c.1900 Bruneau Quadricycle, believed the sole survivor of only three made.

Thought those of you here looking for a new second-hand car might be interested in what you could pick up at Bonham's The Golden Age of Motoring Sale '1886-1939'. :D

When I was a lad, I built Meccano cars more substantial than that!

Some stunning vehicles for sale and some of the prices at the bottom of the list seem very reasonable.

Yup - about a decade back they were about a quarter of that price. Same goes for a 246 Dino.

That De Dion looks nice though, and bear in mind these are guide prices, so be interesting to see what the sell through rate actually is.

Think I might just be able to afford one of the Cuneo paintings if they don't far exceed their guides :D

Folks may be interested to see how much the cars that sold went for in last year's sale (if it doesn't say "Sold for ..." then it didn't sell ;)).

And lots more previous vehicle auctions can be found by filter by departments Motor Cars and Motorcycles on their auction results page.
