It is stipulated that Claude Aguttes SAS acts as an agent and solely on behalf

of the seller. The sales agreement for the goods presented for sale at public

auction is entered into exclusively by the seller and the buyer. The relationship

between Claude Aguttes SAS and the buyer is subject to the present general

conditions. On no account may Claude Aguttes SAS be held responsible for

any error made by either the seller or the buyer. The sale will be held strictly

on a cash basis and conducted in Euros. In addition to the hammer price

for the lot, the buyer will pay the following costs:

CARS

• 16,4% before tax + VAT at the current rate, i.e. 20% including tax

• 10% before tax + VAT at the current rate, i.e. 12% including tax over

€1,000,001

AUTOMOBILIA :

• 20% before tax + VAT at the current rate, i.e. 24% including tax

SPECIAL CONDITIONS

+ Lots sold during a court-ordered sale following a court ruling: buyers’ fees

of 14.4% including tax

° Lots in which the auction house or one of its partners has a financial interest

* Lots which have been temporarily imported and are subject to a buyer’s fee

of 5.5% (20% for jewelry, motorcars, wines and spirits and multiples – F1

helmet) in addition to the hammer price and sale fees.

# Lots which may be viewed only by appointment

~ Lots made from materials of animal origin. Import restrictions are to be

expected.

STORAGE AND DELIVERY AFTER THE SALE

Aventure Peugeot Citroën DS: an email will be sent the day after the sale to

each purchaser indicating the contact, the place and the amount to be paid

to recover his vehicle.

Vehicles will be stored on the evening of the sale inside the museum. They

may be collected from Tuesday following the sale on appointment, after the

hammer price and all fees have been settled.

• Buyers will be charged, in addition to the hammer price and fees, a fixed

sum of €250 before tax covering parking of the car. Aguttes SAS will not be

liable for any incidents which may occur during the transfer.

• From Monday, September 27, 2021, vehicles not recovered will be transported

at the expense of the new owner (400 € + vat) close to Paris. The daily cost

of parking will be 40 € HT per day, each day started being due, and will be

to be paid when the vehicle is taken back.

Neither the auctioneer nor the expert shall be deemed responsible for storage

of the vehicle in any way whatsoever. As soon as the hammer has fallen, the

lot will be the sole responsibility of the successful bidder.

The buyer will be personally responsible for insuring his or her purchases,

and Claude Aguttes SAS declines any responsibility for any damage to the

lot which may occur to these goods, with immediate effect from the hammer

falling. The lots will be delivered to the buyer in person or to a third party

designated by him/her and to whom he/she will have given an original written

authorisation and a copy of his/her proof of identity.

VALUE ADDED TAX (‘TVA’)

The amount of Value Added Tax (‘TVA’) corresponds to the current rate,

i.e. 20%, and is included in the hammer price. This tax may be recovered

by French professional buyers and reimbursed to buyers from outside the

European Union (EU) upon presentation of the supporting documentation for

export outside the EU or, for a professional purchaser with an intra-community

VAT number, a document proving delivery in an EU member state.

MISCELLANEOUS

French cars which are more than 75 years old at the time of the sale and

with a value exceeding €50,000 require an ‘export passport’ (‘passeport

d’exportation’) to leave French territory and an export licence to be taken out

of Europe. These procedures will take an additional period of approximately

three months for the ‘export passports’ and a further month for the export

licences. The buyer will be personally responsible for insuring his/her purchases

with immediate effect from the time the hammer falls.

GUARANTEES REGARDING THE GOODS FOR AUCTION AND SPECIFIC

PROVISIONS PERTAINING TO CLASSIC CARS

1°/ The sale will follow the order in the catalogue.

2°/ In accordance with the law, the information provided in the catalogue is

the responsibility of Claude Aguttes SAS and its expert, taking into account

any corrections announced when the lot is presented and noted in the record

of the sale. Attributions given are established on the basis of scientific and

artistic knowledge at the time of the sale. Any indications by Claude Aguttes

SAS concerning the existence of a restoration, accident or any other incident

affecting the item or vehicle are given in order to help potential buyers inspect

the item or vehicle and remain subject to his or her own appreciation of it. The

absence of any specific information in the catalogue in no way implies that

the goods concerned are free from any defects. Furthermore, the condition

reports requested from Claude Aguttes SAS and the expert before the sale

are given for information purposes only. No responsibility is assumed by

Claude Aguttes SAS and the expert for these reports, and they may not be

used as the basis for any legal claim. Under no circumstances should these

reports replace a personal examination of the item or vehicle by the buyer

or his/her representative.

3°/ Since the condition of a car may change between the time at which it is

described for inclusion in the catalogue and the time at which it is presented

for sale, right until it is taken over by the successful bidder, all vehicles are

sold ‘as is’. As a viewing of the goods for auction is held over several days

prior to the sale, allowing buyers to assess their condition, no claims will be

accepted once the lot has been sold. Buyers are recommended to take a

professional from the automotive sector with them to the viewing and to examine

the documents relating to each vehicle (registration papers, roadworthiness

inspection certificates etc.) made available to them by Claude Aguttes SAS.

Details given for each vehicle (condition, mileage covered on the basis of

the odometer reading etc.) and noted in the catalogue are provided for

information purposes only; it should be pointed out that the condition of a

car may change between the time when it is described for inclusion in the

catalogue and the time at which it is presented for sale.

4°/ The French-language text is the official text which will be referred to in

the event of any dispute. The descriptions in English and any measurements

in inches are given solely for information purposes and may not be used as

the basis of any claim. Any facts presented in the catalogue are provided

for information purposes only. The goods for auction are reproduced in

the catalogue as faithfully as possible, but a difference of colour or tone is

nonetheless possible. Dimensions are given for information purposes only.

5°/ For administrative reasons, the vehicle designations used (model, type,

year etc.) correspond, save for some exceptions, to the information given in

the vehicle registration papers.

6°/ Buyers are deemed to have examined the documents relating to each

vehicle, and in particular the roadworthiness inspection certificates and

bills made available to them by the auctioneers. Vehicles may, however, be

sold without having gone undergone a statutory roadworthiness inspection

on account of their age, the fact that they are not in running order or their

status as motorsport vehicles. Vehicles originating from outside France are

presented without a French roadworthiness inspection certificate (‘contrôle

technique’). Members of the public should inquire about this during the

viewing and auction.

7°/ Buyers are solely responsible for changing the vehicle registration, and

in particular for doing so within the time stipulated in law. Important: It must be stressed that the vehicles offered for sale date back

to a period when their performance and safety conditions fell far short of

today’s standards; buyers are therefore urged to exercise the utmost caution,

especially when driving them for the first time. Before using them, it is also

recommended to prepare them for the road and to carry out all necessary

checks (oil level, tyre pressures etc.).

Claude Aguttes SAS shall not be held liable for any incident arising from

the use of a vehicle where these recommendations have not been followed.

All buyers are required to insure their vehicles immediately following their

successful bid; Claude Aguttes SAS shall not be held liable for any damage

incurred after the hammer has fallen.

BIDS

The highest and final bidder shall be the purchaser.

Should the auctioneer recognise two simultaneous bids on one lot, the lot will

be re-offered for sale and all those present in the saleroom may participate

in this second opportunity to bid.

Important: Bidding is typically conducted in the saleroom. We will, however,

be pleased to accept some bids by telephone from prospective buyers

who have made their interest known before the sale. We cannot accept any

responsibility, in particular should it prove impossible to establish a phone

connection, if the connection is established too late or should there be errors

or omissions relating to the reception of bids by telephone. We accept orders

to bid sent to us free of charge. We cannot accept any responsibility, notably

in the case of errors or the omission of written bid instructions.

In making a bid, bidders accept their personal responsibility to honour the

hammer price plus the buyer’s fees and any taxes which may be due. Except

in the case of a written agreement with Claude Aguttes SAS prior to the sale,

specifying that the bidder is acting as an agent on behalf of a third party

known to and approved by Claude Aguttes SAS, the bidder is deemed to

be acting on his or her own behalf. We remind our sellers that bidding on

their own items is forbidden.

PAYMENT FOR PURCHASES

We strongly encourage buyers to settle their purchases by credit card or bank

transfer.

In accordance with article L.321-14 of the French commercial code, an item sold

difference between the price at which the lot was originally auctioned and

the price obtained at its re-sale, together with the costs incurred in holding

this new sale. Without any payment within 30 days, 10% penalty will be

LAW AND JURISDICTION

In accordance with the law, it is stipulated that any public liability actions

instituted on the occasion of valuations or voluntary and court-ordered public

auctions will lapse five years after the date of the valuation or auction. These

terms and conditions of sale are governed exclusively by French law. Any

dispute relating to their existence, their validity, the right to challenge them

and their binding effect on any bidder or purchaser shall fall within the

jurisdiction of the courts of Paris (France).

FURTHER INFORMATION

French law imposes strict rules applying to the commercial use of endangered

species of animals. The different appendices to the international regulations

of 3 March 1973 (CITES) require that a link be established between the

specimen and the document proving its lawful origin. This ruling – 338/97

dated 9/12/1996 – which has been re-transcribed in European Community

law (Appendices A/B/C) allows the commercial use of regulated species

(CITES) subject to the presentation of documents proving their lawful origin.

The documents in this instance are the following:

• For Appendix A: a detailed history of the specimen (for recent specimens)

• For Appendix B: birds must be fitted with either identification bands or

electronic tags and must have documentation proving their lawful origin.

The auction sale record must be kept as it provides a complete history of

each specimen. Recent specimens from species protected in the French

Environmental Code, born and raised in captivity, enjoy an exemption under

the ministerial decree of 14/07/2006. As such, they may be used commercially,

given the traceability between the specimen and the documentation proving

its lawful origin. Other specimens which pre-date the application of these

rules (ministerial decree of 21/07/2015) may be used commercially.

Specimens prior to 1947 presented at this sale enjoy an exemption under

Ruling 338/97 dated 9/12/1986 (article 2) which allows their use for trade. To

take these specimens out of the European Union, however, requires a pre-

CITES Convention agreement. For species which can be hunted in Europe

and elsewhere, their commercial use is allowed under certain conditions.

So-called domesticated species presented at this sale may be freely exploited

for commercial purposes. Older specimens prior to the Convention (pre-1975)

comply with the conditions of the ministerial decree dated 23/12/2011 and

may therefore be used commercially. The other specimens from this sale are

not subject to any regulations and may be freely used for any commercial

purposes. The auction sale record will substantiate their lawful origin. To take

them out of the EU, with regard to Appendices I/A, II/B and III/C, a CITES

re-export form will be needed, at the expense of the future buyer.
