8 raucous, pedigreed race cars up for grabs from RM Sotheby's this November | Hagerty Media

[Hagerty]

If you're anywhere near the South of France on November 19 this year, you might just want to take a day and swing by Circuit Paul Ricard. No, there's no Grand Prix on, but there are "75 of the the finest racing and road cars in the world" all crossing the auction block at no reserve, according to RM Sotheby's.

Aw, dude, you've ruined it...

Interstellar reconnaissance of a spectacular light purple paint! I have to paint something this color one of these days, maybe a diesel pickup!

to help repair it when it broke down;

it were a Ford in CanAm, the start of a bad C6 bar joke which pretty much summed up its racing history;

Them pesky aliens are everywhere anymore!

While I’m not an expert on UFO’s I did see one, confirmed by my wife who was with me at the time and by my two sons who were at home at the time, they even made drawings of it.
I can tell you that is a UFO.
Sorry I don’t know the Make/Model/Year.

What an amazing collection.

Wow, I wonder if they would take an offer on all 76? LOL I went to RM Sotheby's website and they currently have 62 cars listed, but the cars do not have any details yet, coming soon. There are 3 F! cars, I would like to have all 3, but none earth shattering - 90 Arrows, 99 Prost, and 77 March, no race history as no details yet. Many amazing street cars as well with the highlight, IMHO, a Red 1981 Countach LP400 S. Based on the serial number it is one of the last Series 2 cars. No other details available yet but in the picture there is no wing. You just don't see any LP400 S coming up for sale, what this car goes for will interest me as I have a red series 2 with wing..
What an amazing collection of race and road cars, I need to make a trip to the south of France this fall!!!

XJ 220 race car? Yes, please!!!

[erne75]

The XJ 220 and the Lister would make for a killer all Brit race car collection!

[stevecobb45]

Make mine the 1955 Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta Competizione (in my dreams that is).

[MATTMERICA]

A truly different world for the filthy rich. Any of the Ferraris would work for me, I am easy lol

[LagunaMike]

Another Honker story. . . Mario did a couple laps at Road America in this "POS", came into the pits and refused to go back out in it!!! It sat in the paddock the rest of the weekend!

[Real_Life]

The Rover-engined "Jaguar" XJ220? Ah yes, the world's fastest racing MG! (Just stirring things up a bit!, now where did I put my hat?)

[cobrafia]

The tin foil one?

[SAG]

For my taste, Old Italian.
working on the Ferrari's is "instilled in my thought process"

[Zephyr]

Further proof that the worst thing that ever happened to race cars of all types was when they started painting ads on them.

[chrlsful]

no time or money for the track (other pursuits) but U can give me the Ferrari GTB & GT for the nxt grocery run and commute to work (1 for each)...

[cigarmerchant]

Kudos on the photography for this article. Many great views of each car with final photos showing a full side view of each.

What, no five figure cars on offer?

[Gary_Bechtold]

So many nice cars here. Saleen S7, Jaguar XJ220, Ferrari's. Yum!
