Top 5: Cars for sale at Bonhams Grand Palais sale in Paris
Despite taking place across the channel, the Bonhams sale Les Grandes Marques au Grand Palais in Paris on 9 February will see a strong selection of great British classics go under the hammer. In fact, more than 30 vehicles from seven famous British marques will be offered, including Aston Martin, Bentley, Rolls-
Royce, Jaguar and Austin-Healey.
Rolls-Royce Series III
This 1965 Series III was delivered new to Mme la Comtesse Lucrece de Stephanos. The original correspondence between Mme la Comtesse and Rolls-Royce accompanies the car, including a letter of complaint stating that it was delivered without an ashtray. The car was favourably received at the Concorso d’Eleganza at Villa d’Este, one of the world’s most prestigious motoring events.
Top estimate: £367,000
