The Poltu Quatu Classic on the glamorous island of Sardinia is so much more than a concours d’elegance – it’s a small automotive festival celebrating the beauty, glamour and significance of not only the four-wheeled exhibits, but also their owners and the majestic location in which they’re displayed.
After the lockdown due to Covid-19, Finarte has resumed to collect extraordinary cars. The next auction will be in Autumn, and the date and details will be defined based on the trend of Covid-19. The 1000 FINARTE 2020 will include cars whose chassis number ran the Mille Miglia (1927/1957) or eligible for re-enactments. At the same time another free-theme auction will be held.
To be updated, we invite you to check the Finarte’s Automotive website. Finarte is still open for consignment and we are collecting for the upcoming auction a variety of models: from the rare and particular car with a historical palmarès, to the instant classic that has already become a collection piece. Currently the display order on the website is temporary.
We inform you that it is possible to reserve a slot to view the cars.
Our experts are available for confidential and free evaluations upon appointment.
You might remember we already featured the one-off Ferrari GTC4Lusso Azzurra, which was designed for, and largely by, Garage Italia Customs’ director Lapo Elkann, on Classic Driver. Well, now the elegant two-tone V12 is being offered for sale by Wannenes at its Classic Cars & Motorcycles, Youngtimers and Automobilia auction on 16 July in Milan, along with a matching 2017 Abarth 595 Competizione.
Faced with only a handful of sponsors and a shoestring budget, there was only one car with which the Frenchman Denis Grabowski and his co-driver Philippe Cheron were realistically going to contest the Paris-Dakar Rally in 1982: a Lada Niva.

Early car highlights and additional details for Online Only: SHIFT / Monterey, including bidding terms of business, will be announced in the coming weeks. Interested consignors are invited to contact an RM Sotheby’s car specialist to discuss entering their important car.
