HVMC’s latest auction is sure to set Monaco alight

If there was ever a more fitting location for the sale of top-flight collector cars, then Monaco may well be it. At HVMC’s Classic Collection of Monte-Carlo Auction, the offerings are as glamorous and alluring as the backdrop, with a selection sure to please any collector…

From the 187-lot catalogue, featuring cars, bikes, boats, and automobilia, our interest was first piqued by the Bahama Yellow over Blue 1979 Aston Martin V8 Volante (est. 130,000–150,000 euros), a refreshingly vibrant colour scheme for such a gentlemanly chariot, and then by the 1975 Citroën Mehari (est. 6,000–8,000 euros) finished in a not too dissimilar hue, which would surely make a fine pairing with the Aston. Amongst the other gems crossing the block on 1 July, the mid-engined modern classic 2006 Renault Clio V6 (est. 45,000–55,000 euros) and tantalising turquoise 1960 Chevrolet Corvette (est. 65,000–75,000 euros) would also be on our shopping list. You can find our 10 favourite lots from the sale below or, alternatively, browse the entire catalogue in the Classic Driver Market.
