The end of the klassiekerbubbel it is not yet in sight.

A phenomenon that has been occurring and still is, the bubble is not cracked: classic cars for mega absurd amounts of the hand are done at auctions. Frequently we see records passing by with dizzying amounts. Big chance that the above DB3S also a record breaking.

The racer from 1954, was originally built for David Brown. The boss of Aston Martin at that time. The car had the private collection of Brown as a destination, but finally found the classic on the circuit. The Brit was driven by legends like Stirling Moss and Roy Salvadori. A story that, in combination with the exclusivity of the classic, the auction price will detonate.

The auction will be in the month of may in the Aston Martin Works factory to Newport Pagnell. The auctioneers at Bonhams expect a yield of only about 7,5 to 8,5 million euro. It is not unprecedented that such a sum was paid for a DB3S.
