Another auction, another bloody Ferrari. Last weekend in Arizona, two auction houses sold lots of old cars. Actually, a shedload of old cars, with both RM Auctions and Gooding & Company racking up a whopping $115m - or £76 million in real money - over the course of two days.
So what do you get when you spend the equivalent of Top Gear's cheese budget on classic metal? A really lovely Ferrari, that's what. Top sale from the weekend was a 1964 Ferrari 250 LM, which sold for $9.6m (£6.3m) to make it the most valuable car ever sold in Arizona's auction history.
Over at RM, most of the top ten sales were Ferraris - stuff that ranged from the 250 LM through 288 GTO to 275 GTB/4 via FXX (above) - but lower down the pecking order there were things like a 1984 Audi Sport Quattro, a 1930 Rolls-Royce Phantom II Shooting Brake and a 1971 Merc 280 SE Cabriolet.
Gooding's top ten on the other hand, had a bit more variety on offer, taking in such cars as a Porsche 906 Carrera 6, that lovely BMW 507 we showed you last week, and a Mercedes 300 SL Roadster. Oh, and a Miura.
So, what we've cunningly done is to make a sort of Super Top Twenty, representing the most expensive cars sold over the weekend. Have a click through, and then pity all of your life choices that meant you couldn't afford any of these. We have.
