Catawiki - Italian Classic Car - 4 October 2019





While it’s a beautiful Basalt Black Porsche Carrera GT showing just 4,300 miles on the clock that spearheads Silverstone Auctions’ ‘Sale of Ferrari & Porsche 2019’ with an estimate of £600,000–650,000, our pick of the impressive catalogue is a Ferrari 599 GTB.

Last weekend, the picturesque Goodwood Motor Circuit in West Sussex sweltered in the heat of an unusually warm late-summer spell of weather, not that the tens of thousands of people gathered for the Goodwood Revival minded. The golden sun that shone throughout only served to stir up the spectacle and, miraculously, make it particularly special.

Started over 30 years ago with a small selection of rare Mercedes-Benzes, the Sáragga Collection has morphed into a 130-strong assembly of classic and modern cars that reflect the discerning and eclectic tastes of its Portuguese owner. And now, it will be sold by RM Sotheby’s entirely without reserve, so if you’re planning an autumn weekend getaway, the picturesque town of Alcácer do Sal should definitely be on your radar.
