Some of the world’s rarest supercars were featured in March including pre-World War II 1935 Bugatti, 2023 Aston Martin Valkyrie and many others.
Many unique car models are currently listed on RM Sotheby’s website including the 2000 BMW Z8, the 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S, the 2016 McLaren 675 LT Spider and the 2009 Lamborghini Murciélago LP640-4 Roadster. However, the auctioning firm will announce a selection of early consignments in the coming weeks for the December auction.
With over 40 years of track record in the collector car industry, RM Sotheby’s is the world's largest collector car auction house by total sales. It is currently responsible for six of the top ten most valuable motor cars ever sold at auction.
“In what is an increasingly important market for RM Sotheby’s, we return to Dubai for our second auction in the UAE, during an exciting season for car lovers in the region. We are at a new venue as part of a partnership with the 1000 Miglia Experience UAE,” said Peter Wallman, chairman, for UK and EMEA at RM Sotheby’s.
“We continue to grow our presence in the region and build on the success of our inaugural auction in March, and are looking forward to another great sale in this important market,” said Wallman.
“The upcoming sale will undoubtedly add an exciting new dimension to the opening day of our 1000 Miglia Experience UAE. This partnership marks another significant milestone in our mission to develop and support the automotive enthusiasts’ scene in the Middle East—a region known for its remarkable growth and passion for exquisite driving experiences,” said Martin Halder, founder of Octanium Group, organiser of 1000 Miglia Experience UAE.
December is fast becoming the region’s ‘automotive season’ with events such as the 1000 Miglia Experience, RM Sotheby’s new sale, Cavallino Middle East, and the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
