An enthusiast in Portugal with interests that were certainly not commonplace collected very special classic cars that particularly appealed to him over the years. He did not limit himself to Porsche sports cars, but also bought exotic sports cars such as the WD Denzel or the HRG Aerodynamic by Fox & Nicholl. The collection also included a Jowett Jupiter Sports from 1951 and a Willys Interlagos Coupé from 1963.
Now these 126 cars will go under the hammer together on September 21, 2019.
All without a reserve price
The entire collection, worth over EUR 10 million, is being offered without a reserve price. 59 brands are represented, the average age of the vehicles is just over 58 years.
Porsche sports cars have the largest presence with 22 cars, while all other manufacturers are represented in single figures at most. With Trojan, Sado, Matra, DB and BSA, brands that have long since disappeared are also represented.
From cabin scooters ...
The collection spectrum of the gentleman from Portugal was broad.
He was interested in a wide variety of vehicle types, including cabin scooters, as demonstrated by a Messerschmitt KR201 Roadster from 1961 (EUR 25,000 to 35,000) or a Trojan 200 from 1962 (EUR 15,000 to 20,000).
... up to the fast touring car
His passion also extended to genuine GT classics such as the Jaguar E-Type FHC from 1961 (EUR 140,000 to 160,000) or the Aston Martin V8 Vantage AMR from 2017 (EUR 100,000 to 130,000).
The collection also included fast limousines, such as the Bentley S2 Continental Flying Spur from 1960 (EUR 130,000 to 160,000) or a Jaguar S-Type 3.8-Litre Saloon from 1965 (EUR 20,000 to 25,000).
Many pre-war vehicles ...
Around a quarter of the vehicles are from the pre-war period. These include a Fiat 508 Balilla Coupé from 1933 (EUR 15,000 to 25,000), an Amilcar CGS from 1925 (EUR 40,000 to 50,000) and a Derby 9 HP Sports from 1926 (EUR 20,000 to 30,000).
The collection also included an Austin Seven from 1936 (EUR 10,000 to 20,000) and a BMW 327 Coupé from 1939 (EUR 120,000 to 150,000).
... and also neo-classics
As many as eleven cars come from the new millennium, including a Porsche 911 GT3 RS from 2010 (EUR 150,000 to 180,000), an Aston Martin DB9 LM from 2008 (EUR 70,000 to 90,000) and a BMW Z8 from 2001 (EUR 150,000 to 180,000).
A few classic cars will also be auctioned, including a Porsche 964 Carrera RS from 1992 (EUR 200,000 to 250,000).
Special exotics
The icing on the cake at the auction in Portugal are certainly the exotic cars that hardly anyone knows about.
For example, the DB Type HBR Cabriolet from 1951 (EUR 70,000 to 90,000) or the WD Denzel 1300 from 1955 (EUR 380,000 to 450,000).
A Facel Veg F2 Facellia Cabriolet from 1961 (EUR 40,000 to 60,000) is also rarely offered, as is the Alpine derivative Willys Interlagos Coupé from 1963 (EUR 25,000 to 35,000).
The Matra Djet V from 1967 (EUR 30,000 to 40,000) is also one of the rare rarities at auction.
And hardly anyone outside Portugal has heard of a Sado 550 from 1983 (EUR 5000 to 10,000).
More information on the individual cars can be found on the RM/Sotheby's website.
