    the owner is 87
    If it does not sell, the car will go to his children
    they will sell it for less, as they want the money
    so why should he keep the car?

    Selling a high profile car at auction may impact the market (if the price is lower than expected), which is not in the best interest of the auction house.
    So they could set a reserve too high, the car is RNM, but nothing prevents a sale behind closed doors at an undisclosed price - which has no impact on the market.
    And in the end everybody is happy...

    There was some gossip that the RNM no sale of the ex McQueen Porsche 917 this year was just Jerry Seinfeld’s way of making a point to the insurance company regarding the car’s true worth. No idea if true, of course, but if so one can see how a no sale can bring certain advantages…

    This lower picture is certainly in France, since there are lots of French cars and trucks (from a time when most cars were not imported).
    Even the (Piaggio) Vespa 400 was actually manufactured in France, my grandmother had one for a time...
