The final gavel has fallen in Zürich, closing an extremely successful 2026 live auction calendar for Broad Arrow.
Held in partnership with Auto Zürich, the second annual sale returned to the historic Dolder Grand Hotel overlooking Lake Zürich. Collectors from across Switzerland and around the world gathered in the ballroom as some of the greatest vintage, classic, and modern cars cross the block, while thousands more watched online.
When the afternoon was complete, 80 percent of all lots had sold for a total of CHF 24'723'338, making the 2026 Zürich Auction the most successful collector car auction in Switzerland this year.
Modern hypercars led the results, topped by the 2015 Ferrari LaFerrari in rare Bianco Fuji, which sold for CHF 5'856'250. Equally exciting was the 2012 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse, the car that marked the model’s debut on Bugatti’s stand at the Geneva Motor Show, achieving CHF 2'368'750.
German marques also had a strong day across eras. A 2023 BMW 3.0 CSL, one of only 50 built in homage to the 1970s original, drew the biggest excitement among the Bavarian entries. The seller, former BMW Sauber F1 driver Nick Heidfeld, even drove it to the auction and was in the room when it sold for CHF 906'250. Ingolstadt was not to be outdone, as a rare short-wheelbase 1985 Audi Sport quattro reached CHF 703'750. Stuttgart made moves as well, with a 2009 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Stirling Moss and a 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing Coupé both finding new ownership following the sale.
