Bonhams|Cars is pleased to announce its annual Swiss auction, on Sunday 29 June 2025, at the prestigious Bonmont Golf & Country Club, located in Chéserex, 30 minutes from Geneva, Switzerland. This not-to-be-missed event devoted to classic cars promises to dazzle enthusiasts and collectors from the four corners of the globe, with models carefully selected for their remarkable original condition or impeccable restoration. One of the highlights of the sale is a rare amaranth-coloured Ferrari 275 GTB/4 dating from 1967 (estimate upon request).
This sale will offer an exceptional selection of approximately forty classic automobiles, ranging from sports 1930s cars of the 1930s to 21st century hypercars, produced by legendary brands such as Aston Martin, Bugatti, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Mercedes-Benz and Porsche. Importantly, a substantial number of lots will be offered without reserve.
Maximilien Gagnebin, Head of Sale for Cars auctions at Bonhams in Switzerland, said: “We are delighted to return to the heights of Chéserex on 29 June, where we will offer around forty models from the 1930s to 2021. The star lot of the sale is a 1967 Ferrari 275GTB/4 in an emblematic amaranth colour (estimate upon request). This is one of the finest road-going Ferraris ever produced, and is reminiscent of a similar legendary model once owned by Steve McQueen.”
Another highlight lot of this sale is a 2022 Aston Martin Valkyrie, estimated at CHF 2,600,000 – 2,900,000. This exceptional hypercar, co-designed by Adrian Newey, was built to German specification and delivered new in Monaco to former Formula 1 World Champion Nico Rosberg on 30 June 2022. The car is finished in ‘Magnetic Silver’ and proudly bears the number ‘6’ – a tribute to the number Rosberg raced under during his victorious 2016 Formula 1 Championship season. Virtually new, this Aston Martin has covered only 85 kilometres since leaving the factory and is one of just 150 produced.
With its sleek black elytra doors and just 200 kilometres since it left the factory, this sophisticated and highly exclusive Ford GT Carbon Series Coupé takes its design cues from the mythical Ford GT 40 that dominated Le Mans in the late 1960s. The car was delivered new in Switzerland where it is currently resident and has scarcely been driven, covering only the minimal distance required to keep it in running order. Offered with all books, tools and accessories, and presented in stunning, ‘as new’ condition, this pristine Carbon Series example represents a not-to-be-missed opportunity to join the select band of Ford GT owners (estimate: CHF 700,000 – 750,000).
This beautifully preserved 2001 BMW Z8 was purchased new by its current owner, who has only driven it 22,000 kilometres to date. Offered with its hard top, tool kit as well as use and maintenance manuals, it benefits from an up-to-date technical inspection (estimate: CHF 175,000 – 195,000).
This desirable left-hand-drive GTS was delivered new in the USA and finished in lovely “Celeste Metallizzato” blue – one of a reported 29 delivered in this colour – paired with a matching blue leather interior. This example is “matching numbers” and includes Ferrari build records, a report by Mattias Bartz and its original period operating instructions. The current owner acquired it more than twenty years ago, importing it from Sweden to Switzerland. With its restoration and service work completed and the car returned to its original splendor, the owner repatriated it to Switzerland and obtained veteran registration in 2023. Presented in rare and superb colours, this car is estimated at CHF 450,000 – 500,000 and is now ready for its next chapter of cherished ownership.
This sublime Bentley S1 Continental, coachwork by H.J Mulliner, is one of the rare left-hand drive examples and exudes unsurpassed style and luxury. One of 431 S1 Continentals, it was delivered new to a Mr. Dubois, living in the Geneva countryside. The car has remained in Switzerland ever since, with only two subsequent owners. It has been partially restored in 2023 and 2024, to remain in exceptional condition.
In 1964 a silver Aston Martin DB5 featured in the film Goldfinger, starring Sean Connery as secret agent James Bond, otherwise known as ‘007’. Since then the DB5 has became synonymous with the James Bond franchise, appearing in movies. Finished in ‘Silver Birch’ – the iconic colour made famous by secret agent 007’s car in Goldfinger – this beautiful Aston Martin DB5 was delivered new in England. Partially restored in 2013, the Aston comes with a comprehensive history file containing extensive invoices, technical inspections, technical expertise reports, photographs of previous owners, and a BMIHT Certificate. (estimate: CHF 650,000 – 700,000).
First presented to the motoring press in May 1994, the Ferrari F355 carried forward the spirit of the Dino 246 GT as a grand tourer. This example was delivered new in Switzerland and is sold with its up-to-date service book. It is finished in the rare “Nero Carbonio Metallizzato”, paired with a beautiful and rich tobacco interior – a particularly beautiful combination. (estimate: CHF 85,000 – 115,000).
This beautiful Mercedes-Benz 220 SE Coupé is presented in its original colour combination of ‘Graphitgrau’ with a red leather interior and retains its original engine. Estimated at CHF 60,000 – 80,000, this 220 SE is offered without reserve.
