Pick up a Benz during Beaulieu!


Calling all fans of the three-pointed star. We suggest you take a look at the digital catalogue of RM Auctions, who will have their next auction at Battersea Evolution in London on September 8 and 9 (the Beaulieu weekend!). Lots of cars, but the main attraction will be the sale of a fabulous Mercedes-Benz collection, started by an European gentleman. All in all there are 75 lots, spanning Mercedes production of eighty years. There are many post-war cars to choose from, but concentrating on the pre-wars, the range goes from (a replica of) the earliest 1886 Benz Patent Motorwagen to a stately 1941 Mercedes-Benz 230 Limousine. However, we do have our personal favorites. How about the rare 1936 170H Saloon; or the tempting 1936 170V Cabriolet; or the magnificent 1936 500K Cabriolet; or the xxx? Perhaps the xxx??? Oh come on! The list seems endless. You better pick your own favorite from lots 101 to 174.

They were never seen in public, and have been acquired quietly during recent years. Sad but true. Eduardo "Eddie" Relvas, Portugal
