CLASSIC AUTOMOBILES SOLD BY
|
|
Every year, Autodrome is in charge of buying and selling some of the most sought-after Classic Automobiles ; not many, not necessary expensive, but always with an exceptionnal value and historic importance.
Our policy is simple and unchangeable : to always offer, for any given model, the best automobile available on the market - and at the very best price. Believe it or not, profit is far from being our main motivation.
This means a painstaking screening which demands all our time and all the judgment that we have acquired through thirty years experience. Our clients often purchase more than one car from Autodrome. If they almost always come back, it's because they can't find the same trust, competence, and committment anywhere else.
Here is a short selection among the most beautiful and the most desirable ones...
LANCIA Flaminia GT Touring - the most desirable two-seater version : this car was sold before being advertised. The passion for this wonderfully classy
Touring design is growing.
LAMBORGHINI Espada.. a rare Series 1, the most sought-after, due to its pure
design and to its specific interior. This particular example was sold new to
French speaking singer Salvatore Adamo...
LANCIA Appia Zagato Sport : this model is highly sought-after, mostly due to
its style, competition records and lightweght construction. The sound
of the V4 with racing exhaust is very exciting and adds to the driving pleasure
of this small wonder.
The beautiful Maserati Ghibli (1st series, the most elegant and best version) is
being shipped to its new home. A rival of the Ferrari Daytona, the Ghibli is
remarkable for its powerful and torquey V8 engine, and for its admirable,
radical aesthetics - now become a Master work of classic Automobiles, but then a
revolutionnary design.
ASA-FERRARI 1000 GT Spider, the last hidden example, carefully kept in a
closed garage, and rediscovered by Autodrome... Ferrari designed and built the
first prototypes of this thoroughbred Gran Turismo, before entrusting the
commercialisation to ASA. Only a dozen Cabriolets built, that are now an almost
unavailable legend...
ASTON MARTIN DBS Vantage ; the last straight-6 by David Brown, just before the
Company was sold... This extremely rare LHD version (only 70 made), with ZF
manual gearbox is probably the very best investment in classic Aston Martin
today.
A miracle: ultra rare ASTON MARTIN DB2 Vantage,
found after 20 years in a garage, absolutely original. David Brown created this
model to run the 24 H of Le Mans in 1949 ; it became the foundation of the AM
racing legend. The new owner will be delighted with its incredibly authentic
patina. Or, if prefered, once restored to new, this car will be worth more than
twice the price paid...
Only 31 LAMBORGHINI Diablo SVR, first racing
Lamborghini, have been built. Some have been eventually fitted with electric
windows, exhaust muffler and sound-deadening material. Ours was still in pure
racing configuration when we sold it to an enhusiast. It will be a privilege to
drive it as one of the fastest Lamborghini ever built in Sant'Agata.
One of the rare (less than a hundred) surviving LANCIA Flamina Zagato Supersport. This version was the epitome of the Italian Gran Turismo, with its excellent V6 and its aerodynamical aluminium bodywork - designed by Ercole Spada, who also shaped the Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato.
The Cabriolet CITROEN Traction is one of the most
elegant pre-war cars ; sought-after by many collectors all over the world, il is
now very rare to find it so original, and in such an excellent restored
condition.One of our Swiss clients didn't miss the opportunity !
The last LAMBORGHINI Miura in History is the SVJ Spider, presented by Lamborghini in Geneva in 1981. Last evolution of a legend , this unique prototype long belonged to Autodrome's private collection. We wished to keep this important automobile in France, and we sold it to a Parisian collector.
STON MARTIN is the "cream of the cream" for many enthusiasts, the elite of GT cars. A DB6 brings together the sensual faired-in headlights and the brutal "kamm" style truncated rear body. With the Vantage engine power, it delivers incredible driving pleasures.
Ferrari 308 GTB polyester (Vetroresina in italian) : the lightest, most powerful and the rarest of all 308 GTB versions. This example had only 35.000 km and was delivered with its original key set and booklet...Sold on our Stand at Rétromobile in Paris.
This Lamborghini 400 GT 2+2 was sold by Autodrome to the Swiss Slavic Collection. A rare Classic Lamborghini, in perfect condition... The one-off Miura SVJ Spider was presented on the Lamborghini Stand at the 1981 Geneva Motor Show, along with the Jalpa and with the new version of the LP400S. Long after, Autodrome found and acquired and restored this magnificent automobile, actually the very last Miura ever displayed by Lamborghini...
A magnificent Lamborghini Countach LP400 is going to be shipped to its new owner.
Our client is based in Asia, and bought this car from us on a phone call, without
seeing it. Trust is the foundation of our activity. The lucky new owner has
actually acquired a fine automobile worth much more than the price paid.
This mighty
Aston Martin V8-Vantage Le Mans is one of only 40 ever manufactured.
Enthusiasts consider the "Le Mans" as the very last true Aston Martin, the
swan's song of a legendary make. With 612 BHP, it is the most powerful
road-legal Aston Martin ever. A low-mileage, one royal owner car...
This FERRARI 365 GT4 2+2 sold by Autodrome is the Brussels 1976 official show-car. With only 48.000
true km, it's possibly the best example in the world.
A Vantage version of the wonderful DBS ; it has now reached twice the market value of the standard DBS. A
perfect LHD example like this one is a gem.
LAMBORGHINI Diablo VT,
already a classic and still very affordable. For such a perfect example, the
price that one pays is forgotten quickly.
This Lamborghini Miura was sold unrestored, and completely dismanteld. The external bodywork and paintwork
was supervised by Autodrome Paris in the famous Carrosserie Lecoq workshop.
ROLLS-ROYCE stands for perfection - especially for cars made before BMW took
over the legendary British manufacturer.
This example sold by Autodrome is so
perfect that it was chosen by Classic Cars Magazine as the reference for their
article about the Rolls-Royce Corniche history.
FERRARI 288 GTO, forerunner of the F40 and much, much rarer: only 272 were ever
built (versus 1400 F40). our client was looking for the best example on the
market : Autodrome Paris could offer it.
A rare
Diablo SE (40 built) - this is #01 (Geneva Motorshow) and also the last Diablo ever delivered by the factory
!

to the Sant'Agata firm, sold this very
last true
Lamborghini new to its
first owner...

Monaco.
