Of the multiple highlights from the two-day auction, three notable sales were also important sports cars – the
rare 1953 FIAT 8V Supersonic formerly owned by American motorsport legend Briggs Cunningham sold for
$1,625,000, the 1965 Shelby 427 Cobra achieved $1,380,000, and the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing
in beautiful condition made $1,347,500.
“Our breadth of selection this year was truly impressive,” said auctioneer and Bonhams Group Motoring
Director Rupert Banner. “There was something for everyone, from every era and focus. The market is proving
selective and we saw passionate bidding on the very best collectors’ cars, while modern classics brought
strong interest.”
Added Jakob Greisen, Bonhams VP of Motoring, “We had lots of international bidding, which resulted in a
strong sell-through rate, and we witnessed the strength of youngtimer cars – a boon for the hobby and the
industry as a whole.”
