“From the Maserati A6 GCS, delivered new in France, to the Airstream caravan, this edition of Le Mans Classic promises a spectacle as exciting in the auction tent as on the 24 Hour circuit!”

The sale will feature several collections, each more grandiose than the last, including that of Pierre Héron, which is made of Delahaye, Grégoire and Talbot, and that of a Monegasque enthusiast of Mercedes, Bentley, Jaguar, and Porsche. 19 motorbikes will be offered for sale, including the exceptional collection of a motorcycle enthusiast who had gathered very fine machines such as Harley-Davidson, Ducati, Aermacchi, Brough Superior and MV Agusta.

Finally, the exclusive collaboration established a few weeks ago between Renault and Artcurial Motorcars will also be celebrated during this event. The Le Mans Classic sale marks the first stage of this partnership, with eight emblematic vehicles on offer in The Renault Icons section.
