Bonhams has revealed its initial consignments for the Zoute Sale, scheduled for 11 October 2026 during the Zoute Grand Prix in Knokke Heist, Belgium. Leading the auction is the Keller Collection, featuring a selection of classic and sports cars from the 1960s to the 2000s, mainly Italian, provided by a private collector from Switzerland without reserve. The star of the auction is a 1970 Lamborghini Miura P400S (chassis no. 4578), with an estimated value of €1,600,000 - €2,000,000, also offered with no reserve. This Miura, one of 114 late-specification ventilated-disc models, is painted in Giallo Fly with a Nero leather interior and was originally delivered to Switzerland in 1970. It is thought to have been bought new by Swiss racing driver Emmanuel "Toulo" de Graffenried. Additional offerings will include a Lamborghini Countach 25th Anniversary and an original AC Cobra 289.
