Broad Arrow Auctions is celebrating the success of its second annual Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este Auction.
Italian marques were firm favourites, including Ferrari and Lamborghini, led by a stunning 2023 Ferrari Daytona SP3. A single-owner example displaying only 743 kilometres and finished in Rosso Magma Tri-Coat over a Blu Elettrico Alcantara interior, it sold for €6.250.000. A rare ‘non-cat, non-adjust’ 1990 Ferrari F40 achieved a price of €2.931.250, while one of the most exciting and intense bidding battles of the auction saw a beautiful 1968 Ferrari 330 GTS find a new home after selling for €1.918.750.
Lamborghini models that sparked a great deal of interest among collectors and enthusiasts included a 2022 Countach LPI 800-4 that sold for €1.581.250, a six-speed manual 2009 Murcielago LP640-4 Coupé which achieved €805.000 and a true icon of supercar history, a 1990 Countach 25th Anniversario that sold for €523.750.
An impressive selection of Japanese collector cars included the Ultimate R34 Skyline GT-R Collection, consisting of five remarkable examples of the fast and furious icon, which together reached a price of €1.517.000. These iconic machines shared the spotlight with a seldom-seen NSX Type S that achieved €207.000.
Other highlights included a 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder Weissach Package that sold for €2.256.250, a stalwart of the international collector-car market in a 1957 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing Coupé that found a new home at €1.637.500 and a 1968 Bizzarrini 5300 GT Strada that achieved €820.000 immediately following the sale.
The auction also featured some extremely unique Italian models, fitting for the venue, including a characterful 1963 Fiat 600 Torpedo Marina by Vignale which could well be heading to a beach house after selling for €281.750 and a 1977 Fiat Bertone 850 T Visitors Bus, which created one of the most exhilarating bidding battles of the auction, and the most appreciation from those in the rotunda, selling well over its upper estimate at €189.750.
