    About 35 years ago a Mercedes 500K roadster was discovered in Walsall, West Midlands belonging to a local butcher. He had inherited it from an Aunt and it had languished in a garage for decades. It was in need of restoration but complete in every detail. He parted with it to a car dealer who gave him £150K At auction the car fetched half a million, so it makes me wonder how much the winner this year is worth. Well and truly a multi million dollar car no doubt.

    • @RobertLewisHUB
      @RobertLewisHUB  ปีที่แล้ว

      Amazing find! Barn and garage funds are becoming rarer and rarer as the values have increased considerably. Most of these 500/540k Roadsters sell privately (especially the more expensive ones), so it’s difficult to put an exact number on it. The buyers have blank check money and one thing is for sure, winning the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance only raises the already robust value. Kentucky Derby winning race horse pedigree 😎
