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'.

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

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
).
