Spent the day at the Essen motorshow this past Sunday after a pleasant 2 hour drive from Amsterdam.

Pictures are worth many words and so I will be brief. The cars were great, the girls hot and the show well organised. Great variety from new cars to the classics to customs to memorabilia.

Great stuff, David, thanks. I still can't stand bespoilered Boxers - they're interesting because they were a product of the time, but my word did they ruin the lines!

Glad to see Nick Mason's GTO is out and about again.

Fabulous shots.

beautiful cars.

Some interesting prices asked at the show:

Bespoiled Koenig BB asking €115,000
GTO recreation using 330 GT as the base, asking €290,000 (last picture).

A great way to spend the day and get some Christmas shopping done at the same time. Some more pictures:

This looks like the same car as in picture 1, David. This means that they're masquarading this car as Nick Mason's GTO (same number plate, same number 22 that Nick sports often) ? Or do you mean the last picture in post #1?

How was the car presented? I hate it when it is not clearly indicated it is a replica.

The 330 GT is pictured in the last picture in post#1, the other pictures are of the real GTO. The 330 GT was presented for sale for €290,000 as a 1965 330 GT. The world's most expensive 330 GT 2+2?

Great pictures!

Possibly, although I think I've seen an advert for a 1959 TR recreation based on one, which I think is a similar price.

One nice looking example, still in its original body, sold on Monday at the Bonhams auction for £44k. Very nice price if the car was up to stratch. I was very tempted to bid on that car but figured buying 4 cars in 18 months was a bit much. And I think there will be more bargains to be had in the next 12 - 24 months.

That looks like a great 330 in a lovely colour. And the price seems to be way less (half if converted into Euros?) than what the market was asking just a few months ago. I agree that there will be more bargains to be had-fear and loathing in the market.

Remember that blue 330GT2+2 I drove in August? Asking price was EUR115k... But it was probably worth 90k, even then.

Interesting. I also took a long look at the Bonhams 330 GT 2+2. Looked to be a very nice car reasonably priced. Given the recent purchase of the Daytona, not an option right now.

Great minds think alike, Boxer. But let's not bid on the same car at the same time, OK - we might be doing ourselves a disservice starting an internal FL bidding war.

Not to worry, if I was seriously going to go after a car at auction, you guys would know well in advance
