Market commentary
A charming little car with potentially surprising performance and definitely appealing design, it's enough to give a competitive driver a strong incentive to go on a weight loss campaign. It was offered by RM at Monaco in 2018 where it brought a reported high bid of $173,290 (Euros 145,000 hammer at the time; this result is Euros 140,000 hammer.) Both the seller and the buyer should be satisfied with this realistic result.
