- Bonhams The Paris Sale - The Bonhams auction has moved to a new location on the outskirts of Paris, in Saint-Cloud, specifically at the Polo Club. The star of the show is undoubtedly the Mercedes 500K (Type W29) with a Vanvooren-built coupé body—the first time I’ve seen this type of body on a 500K. Other rare finds include a right-hand-drive Spyker C8 Spyder, a Porsche 930 Turbo Flachbau, a stunning Chrysler Thomas Special, and an Aston Martin Lagonda Series 2, as eccentric as ever. Other highlights of this sale include a Citroën Chapron Majesty, a Bentley Continental R Mulliner Millennium Edition, a Ford GT MkII, and a BMW M1.
