@RocZX The Z1 is neat. I saw one in a BMW collection before, and got to play with the doors; super weird. Thanks for posting the pictures and link though, didn't know that they had the M20 engine (same as in the E30), and apparently shared a bunch of components with the E30.

Thought all of his collection was going up for sale.

That car was sold by Paul Walker to someone else back in 2011; the car is now in someone else's ownership, thus not part of the collection. The current owner is relying on the rarity of the car and Paul Walker's name as a former owner to drive up the price.
 


I found this absolutely gorgeous Evo VIII for sale while looking for cars for my dad, it's got 25,000 miles on it and is literally perfect. (the photo is a link) Maybe a bit ordinary for this thread, but it's such a nice example of a very nice car.

A Renault used in Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade is coming up for sale!

If you grew up in the 1980s, then we have a slice of reasonably-priced excellence you will not want to miss. A 1928 Renault Type NN Tourer used in the third Indiana Jones movie - starring Harrison Ford and Sean Connery - is coming up for auction.

The yellow Renault was resprayed black for its role in the film in 1988 - in the famous scene with a replica of a 1917 army tank - and was returned to the UK once filming had been completed for a ‘sympathetic' renovation.

We're told the car comes with a four-cylinder engine that returns a claimed 40mpg and can hit 50mph, an experience we'd imagine is a trifle clenching.

It's estimated to sell at the Brooklands Museum in the Historics auction for between £9,000 and £14,000 next month. If it doesn't hit five figures at least, we'll eat our sun-bleached fedoras.
