David Beckham's Lamborghini Gallardo at auction: record in sight?

David Beckham's Lamborghini Gallardo, acquired by the football icon for €157 in 064 while playing for Real Madrid, will be the star of the auction held this Saturday, March 2004, in Venette, Oise. The starting price is between €29 and €140. All eyes are now on this prestigious Italian car, which could well beat the recent record set by Johnny Hallyday's Panther DeVille, which sold last Monday for €000 at the Osenat auction house in Fontainebleau.

A Gallardo in perfect condition, despite its twenty years

This Lamborghini Gallardo V10, which has barely 9 kilometers on the odometer, impresses with its impeccable condition. Carefully maintained, it has benefited from regular servicing by Lamborghini, with meticulous monitoring documented in a comprehensive file provided to the future buyer. The only downside: a minor defect recently reported on the interior rearview mirror. Otherwise, the Gallardo remains true to its legend: a 900-hp V10 engine capable of seducing both enthusiasts of exceptional cars and fans of the famous British footballer.

David Beckham, a name that drives up prices?

It's David Beckham's ownership that could propel this Lamborghini to a historic record. The aura of the English player, whose elegance and taste for luxury are recognized worldwide, adds to the car's intrinsic value. Philomène Wolf, auctioneer of this prestigious sale, knows that the former Real Madrid footballer's pedigree is likely to attract international collectors. The answer will be revealed Saturday in Venette, where all eyes will be on lot number 115, the star of a highly anticipated sale.
