Bonhams|Cars will offer a 1960 Ferrari 250 GT Coupé with bespoke Drogo coachwork at The Monaco Sale 'Les Grandes Marques à Monaco'. The car, chassis '1717 GT', carries an estimate of €2,500,000 – 3,000,000 and will headline the auction at Villa La Vigie in Monte Carlo. It has a documented competition and concours record that includes the Geneva Motor Show, Goodwood Revival and multiple European historic races. Additional lots include a 1950 Delahaye 175 S estimated at €450,000 – 650,000, a 1955 Facel Vega FV at €200,000 – 250,000 and a 2015 Touring Superleggera AERO3 at €600,000 – 900,000.
The Signal
The return of the sale to Villa La Vigie reinforces Bonhams|Cars' positioning within the classic-car market timed to the Historic Monaco Grand Prix. Collectors gain access to a one-off 1960s coachbuilt Ferrari whose documented ownership chain and recent mechanical preparation indicate both investment resilience and usability at major events. The presence of multiple high-profile European and American racing drivers in its history further elevates its standing among period-specific Ferraris.
