The excesses of the very rich still boggle my mind. Look at this collection of fantastic cars, left to rot for decades behind a French Castle the heirs to which have only just recently looked into what is there.

What a shame! At least some were stored correctly.

Great collection and actually a little old news. Recently, a similar Ferrari 250 GT Spyder California SWB sold at auction for $15.1 million. I believe it is a different car, but that one alone in the auction is worth more than the lot.

I thought it was curious that the article was dated Dec 5th, and has appeared twice before today.

The Daily Mail isn't one of our sharpest newspapers.
It's popular with those of a pretty far-right turn of mind - who can't think what those spectacles are doing in the microwave.
So they wouldn't notice if it was the same article every day!

These cars were scheduled to be auctioned Feb. 6. I have tried to find the sales results, but
so far no luck.
