It’s easy for an auction house to exaggerate when describing a treasure trove for sale but, in the case of our lead story, it’s hard to overstate the thrill of Artcurial’s latest find: a French chateau hiding 60 genuine barn-finds, ranging from Bugatti and Hispano-Suiza to Delahaye, Delage, Maserati and Ferrari – all in various stages of decay. And then, under a pile of magazines, the discovery of the long-lost Ferrari 250 GT SWB California Spider that once belonged to Alain Delon. “Like Lord Carnarvon entering Tutankhamun’s tomb” is how Artcurial’s Matthieu Lamoure described the feeling. Read the story and judge for yourself.
