For decades, collectors from all over the world have been plagued by various artifacts from the Second World War. Many of them create a whole state, but this does not make sense of the fact that it is the same, so is the proposal. What’s more – how much more money is given by the war, what is more and more important. This often leads to price increases, which is actually normal. And for the war. Everything is interesting for collectors.
Who, however, is the most expensive appetite from the greatest war to the moment?
“The Mercedes of the furer”, as it is known, is the most beautiful artifact from Second World War. The armored dark Mercedes Benz 770k with an open glove, which belonged to the Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler, today is estimated at 10 million.
The German car was described by the Worldwide Austria as “the most significant car in the history of the car, proposed for the car.”
The car was used by Hitler during all sorts of important events. As after the victory over France in 1940. Or at the time of the visit of the Italian dictator Benito Mussolini in Germany, when the two were paradeing on the streets of Munich.
The production model of Mercedes – 770K, in fact, served only as a basis for the special limousine of Hitler. It is a convertible and had 40-millimeter branded glass and an 18-millimeter hardened steel cap. The car weighs almost 5 tons, has a capacity of 230 horsepower, and the fuel consumption reaches the incredible for the day 38 liters per 100 kilometers. The tank consumes as much as 300 liters of gasoline.
In the Second World War, the Americans confiscated Hitler’s car in France, but in the beginning they had no idea that it was.
After the war, the car became the property of a man from Belgium, after which it was sold to the United States. Since then, the price of the limousine does not allow it to fall, as over the years it has become the property of various private collectors and auction houses.
For the last time the car was offered for sale in 2018 at an official auction in Arizona, organized by Worldwide Auctioneer. Then anonymous collector offered $ 7 million for the car, but the auction did not agree with this offer for the car.
