This 1989 Ford Sierra RS500 Cosworth is a Group A-specification example that was not raced in period. It was prepared by Elio Imberti of Team Imberti and is presented in a livery replicating the RS500 that competed in the 1988 Spa 24 Hours. Its engine produces 460bhp and 413lb ft of torque, paired with a Getrag five-speed manual transmission. It is also equipped with AP Racing four-piston brake calipers. The car is eligible for a range of Historic touring car series, including the Peter Auto Heritage Touring Cup 2, Motor Racing Legends Historic Touring Car Challenge, Tourenwagen Golden Ära and the Italian Historic Car Championship. It’s estimated at between €180k and €220k
Delivered new by Auto-König in Munich on October 21, 1983, this Bianco White Ferrari 308 GTS Quattrovalvole was specified with factory air-conditioning and a roof spoiler. The car is accompanied by its original manuals and stamped service book. Early maintenance was carried out by Michel Weber in Offenbach am Main up to approximately 25,000km, followed by servicing with Ferrari specialist Peter Rosenmeier in Markgröningen at around 26,000km in 1996. In 2000, the car was acquired by a Munich-based owner and maintained through Auto-König and Schürer, a specialist in Italian and British cars. A major service was carried out in 2013, including timing-belt replacement.
Further work in 2016 at approximately 48,223km included timing belts, fluid changes, brake inspection, air-conditioning servicing and repair to the left front fender. The 308 GTS was subject to TÜV inspection and a professional appraisal, both recorded in the file. In 2018, after approximately 35 years in Germany, it was exported to Belgium with around 48,665km recorded. It has covered approximately 500km since, and is estimated at between €70k and €90k.
This Cadillac Eldorado Brougham is one of just 400 produced in 1957. Finished in its original colours of Deauville Grey over a Light Grey Bayou cloth and leather interior, it is offered with a copy of its factory build sheet from the GM Heritage Archives. It offered without reserve and estimated at between €80k and €90k.
This 1970 Abarth 1000 Biposto Corsa SE 018 made its competition debut on May 31, 1970, at the Castione Baratti–Neviano Arduini hill climb, where Works driver Johannes Ortner took victory. Assembled that same year, chassis X001/O is believed to have been among the few SE 018 examples campaigned by the factory Works team during the model’s early competition life. Following Abarth’s integration into Fiat, the car passed to Osella Squadra Corse, which continued to run a number of the marque’s competition cars. In May 1971, it was entered in the 55th Targa Florio by Parma Corse for Mario Barone and Maurizio Campaini. The pairing finished 14th overall and won the Sport Prototipi class up to 1000cc. Barone subsequently campaigned chassis X001/O in hill climbs including Trento-Bondone and Cesana-Sestriere, before the car returned to Osella.
During its competition career, the Abarth is understood to have been updated by Baistrocchi to a belt-driven configuration, a modification that distinguishes it from other known surviving examples. The car is thought to have remained active in competition until 1978, passing through the hands of several drivers. It later entered Italian collector ownership and was acquired approximately a decade ago by its current owner. A complete mechanical restoration was subsequently carried out by Facetti, after which it has been maintained in preserved condition. It’s estimated at between €150k and €180k.
Finished in Black over a Sportsman Red interior, this 1954 Chevrolet Corvette has been restored and retains its correct 235ci (3.9-litre) ‘Blue Flame’ inline-six engine. Black is an exceptionally rare finish for a 1954 Corvette, with fewer than one percent of Roadsters believed to have been specified in this colour. It is not known whether this car was originally delivered in Black from the GM St Louis plant. Originally sourced from the United States, the Corvette is offered with a 2015 evaluation from Expertisebureau Hermanns NV Belgique, along with a copy of a Corvette Operator’s Manual, and is estimated at between €60k and €80k.
Finished in Imolagelb over Onyx cloth and leather, this Audi RS4 Avant was first registered to Audi Grimm GmbH & Co in Hamburg on April 24, 2001, where it was initially used in-house before passing into private ownership. The car was specified with a range of factory options, including a glass sunroof, satellite navigation, cruise control, CD changer, TV reception and car phone. From new, it was also fitted with a series of documented performance upgrades, increasing output from the factory-rated 375bhp to approximately 434bhp. These included 19-inch BBS alloy wheels, Bilstein suspension with H&R springs, Digi-Tec stainless steel exhaust system and ECU tuning, all recorded in the car’s registration papers.
Further modifications were added in subsequent years, including Porsche GT3 brakes with 380mm front discs and yellow calipers, a MOV’IT rear-brake conversion, a boost gauge and a Sportec short-shift kit. The warranty and service booklet records Audi dealer servicing between 2002 and 2010, including entries from Audi Grimm in Hamburg and Autohaus Levermann in Balve. A service carried out in April 2010 at 60,505km incorporated major work including replacement of the timing belt and water pump, as well as new brake fluid and spark plugs. Used sparingly in recent years, the Audi RS4 Avant has covered 74,431km and has received a further timing-belt change in preparation for sale. It’s estimated at between €70k and €100k and is offered at no reserve.
Delivered new through Aston Martin’s American agent Peter Satori to Mr Isaac Hart in Beverly Hills, according to a guarantee document issued in March 1956, this left-hand-drive Aston Martin DB2/4 MkI was originally finished in Crimson Red with a Beige leather interior. The car is a matching-numbers example, with chassis, engine and body confirmed by the original guarantee documentation. It has since been restored in its original colour combination, as has the interior.
Following restoration, the car has been stored and has covered fewer than 50km. It is reported to start and run, and has been driven over a short distance by a member of the auction team, with no issues noted. The car is offered with its original tool kit, including the Thor hammer, and a Belgian technical inspection certificate valid through February 2028. It is estimated at between €120k and €140k.
