Collector Cars: La Vente d'Automne 2024
Nearly 5 million euros were raised at this year's flagship sale!
After 4 hours of hard-fought sales by the Aguttes on Wheels teams, La Vente d'Automne 2024 left its mark on the world of classic cars in Europe.
With a sell-through rate of 74%, collectors and enthusiasts once again turned out in force, pushing the sale to nearly €5 million.
From the very first bids, in a packed room, collectors did not miss the opportunity to acquire rare pieces, such as the Alpine A108 Cabriolet, which more than doubled its high estimate at €95,780!
This was followed by the €162,532 achieved by the Tatra 87 from 1948, initially estimated at between €85,000 and €125,000, and the €202,000 for the iconic Citroën DS 21 M Cabriolet, which also exceeded its high estimate.
The undisputed star of the sale, the Rolls-Royce Prototype ‘Jules’ from the 1981 Paris-Dakar Rally, fetched €596,420, making headlines once again! This legendary car is writing a new page in its history, with the panache of those who have achieved iconic status...
Alongside it, the Aston Martin DB5 and Aston Martin DB6 fetch €742,600 and €262,600 respectively, high prices given the turbulence that the Aston Martin market has been experiencing in recent years.
In a completely different register, racing cars appeared in large numbers in the catalogue. The oldest Lotus Eleven S1 in the Colin Chapman's Legacy collection changed hands for €167,300, while the Jaguar E-Type Semi-Lightweight, winner of three Tour Auto titles, set a new auction record by achieving the highest bid ever for an E-Type of its type at €345,000.
The €185,000 achieved by the high-performance Chevron B19 further establishes our department's position in the cutting-edge competition car sector.
Modern cars were not to be outdone either, with a Ferrari 550 Maranello fetching over €125,000, the Audi Quattro selling for €57,600 and the Aston Martin Vanquish S for €107,000.
Alongside them, it is worth highlighting the market's attraction for original cars such as the Poncin VP 2000, which again doubled its high estimate to over €26,000, the Ferves Ranger 4x4 at over €36,000 and a Citroën Méhari 4-seater, which nearly tripled its estimate to €24,000.

Cultivating its differences from the big names on the market, Aguttes on Wheels would like to thank all those who visited them during the 3-day show.
More than ever committed to the proximity that Aguttes on Wheels favours in its dealings and to the utmost transparency in all its transactions, this sale is the culmination of months of work.
We'd like to thank everyone involved for making this event such a success, and look forward to seeing you in 2025 for even more automotive treasures to discover!
