Auto Salon Singen and Ferrari Gohm

nice to see all these cars, thanks

 

Nice pics!!

 

then they have put them somewhere you can't see them did you ask for them or not?

 

wow that was nice of you Martin And you have a good memory!
It IS my dream Ferrari.... eeh in a distant future
Thanks for the extra pics. I especially love the last one

 

They still have I read somewhere that they should have a Bugatti Veyron for sale.... but I don't see it on any of the pics

 

Fabulous pictures. Thanks for sharing.

 

Martin those are wonderful pictures. Can you please explain The Auto Salon? For years they have had the most extensive collection I have seen ever seen! I even have their brochures and it is unbelievable. I understand most are consignment cars. But it is still very impressive to be able to display such inventory.

Thanks for sharing. The Gohm dealership is also stunning!

@Martin,

thanks a lot for this wonderful thread and all the fantastic pics.
About the cars fom the Auto-Salon-Singen:
Reading their advertises in all the big car magazines it looks like they do have the biggest car collection on earth!?
But.....:
- Most of the cars (i.e. expensive Super Sports Cars, Vintage Racers) are on CONSIGMENT
- Most of the cars are still at heir owners and in their garages
- You have to make appointment, show highly interest and they will arrange a meeting with THE car (they call the owner, pick up the car with a flatbed, bring it o he AS.....a.s.o.)

Anyway, its always a great spot to see o many Ferraris at 1 place!!!

Best
Wolfgang

 

I have heard some very bad stories about Auto Salon Singen from 3 different people.

The last story I heard was 2 weeks ago from a respected Ferrari garage in NL (Forza).
He has been there 3 times (any clue about the distance from the center of NL??) and 3 times the car was not there.
"Just sold" "Paid cash and took the car yesterday night etc".

The last time he asked 3 times if the blue 456GT was really there as he had to come with his truck to collect it the next morning. He was ensured that it was 100% there and it looked exactly as discribed etc. Numbers and confirmation by fax etc. So he went there (700 km?) with his truck 90 kmh and drove the whole night. He had the cash with him if the car was ok.

Next morning on arrivel, the car was just sold and away...
This time he had to be removed by the police. It was the 3rd time.

Martin, nothing beats your lovely pics and the huge collection you spotted there though !

 

Have to visit that place ones.
Looks great.
Will be in the neighberhood next month.

 

Great pictures! Thanks!

Looking at your pics, the 456 GT suddenly strikes me as dated. I always thought the 456 would stand the passing of time quite well, but it looks like it didn't. From a side view the backend looks really heavy moreso in relation to the rather 'flat' front. Still a beautiful car of course!

 

Its a great garage to visit, but if your travelling from long distance its always best to check what they actually have in stock. I made that mistake back in July 05 when i visited especially from England. I thought they had in the place what they have on their web site, but they hardly ever do! So always check first.

They keep this practice it as a secret on their website.
A complete contrary impression is created with all the pics on their website showing cars on the AS white floor - in reality absent cars they don't own!!!
Most stock offers listed in the www are missing when you visit the AS- showroom.
That's really disappointing.

Hate to say: close to cheat
