example from 1992.

The Dolder selection may have been more sophisticated, but in 2017 there are many interesting classics with potential in terms of driving pleasure and value retention.

Further information about the auction can be found on the Oldtimer Galerie website.
