The Milou collection - feedback

Yesterday I attended the auction of the Milou collection in Ladenburg.
A nice setting in a romantic German village.
The auction itself;
- the feedback about the Heuers I wrote already yesterday evening in another post
- The prices of the cars have hit the sky
The burgundy red targa 40k (without premium and import taxes) a good buy
The siffert 2.2 S 100k - looked very good from a distance, but badly restored bodywork - ok for the emotional value and the extra engine - hope for the buyer that at least the base is solid.
the yellow 2.4S 145k - a real headturner, but IMHO not worth the 200k (after premium and import taxes)
- the rest of the auction was surprising as many lots reached very high prices. Certainly everything with a connection to racing and the 356. I was lucky to buy some brochures and a framed poster at a reasonable price
PS the link to the live auctioneers website dosn't reflect the real bids, but only the estimates
Best regards from Belgium,
Gianni
