THE PAST BELONGS TO US!
The Le Mans 24-Hours race writes history and Le Mans Classic tells the story! In 2018 Le Mans Classic will be staged for the ninth time as it is held on a biennial basis. The event created by the Automobile Club de l’Ouest and Peter Auto almost 20 years ago has become a red-letter date in the world of the motor car. Rendezvous after rendezvous this fantastic retrospective has conquered the public, the entrants, the makes clubs, guardians of our marvellous automotive heritage, as well as exhibitors who flock to the circuit in increasingly large numbers. In 2016 there were 123 000 spectators, 600 cars on the track and 8500 cars brought along by the clubs. So what more is needed to confirm the growing success of this meeting the second biggest motoring event in France in terms of spectator attendance?
In 70 years of the history of the greatest endurance event, the 2018 Le Mans Classic will celebrate the 40th anniversary of Alpine’s victory in the 24 Hours, the 25th of the historic triple of the Peugeot 905, some of which will add excitement to the Group C race that has been the curtain-raiser since the last meeting. And 70 years ago Porsche really came of age with the launch of its first series production car, the famous 356. There will also be numerous celebrations of other iconic makes and models starting with the 50th anniversary of Ligier, the Ferrari 365 Daytona, the BMW 2002…
Le Mans Classic extends the past, which is not forgotten but has to be cultivated: a past that belongs to us which must be lived. “For mankind the past bears a striking resemblance to the future. By telling him what was, isn’t it always telling him what will be?” said the great French thinker Honoré de Balzac who influenced the writers of his day and the following centuries.

SIX GRIDS, 24 HOURS OF ON-TRACK ACTION To be a racing driver is definitely for most boys - and some girls - a childhood dream. But many are called and few chosen! Historic motor racing gives them the opportunity to fulfil their dream. Furthermore, Le Mans Classic offers the ultimate experience: to compete on the long 24 Hours of Le Mans layout, facing the world’s most famous straight… the Mulsanne Straight.
As the aim is to offer spectators and entrants equally-matched fields in terms of performance and historic pertinence, the 500 racing cars are divided up into six grids, each of which corresponds to a particular period. The cars selected are those that have taken part in the Le Mans 24 Hours between 1923 and 1981. Priority is given to cars that have actually raced in the event in their particular era. For each grid 10 reserves take part in the day and night-time practice sessions to be ready to fill a place left vacant by the withdrawal or retirement of another car. A Le Mans-type start as used between 1925 and 1969 will be given for grids 1-2-3-4. Flying starts will be used for the others.
GRID 1 (1923-1939) Models representing famous makes which shone on the Le Mans circuit in the pre-war era are back on the scene of their exploits. These include Aston Martin Speed Models, 4,5L Blower Bentleys, BMW 328s, Bugatti Type 35s, Delage 3 Litre Sports, Delahaye 135 Ss, Lagonda LG45s, Mercedes-Benz SSKs, Morgan 4/4s, Talbot 105s, etc. This grid presents a wide variety of makes and models transforming it into an unprecedented retrospective of this period.
GRID 2 (1949-1956) The post-war period marked a turning point in car technology with better developed engines and more attention paid to aerodynamics. The result was faster cars entered by increasingly professional works teams. Henceforth, the on-track battles between entrants were much closer. It’s this epoch that the drivers in this grid at the wheel of Aston Martin DBs, Austin Healey 100 Ms, Jaguar D-Types, Lancia Aurelias, Lotus XIs, Maserati 250 Ss, Porsche 550s, Triumph TR2s, etc.
GRID 3 (1957-1961) AC Ace Bristosl, Aston Martin DB4 GTs, Austin Healey 3000s, Chevrolet Corvette C1s, Ferrari 250 GT Berlinettas, Lotus XVs, Maserati T61 Birdcages, Porsche 356s, etc. Among cars to watch out for the spectators is the unique Lister Knobbly and the famous Ferrari 250 GT Breadvan.
GRID 4 (1962-1965) This grid illustrates the increase in the number of America-built cars entered for the Sarthe event as it includes several GT40s, Shelby Cobra 289s Shelby GT 350s and Chevrolet Corvettes. Back in that era the main opposition to the American cars came from European machines and it is again the case. Leading the charge is Ferrari with a 250 LM and several 275 GTBs. There are also E-Type Jaguars including chassis 49 FXN, the low-drag special built as part of the run of 12 lightweight cars produced in 1963. Porsche will be represented by several 904s. Two Alpines will also be present with one M63 (the first car developed by the Dieppe firm for sports car racing) and one M64.
GRID 5 (1966-1971) This grid reunites the legendary Ferrari 512s and Porsche 917s in a remake of the film Le Mans with Steve McQueen! It also includes Chevron B19s, Ford GT40 MkIIs, Lola T70s and the fabulous turbine-powered Howmet TX. Alpine will be represented by two A210s, which won their category at Le Mans from 1966 to 1969.
GRID 6 (1972-1981) This grid is a mix of major makes (BMW, Ferrari, Porsche) and small constructors (Duckam's, Moynet, Tecma). It comprises a number of models that marked their epoch, including the 1976 Inaltera, the first prototype designed by Jean Rondeau, which is also on the entry list with Henri Pescarolo and Julien Beltoise (whose father was one of the team’s works drivers at the time) at the wheel. Other cars that will attract a lot of attention are the Gulf Mirage Gr7 and a Ford Gran Torino from the very popular NASCAR Championship.
10 FORMER WINNERS AT THE START Among the thousand drivers from more than 30 nationalities who will be behind the wheel during the ninth staging of Le Mans Classic on 6-7-8 July on the big Le Mans circuit are ten former winners of the Le Mans 24 Hours: Jürgen Barth (D), Romain Dumas (F), Loïc Duval (F), Jan Lammers (NL), Gérard Larrousse (F), Klaus Ludwig (D), Jochen Mass (D), Stéphane Ortelli (F), Henri Pescarolo (F) and Marko Werner (D). In all they have racked up a total of 19 victories and 147 participations in the greatest endurance race in the world between 1967 and 2018. The outstanding figure among them is Henri Pescarolo who holds the record for the most starts with 33 crowned by four victories.
Former F1 drivers will take part in the event: René Arnoux (1965 Shelby Cobra 289 in Grid 4 and 1979 BMW M1 Procar in Grid 6), Jacques Laffite (1966 Lola T70 Mk III in Grid 5), and Paul Belmondo (1981 Porsche 935 in Grid 6). Several great names in motor sport will also compete: Jean Ragnotti, Emmanuel Collard (1999 Toyota GT-One in Global Endurance Legends), Alain Serpaggi (1978 Alpine A443 in Grid 6), Guy Fréquelin (1964 René Bonnet Djet in Grid 4) and Willi Kauhsen (Porsche 917 in Grid 5).
The majority of these drivers will take part in a public conference on Friday at 14:00 in the village. It will also be attended by Pierre Fillon (President of the Automobile Club de l’Ouest) and Patrick Peter (founder of Peter Auto). This will give fans the opportunity to put their questions to the drivers via the Le Mans Classic Facebook page: https://fr-fr.facebook.com/LeMansClassic/. The host of this conference broadcast live on the same page will ask the drivers the questions chosen. When it’s over an autograph session with the drivers present will be held in front of the E-Bay boutique.

GROUP C RACING KICKS OFF THE EVENT!
Following the success of this series in 2016, the Group C Racing cars will be on the track for two qualifying sessions (Friday) and a 45-minute race on Saturday as a curtain-raiser to the 9th event.
The Group C regulations led to the production of fabulous cars which wrote some of the most glorious pages in the history of the Le Mans 24 Hours and the World Endurance Championship. Early on, the Porsche 956s dominated despite stiff opposition from the Lancia LC2s, and then in 962 configuration came up against much tougher rivals with the arrival of Jaguar, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota, Nissan and Mazda. Alongside the major manufacturers small constructors like Cougar, Dome, Rondeau, Spice and WM could still pull off the odd coup thanks to an intelligent interpretation of the regulations based essentially on fuel consumption. Group C was abandoned in the early 90s after a brief cohabitation with the Sport 3.5s (Peugeot 905, Jaguar XJR-14, Toyota TS010, etc.), but that era is still considered as the Golden Age of endurance racing by the majority of the specialists of this branch of motor sport.
The Group C cars are modern looking with their rounded windscreens and their doors in elytron, and they exert an incredible fascination on all generations of fans with performances that are not too far off those of the current crop of LMP prototypes as their top speed was way north of 300 km/h! On Friday 8th and Saturday 9th July, a grid comprising the most beautiful Group Cs will be back on their favourite playing field in front of their dyed-in-the-wool aficionados, who are only too delighted to be able to see these endurance icons back in action on the track.
2018 innovation: The Group C Racing paddock will be located at the Garage Vert corner on the Bugatti circuit. It will be open to paddock pass holders.

PORSCHE CLASSIC RACE LE MANS NEW IN 2018
The 9th Le Mans Classic, which will be staged on 6-7-8 July 2018, will be the occasion for Porsche France to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the make’s sports cars with a race called Porsche Classic Race Le Mans.
Porsche France, in collaboration with Peter Auto, will assemble an exceptional field in which 70 historic Porsches will do battle on the mythical Le Mans circuit where the German manufacturer holds the historic record of 19 outright victories in the Le Mans 24 Hours.
This race will feature models ranging from the first 356s (1952) to the 2.8 RSR (1973). It will also include production versions like the 356 A and B series, 911 Ss, Ts and RSRs, 914/6s, as well as some prototypes from the 1950s and 60s invited to take part so the list of cars expected promises to be a rich one. The cars must have a valid technical passport to compete and entries will be sent in in the form of a dossier to be confirmed by Peter Auto. The list of eligible models is included in appendix.
A flying start will be given to the 55-minute Porsche Classic Race Le Mans on Saturday 7th July in the early afternoon. The previous day entrants will have two 30-minute qualifying sessions (the first in the morning and the second in the evening). The race will have two classifications – scratch and Index of Performance.
JAGUAR CLASSIC CHALLENGERaced on Saturday morning, the Jaguar Classic Challenge is open for all models of pre ’66 Jaguars: XK series, C and D-types, Mk1 and Mk11 saloons and pre-1966 E-types, thus ensuring big and varied grids of period Jaguars running to original specifications. In 2016, the victory went to British driver Andy Wallace (19 starts in the Le Mans 24 Hours including outright victory in 1988) at the wheel of the D-Type, which won the race in 1955 driven by Mike Hawthorn and Ivor Bueb.

CLUBS The many makes and multi-make clubs are key players and also guardians of the heritage of the motor car so they enjoy a choice welcome at Le Mans Classic.
Le Mans Classic is the opportunity for the car clubs to join the biggest European, perhaps even global, club gathering. In 2016, the Club Enclosure counted 120 car make clubs, together with 80 multi-make clubs as well as the private owners hosted in the Collectors' Enclosure. Thus over 8,500 cars told the automobile history until 1966, except a Happy Few that were built before this date.
And from Abarth to Volvo (in alphabetical order), every car manufacturer has an anniversary to celebrate... Some have a victory, preferably at the 24 Hours; some others the birth of a model which has enriched the make's history.
Track discovery laps, contests, picnics, and more entertainment are part of the program for these cars. The pinnacle is to be among the 24 handpicked automobiles displayed inside the Le Mans Heritage Club, which key is to present the proper car which raced in the 24 Hours from 1923 to these days.
GLOBAL ENDURANCE LEGENDS NEW IN 2018
Two 30 minutes demo sessions scheduled on Friday evening and Saturday morning will be dedicated to GTs and Prototypes from the 1990s to 2010 gathered by the Global Endurance Legends club. The opportunity to see once again exceptional cars in action on the track: McLaren F1 GTRs, Ferrari F40s, Saleen S7s, Chrysler Viper GTS-Rs, Venturi 600 LMs, Audi R8s, Peugeot 908s, etc.

LE MANS HERITAGE CLUB Located in the heart of the village, the Le Mans Heritage Club is Le Mans Classic sanctuary. The one into which can only enter 24 cars having participated in the Le Mans 24 Hours …
Only one key opens the door to this very private club; the presentation a car that has raced in the Le Mans 24 Hours at some time between 1923 and the present. They are displayed by class inside their private enclosure surrounded by white fencing in a refined ambiance. The Le Mans Heritage Club is one of the village highlights. An international jury made up of personalities from various fields has the challenging task to determine which one among the most glorious Le Mans racers is the most beautiful, the most interesting…
PORSCHE AND FFVE EXHIBITION To celebrate the 70th anniversary of the make’s sports cars, some of the most beautiful racers made by Porsche will be on display in an exhibition.
For the 40th anniversary of Alpine’s outright victory in the Le Mans 24 Hours, the “Fedération Française des Véhicles d’Epoque” is putting on a Retrospective of the most beautiful cars made in the Dieppe workshops since 1955.
LITTLE BIG MANS Value has nothing to do with you age, passion neither. For one hundred or so kids, from 7 to 12 years old, the dream has come true. With a "Le Mans style" start just in front of the grandstands, the budding drivers from all over the world leap into their racing cars encouraged by a standing ovation from the public! These hundred or so mini replicas of the racing cars entered in the Little Big Mans are displayed in their own paddock specially dedicated to the kids, activities included. The cars, produced in limited numbers or as one-offs, are powered by an internal combustion or electric engine and, for the most part, are faithful replicas of cars that have raced in the Le Mans 24 Hours. Among them are several Ferrari 330/P2s, Ford GT 40s, Chevrolet Corvettes, BMW 328s, Type 35 Bugattis, Porsche 550s, D-Type Jaguars, etc. On Saturday 7th July in the early afternoon, the young drivers will set off for a lap of the Bugatti circuit after a Le Mans-type start. On Sunday, they will get back behind the wheel to do a tour of the Le Mans Classic village. This event, which is great fun for young and old alike, will end with a prize giving ceremony in the village.
THE VILLAGE For those who wish to escape from the invasion of historic cars that transforms the circuit into the Le Mans Classic weekend, taking refuge in the village is the only solution. It is definitely the right place to pause for breath before continuing to stroll around and enjoy the eye-popping show put on by Le Mans Classic including the manufacturers’ displays and the different boutiques. The Welcome in the centre of the village is the headquarters for those who have chosen to live Le Mans Classic in VIP style. And something new is always happening like parades, prize givings, etc.
ENTERTAINMENT Le Mans Classic has refined its selection of entertainment and has again installed a Drive-In cinema in which several major classic films with the motor car as the main star will be shown. Many other forms of entertainment will be on hand like the Demon Drome, sixties-style dancers, itinerant orchestras, retro hairdressing salons, bowling pitches, a show by the Police & Patrimoine, Republican Garde brigades on their period motorbikes, tours in old buses and the exhibition devoted to the Nationale 7.
THE DRIVE-IN Who has never dreamed of going to a Drive-in, the famous open-air cinema? The fashion from the United States combined the two major national industries: the motor car and the cinema. Le Mans Classic, the huge festival of the motor car in all its forms, revives this ambience!
VENTE ARTCURIAL Le Mans Classic, one of the historic motoring hotspots, is the rightful location for an auction which is part and parcel of the Le Mans Classic highlights.
Collectors from all round the world and enthusiastic onlookers attend this sale. The first are there to buy at any price the beauty they are longing for; the others for the thrill even though they might jump at an unexpected bargain should the opportunity arise. That’s what the magic of auctions is all about!
In 2016, under the hammer of Maître Hervé Poulain in front of a packed house, the auction held by Artcurial Motorcars totalised 9 007 016 euros with 72% of the lots sold. The part devoted to collectors cars reached the figure of 8 717 752 euros, and the highest price achieved was 1.3 million euros for a client competition works Porsche 935 that had raced in the Le Mans 24 Hours three times. Ten out of the 115 lots in the auction reached a price of 200 000 euros, and three exceeded 500 000 euros.

LE MANS CLASSIC 2018
- 9th edition of the biggest historic race in the world
- Presentation of the RM 11-03 Le Mans Classic
- Sébastien Loeb, Felipe Massa and McLaren, Richard Mille guests of honor
From July 6 to 8, 2018 the legendary Le Mans Circuit will welcome hundreds of thousands spectators
coming to attend one of the greatest historic events in the world, Le Mans Classic, of which Richard
Mille is the official partner since its creation in 2002.
The sound of frenzied mechanics, the smell of burnt fuel and the infernal roaring of 6-cylinders, v8
and other humming V12 engines will animate this weekend, long-awaited by numerous enthusiasts.
Created almost 20 years ago and awarded with Two Motoring Event of the Year prizes at the International
Historic Motoring Awards in 2014 and 2016, Le Mans Classic gathered together some 123 000 spectators,
8,500 European clubs, 1,000 drivers from around the world and 200 exhibitors on the French circuit over
the weekend in 2016.
The 24 Hours of Le Mans has allowed thousands of cars to compete on the legendary 13 kilometer
circuit over the last 86 years. Le Mans Classic aims to revive these highlights of motorsport.The 500
racing cars entered - on the condition of having participated in the 24 Hours of Le Mans between
1923 and 1981 - are divided into six categories, each corresponding to a period. Following its
introduction and success in 2016, Group C once again welcomes these cars with modern lines that
made this the true Golden Age of Endurance as confirmed by specialists of the discipline.
Alongside the gentleman drivers who will confront the Hunaudières’ straight, Le Mans Classic is also
the rendez-vous of renowned drivers who will come to compete with them. Jenson Button, F1 World
Champion in 2009, will join Group C driving a 1988 Jaguar XJR-9 as well as other former 24 Hours
winners such as Henri Pescarolo, Jochen Mass and Stéphane Ortelli.
Richard Mille will welcome his partners Felipe Massa, former Formula 1 racing driver as well as
Sébastien Loeb the WRC champion and WRX rallycross driver over the weekend. Luxury British
sportscar and supercar creator and Richard Mille partner McLaren Automotive will also be supporting
the brand by providing their supercars; both the versatile 570S Sports Series and the highly acclaimed
720S Super Series to delight the spectators throughout the event.
As is now the tradition, Richard Mille will present their new watch dedicated to the race, the very
sporty RM 11-03 LMC, a numbered limited edition of only 150 pieces. First RM 11-03 in white ceramic,
it takes the mythical British racing green in the purest Le Mans Classic style.
On the occasion of the release of “Car Racing 1965” published in collaboration with the agency DPPI
and the Editions Cercle d’Art, Richard Mille will exhibit in the lively village of the Le Mans circuit the
most impressive photos hitherto unpublished. This exceptional testimony retraces in detail this historic
year of motor racing, enough to immerse yourself a little more in the legendary «Spirit of Le Mans».

Le Mans Classic 2018 du 6 au 8 juillet
Porsche célèbrera ses 70 ans de sportives au Mans Classic 2018
Le Mans. « Au début, je regardais autour de moi sans parvenir à trouver la voiture de mes rêves : une voiture
de sport petite, légère, utilisant efficacement son énergie. J’ai donc décidé de la construire moi-même. »
Lorsque Ferry Porsche a débuté la conception de la première voiture portant le nom de Porsche en 1947,
il avait d’ores et déjà une vision novatrice et précise de la philosophie qu’il souhaitait insuffler à la marque.
Homologuée le 8 juin 1948 à Klagenfurt en Autriche, ce véhicule reçut le nom de 356 No.1 Roadster.
Cette philosophie, chère à la marque, façonne désormais l’entreprise depuis plus de 70 ans.
Entre 1948 et 1950, Porsche a produit 44 coupés et 8 cabriolets type 356/2 à Gmünd, en Autriche. Grace
à leur carrosserie en aluminium, à leur excellente efficacité aérodynamique et à leur grande rigidité à la
torsion, les coupés en alliage léger s’avéraient parfaits pour la compétition. Les coupés 356/2 pesaient
environ 120 kg de moins que les 356 construites par Reutter’s à Stuttgart à partir d’avril 1950. Ils sont
les premières voitures de sport allemandes à afficher les initiales "SL", abréviation de "Super Light" tirée
de l'italien "Super Leggera". C’est ainsi que Porsche débute aux 24 Heures du Mans pour la première fois
en 1951. La 356 SL gagne rapidement la catégorie des 1100 cc et répète l’exploit en 1952.
Les 24 Heures du Mans écrivent l’histoire, le Mans Classic la raconte. Porsche et Le Mans, c’est une histoire
qui dure depuis près de 70 ans. C’est donc naturellement que Porsche France a choisi ce haut lieu de
compétition automobile pour ériger en 2015 son Porsche Experience Center (PEC) et Le Mans Classic
sera le point d’orgue en France de la célébration des 70 ans de sportives de la marque.

Des modèles historiques du Porsche Museum et de Porsche Classic
Les festivités commenceront dès le vendredi 6 juillet avec un accueil au Porsche Experience Center qui
proposera activités, restauration et expositions de véhicules historiques de la marque, le tout rythmé par
les essais qualificatifs de la Porsche Classic Race Le Mans qui se dérouleront en parallèle sur le mythique
Circuit des 24 Heures du Mans. Ce programme sera accessible aux visiteurs détenteurs du Pack « Le Mans
Classic », disponibles à l’achat sur www.inscription-porsche.fr.
Quel modèle mieux que la 356 No.1 Roadster, homologuée le 8 juin 1948, pour célébrer les « 70 ans de
sportives » de la marque. Les visiteurs pourront l’admirer au PEC aux côtés d’illustres modèles provenant
du Porsche Museum de Stuttgart : 356 SL coupé de 1951, 906 Carrera 6 de 1966, 908/3 de 1970, 911
Carrera 2.8 RSR de 1973, 911 2.5 S, ou encore 911 GT1 de 1998. De quoi retracer chaque décennie de
l’histoire sportive de Porsche.
Ces modèles, exposés au PEC, seront ensuite au cœur de la Parade des 70 ans de sportives prévue le
samedi 7 juillet dès 14h00. Stéphane Ortelli, invité de cette édition du Mans Classic, reprendra pour
l’occasion le volant de la 911 GT1 avec laquelle il a remporté les 24 Heures du Mans en 1998, il y a tout
juste 20 ans. Cela constituera sans aucun doute l’un des temps forts du week-end.
Pour cet anniversaire historique, deux invités de marque nous feront l’honneur de leur présence : Felix
Porsche, petit-fils de Ferry Porsche, fondateur de la marque, et Felix Lange, cousin de Felix Porsche et
petit-fils de Ferdinand Piëch. Par ailleurs, une séance de dédicaces est prévue le samedi 7 juillet à 16h30
avec des pilotes de renom qui ont fait ou font toujours vibrer les passionnés de la marque : Gérard
Larrousse, Henri Pescarolo, Romain Dumas, Derek Bell, Stéphane Ortelli ou encore Mathieu Jaminet. Une
opportunité unique d’échanger avec ceux qui ont écrit les plus belles pages de l’histoire du sport
automobile chez Porsche.

Suite à la Parade 70 ans de sportives Porsche, et en prélude à la course du Mans Classic qui débutera à
16h00, Porsche France, en collaboration avec Peter Auto, réunira un plateau exceptionnel qui verra
s’affronter 70 Porsche historiques sur le mythique circuit des 24 Heures du Mans. Cette course mettra en

telles que les 356 A et B, 911 2.5 S et 3.0 RS, 914/6 ou encore des prototypes présents sur invitation :
la liste des voitures présentes promet d’être exceptionnelle.
Le départ de la Porsche Classic Race Le Mans sera donné ‘‘lancé’’ le samedi 7 juillet vers 14h20 pour une
durée de 55 minutes. La veille, les concurrents auront l’occasion de disputer deux séances qualificatives
de 30 minutes (la première à 13h00, la seconde vers 21h00). La course donnera lieu à un classement
scratch et à un classement à l’indice de performance. Le plateau de la 2.0L Cup créé cette année par Peter
Auto sera intégré à la Porsche Classic Race Le Mans. Rappelons que cette nouvelle série est réservée aux
Porsche 911 2 litres châssis court conformes au règlement FIA pré-1966. Cette course sera par ailleurs
retransmise en direct sur la page Facebook de la Porsche Carrera Cup France (https://fr-fr.face-

Le plus grand rassemblement Porsche de l’année
Fervents passionnés de la marque, les membres des Clubs Porsche seront à l’honneur lors de cette édition
2018 du Mans Classic. Un parking de plus de 600 places entièrement réservé aux modèles Porsche Clas-

A pair of highly original Mercedes 300 SL motor
cars, owned for over fifty years by a Swedish collector, and
practically unused during that time, will star in Artcurial
Motorcars’ next sale at Le Mans Classic on 7 July.
The 1963 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Roadster (estimate 1,5 –
2M€ / 1,8 – 2,4 M$) and the 1956 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL
Gullwing (estimate 1 – 1.5M€ / 1,2 – 1,8 M$) had been in
storage for decades when Gunnar Giermark died in 2011. He
bought the Roadster new in July 1963, and drove it very little.
Remarkably, the mileage stands at just over 1,380 km today!
The cars are being sold by the Swedish Inheritance Fund, a
Government-regulated non-profit making organisation that
supports young and disabled people using unclaimed
inheritance. Both 300SLs will be offered with no reserve.
Artcurial Motorcars will present approximately 100 cars in the
2018 edition of the biennial sale held on 7 July during the
prestigious Le Mans Classic historic racing weekend.
“With just 1380 km from new,
this practically untouched 1963 300 SL Roadster,
the rarest model, must be totally unique !
To appear in the same sale with its sister car,
the Gullwing, that has the same provenance,
is an exceptional event !»
Matthieu Lamoure,
Managing Director, Artcurial Motorcars
Gunnar Giermark, was a well-respected dental surgeon from
Sweden, with a dental clinic in the most affluent part of
Stockholm. He was an avid collector of jewellery, silver,
watches and furniture, as well as cars. An eccentric and
private man who rarely invited friends into his home, his
collecting extended to less valuable objects including
newspapers and bottles. If items were available in different
versions or colours, he would buy one of each. Unwilling to
dispose of anything, he soon ran out of space in his flat and
bought a second home outside Stockholm that also quickly
filled up.
The most valuable items Giermark collected were the two
Mercedes-Benz 300SLs offered in the sale:
Estimate: 1,5 – 2M€ / 1,8 – 2,4 M$
1,380 km from new
This car was sold new in Sweden to Gunnar Giermark on 7
July 1963. He only drove the car occasionally and when he
moved it into storage at his country house, it had covered
a mere 1,380km – the mileage it has today! The car was last
taxed in 1966 and has been hidden away, untouched for
decades.
This is a highly original example of the last and most highly
sought-after version of the Roadster, with disc brakes and
aluminium engine block. Just 57 examples were built in
1963, making it particularly rare. In extraordinarily original
condition, well preserved from humidity, it comes with its
hard-top and all the original manuals and paperwork.
Estimate: 1 – 1,5M€ / 1,2 – 1,8 M$
Giermark acquired this 1956 Gullwing in March 1968,
importing it from Portugal where it had been delivered new
on 21 July 1956. The mileage today stands at 62,000km and
the car comes with all its original manuals. Research is
currently being carried out to discover details of its
Portuguese past.
When Gunar Giermark died in 2011 without heirs, security
was put in place by his friends to protect the cars. Over the
next five years several people came forward with a claim to
the cars but, in each case, the court ruled against the
claimants. In 2017 the Swedish government-regulated fund
for unclaimed inheritance took ownership of both cars, and
have appointed Artcurial Motorcars to offer them for sale in
July 2018 at Le Mans. The fascinating story of Gunnar
Giermark and his Mercedes 300SLs has been broadcast in a
Swedish TV documentary.
Also starring in the sale will be:
Estimate: 6,5M – 7,5M€ / 8M – 9,3M€)
Sold by the factory directly to Luigi Chinetti in April 1971, this
factory prototype finished 5th overall in the 1971 Le Mans 24
Hours driven by Chinetti/Grossman, and won the 1971
Energy Index. With great racing history, this powerful
Daytona Gr.IV #12467 is one of only 15 competition versions
built by the factory. Separate press release available.
A stunning private collection of nine modern supercars will
be lining up to tempt enthusiasts. The collection comprises:
2012 Aston Martin One-77 Q-Edition (est. 1.9M – 2.3M €)
2010 Lamborghini Murcielago SV (est. 280 000 - 340 000 €)
2014 Lamborghini Aventador (est. 250 000 - 300 000 €)
2012 Lamborghini Gallardo (est. 130 000 - 180 000 €)
2011 Ferrari FF (est. 140 000 - 180 000 €)

Further details and photographs will be available shortly.
With Le Mans Classic 2018 celebrating the 70th anniversary of
the first Porsche with a Porsche-only race, there will be a
selection of highly desirable Porsches on offer, including a
1973 Porsche Carrera 2,7 RS (estimate 500 000 – 700 000 €
/ 600 000 – 840 000 $), a 1993 Porsche 964 Carrera 3.8 RSR
(estimate : 800 000 – 1 M€) with just 4 000 km from new that
has never been raced and a 1965 Porsche 911 SWB
(estimate 140 000 – 200 000 € / 168 000 – 240 000 $) that is
eligible for the new Peter Auto race, the 2 Litre Cup.
A trademark feature of Artcurial Motorcars’ sales, there will
be many cars on offer that are fresh to the market. Other
notable lots amongst the wide-ranging selection to come

Lamborghini, Ferrari, Aston Martin, Rolls-Royce, Porsche…
Nine exceptional supercars from the same private collection
will complete the line-up of 112 collectors’ cars to be offered
in the sale. The supercars were acquired by one private
collector, an enthusiast for modern high-performance sports
cars, and all have covered less than 2 000 km from new.
Included in this very exclusive collection are 3 spectacular
Lamborghini and an Aston Martin One 77 Q-Edition !
« This modern collection consists of largely limited
edition cars, all presented at very attractive prices.»
Matthieu Lamoure,
Managing Director of Artcurial Motorcars
Estimate : 130 000 – 180 000€ / 155 000 – 215 000$ /
Launched at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, this Lamborghini
Aventador is the 65th of a limited edition of 100 cars
produced to mark the constructor’s 50th anniversary. With
just 1 330 km from new, this example was acquired by the
current owner as a one-owner car in 2014, and comes to the
sale in almost new condition. The first Lamborghini to have a
carbon fibre monocoque, it is capable of reaching speeds of
up to 350 km/h.
Estimate : 130 000 – 180 000€ / 155 000 – 215 000$
The first Lamborghini to be built in the Audi era, the
Gallardo marked a turning point in the history of the
constructor from Bologna in 2003. Acquired by our
collector in February 2012, this model, with its elegant
styling conjuring up speed and power, has quickly become
a classic amongst enthusiasts. Just 150 examples were built
of this version of the Super Trofeo race car, homologated
for road use, and our example has just 1 750 km on the
odometer.
Estimate : 280 000 – 340 000€ / 330 000 – 400 000$
With lightning quick acceleration that propelled the car from
0 to 100 km/h in just 3 seconds, production of the
Lamborghini Murcielago LP 670-4 SV was limited to 350
examples. The ultimate evolution of the Murcielago range, it
was 100kg lighter than the standard model, and the resulting
improvement in performance transformed it into a veritable
race car. With superb styling by Giallo Orion, the car is fitted
with a rear-view camera, Kenwood multi-media sound
system, and comes with a cover and toolkit. With a mileage
of just 2 570 km from new, this represents a real opportunity
for collectors.
Estimate : 1,9 – 2,3M€ / 2,3 – 2,8M$
The Aston Martin One-77 was launched in 2008 as a limited
edition of 77 examples, and the One-77 Q-Edition offered
here was even more exclusive, being one of just 7 built ! It
has a performance to beat most other supercars and a top
speed of no less than 354,86 km/h is thought to have been
achieved during secret testing by the marque in Southern
Europe. With a mere 360 miles on the clock, representing
little more then the delivery mileage, this is without doubt a
hypercar of the utmost rarity ! The stunning Q-Edition can be
distinguished from the ‘standard’ One-77 by its detailing,
with red calipers and red spoilers beneath the front bumpers
and rear trunk.
Estimate : 140 000 – 180 000€ / 165 000 – 215 000$
Considered by some to be the safest supercar in the world,
thanks to its four-wheel drive and integrated transmission,
this impressive Ferrari FF is capable of an exceptional
performance. Equipped with rare features including carbon-
ceramic brakes and magnetorheological shock absorbers
providing a higher level of safety and comfort, this car has
hardly been used and has just 925 km on the clock. It is
presented in the original and iconic red livery and beige
leather interior with red stitching.
Estimate : 160 000 – 220 000€ / 200 000 – 260 000$/
The fastest Ferrari in history when it left the factory in 2013,
this magnificent F12 is an iconic vehicle capable of reaching
speeds worthy of a Formula 1 car. Attracting those who
appreciate beautiful automobiles as well as lovers of speed,
this stunning two-seater rocket is ready to captivate the
hearts of all collectors. With a meaty 740 bhp V12 engine
under the bonnet of the 1 630 kg car, the F12 offers amazing
precision and is highly enjoyable to drive. The materials used
in its construction enhance the car’s exceptional character.
Estimate : 110 000 – 130 000€ / 130 000 – 155 000$
The four-wheel drive on this fabulous Porsche 911 Turbo S
Type 991 provides a reassuring level of security and
efficiency when behind the wheel of the 560 bhp machine.
Offered in practically new condition, with just 170 km from
new, the car, synonymous with performance and versatility, is
presented in metallic sapphire blue. Suitable for everyday
road use, this model has a host of equipment normally only
employed in competition cars.
Estimate : 180 000 – 220 000€ / 215 000 – 260 000$
Hand built at the Goodwood factory, this Rolls-Royce Wraith
is a worthy heir to the pre-war models of 1938-9, and is one
of the most powerful cars ever built by the marque. A perfect
symbol of the brand’s revival after it was bought by BMW,
