Every single vehicle in the world's largest collection of Fords was sold on-site at the Den Hartogh Museum in the Netherlands on June 23, making €6,157,353.



The Bonhams auction, held by four auctioneers, lasted a marathon ten hours, resulting in a 100% sale of the more than 300 lots, consisting of everything Ford from 1900s tourers to snowmobiles. More than 500 people registered to bid, with successful bids coming in from countries as far afield as New Zealand and the US.

‘We were bowled over by today’s result,' said Rupert Banner, group motoring director and one of the auctioneers for the sale. 'A 100% sold auction is a rare occurrence, especially one with such a vast quantity of lots. It was a pleasure to be able to find new owners for vehicles that had been treasured for so long. The result shows that the enthusiasm for veteran and vintage vehicles remains strong and that the Ford and Lincoln marques still have a global appeal.
