I just got notified the sale didn't went ahead. So new rounds, new chances at the Paris Motor Show on 8th October 2016.
Update 13-10-2016: Coys state it was sold for €75,800 to a collector in New Zealand
The following got posted on FChat and was provided by Marcel Massini:
The correct Italian license plate number on chassis #17261 is Modena "MO 393333" (NOT "MO 39333"). It is six digits, not five. A possible five digit plate "MO 39333" would have been issued in May 1956 already. The car (17261) was registered on plates "MO 393333" on 10 March 1977. This is NOT the first registration of 17261. It is the second. The first one was 6 September 1973 on plates "MO 306084". The first and original owner of 17261 was Enzo Varianini, born on the 3rd August 1933 in Mirandola, resident at Via Fulvia 21 in Mirandola (Province of Modena), Italy, declared purchase price was Italian Lire 13’000’000. The car was sold to him thru dealer Motor S.a.s. in Bologna, Italy.
Original exterior color: Azzurro Hyperion 2.443.648.
Original interior color: Nero Cogolo.
Having met Enzo Varianini in his lifetime and mine I would expect this vehicle to be collectible, and of high value.
