Got a mail from Michéle Bergeron that it was aperitif time. I should say that they took very good care of me. Even though everybody else spoke French and I didn’t. Some spoke English, and they were very nice to both keep me informed, and also just shoot the breeze. Some of the French people were no better at English that I was at French, so our” conversations” were probably quite fun to overhear. More champagne.

It was time for the Bonhams auction. Around 50 classic cars, all levels. I went there just to experience it. And made sure not to wave my arms… One Pantera for sale, an often raced factory Group 3. Sold for €80k. A Miura factory rebuilt and “endorsed” by Balboni went for €500k. And a Ferrari for €730k. This must be the closest I’ve been to rich people…
