I received an email from Sotheby's about a collection in Portugal. One of the cars was a 600 with glass roof and custom interior. The speedo and Halda Speed pilot in the divider were a nice touch. Here is what Sotheby's had to say:
The RM Sotheby’s Sáragga Collection auction was held 21 September in Portugal on a location on the owner’s estate, and hundreds of buyers filled the room to secure cars from this sale near the beach resort region of Comporta. The room was reportedly highly animated throughout the sale, with many results commanding applause and standing ovations from the audience.
The star of the RM Sotheby’s Sáragga Collection auction was the 1931 Bentley 8-Litre Tourer but another notable car was the one-of-a-kind 1966 Mercedes-Benz 600 Sedan, featuring a unique custom-made glass roof and coachbuilt by Henri Chapron of Paris. Having resided in Portugal since 1972 and in single ownership for 30 years, the car found a new home for €342,500
