Market commentary

Bought at the Brooks Quail Lodge auction in 1999 for $57,500 (UKPound 38,500) with a fresh but superficial cosmetic redo by Hill & Vaughn. Since then it has been thoroughly redone at no doubt great cost. It is, however, nothing especially unusual in specifications or coachwork and could have been sold with only limited regret at the reported high bid. It is very hard to characterize a Delahaye 235MS as boring, but this car could be a reason to change your mind.
