My theory on people who buy expensive old cars, is that they buy the car that they had on a poster stuck to their bedroom wall when they were 14.
It's very noticeable that this "collectors" sale has E-types, 911s, Mercs and Maseratis from the 1960s and 1970s.
By my calculation the buyers will be coming to the end of their working life, with money and time, and looking for something to spend them on.
