Le Mans Classic 2022
I was last week at Le Mans Classic. If I went trice at the 24h du Mans, it was the first time for Le Mans Classic. Clearly it is a great great automotive event especially since the weather was good
A few photos before giving you a more complete report, but it will take a little time...
There was the Acturial auction with a big lot of this beautiful Maserati A6 GCS 53 Fiandri Spyder which was sold for €2,950,000 excluding costs for an estimate of €3,250,000 / €3,650,000
But also Talbot Lago to take back (Here a T26 Record Sport Sedan)
The visit to the paddock is great, a few models taken at random, there are so many extraordinary cars
Alfa Romeo Giulia TZ 1965
Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Monza 1934
Ferrari 312 P 1969
Aston Martin DB4 GT 1960
we can see them in detail and hear them adjust / rise in temperature...
The V12 of a 1953 Ferrari 250 MM
The Jaguar XK of a C-Type
There are thousands of cars (8500 announced) in the different clubs, with for example :
Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato
Jaguar XJ220
but also simpler cars like this beautiful Samba Rallye
I was with a friend from Club Lotus
and we did laps of the 24h circuit of Le Mans, clearly, it's extraordinary
but hey, Le Mans Classic is above all races with extraordinary cars (I know I'm repeating myself, but I don't have any other adjectives to qualify this)
Jaguar Type D and Ferrari 250 Breadvan on the pregrid
Ford GT40s on the Le Mans type start
Some photos before the Dunlop Footbridge
As you can see from the tire tracks above, they attacked, a little too much for sure...
As you can see there was a lot of English
I'll put more pictures but not right away...

Re: Le Mans Classic 2022
The other pictures of Le Mans Classic 2022 starting with the cars at the Actuarial auction
The star was this Maserati A6 GCS 53 Fiandri Spyder which was sold 2.950.000 € without costs (3.418.000 € with the cost) for an estimate between 3.250.000 € and 3.650.000 €.
The car was very nice but far from perfect
The other Maserati :
Maserati Bora 4.7l from 1972 which did not find a buyer
Maserati 3500 GT from 1959 sold for €143,043 including fees
Maserati Ghibli SS 4.9l from 1972 which did not find a buyer

Re: Le Mans Classic 2022
Some French cars with in the foreground a Delahaye 135 M Cabriolet luxe by Chapron from 1950 sold for €84,632 including fees and in the background a Delahaye 148 L cabriolet three positions by Chapron from 1939 sold for €88,208 including fees
There were several Talbot Lago including this 1950 Talbot Lago Record T26 Coach over-profiled sold for €82,248
To finish a short visit to Germany with this 1958 Mercedes 300 SL Roadster sold for €1,025,120 including fees
The paint was nice from a distance but far from nice with scratches, blisters and even drips.
Generally the cars except for a few were not in perfect condition and if for a car at 10,000 € we can understand it, for cars close to 100,000 € or even 1,000,000 € it is a bit sad...

Re: Le Mans Classic 2022
Wow! Some proper Jags there! Thanks for sharing!
We have a pretty nice show here first weekend in August but I’m going to miss that unfortunately so these pics are welcome.

Re: Le Mans Classic 2022
After the Jaguar, the Alfa Romeo
The very old ones, with a 1931 Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Type "Le Mans" presented by Alfa Romeo
Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Type "Le Mans" 1934
Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Monza 1934
Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Type LM 1931
Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Monza 1934
And to finish an 8C finally red in the race (well, he returned to the pits in reverse at the end of the race)
