THE RISE OF AUTOMOBILIA
Alongside values for classic cars, the motoring memorabilia market has also had increasing interest in recent years, with motorsport trinkets and decorative antiques achieving record sales. Gooding Christie's had its highest-ever automobilia sale result in April, at $1,485,469 from more than 500 lots. RM Sotheby's set the world record for a Formula One driver's helmet that same month, at £720k for Ayrton Senna's 1992 lid. In March, Burns & Co of Australia found an astonishing AUS$133,975 (£65,000) for a 100-year-old Shell enamel sign (below right), and in May, Cheffins set a record with a £9000 Benzole light-box.

IF I'D SAID 'frunk' to you a few years ago, you'd have probably been baffled - or deeply offended. Now, though, the word has made it into dictionaries as a description for the little bit of boot space you get under the bonnet of some electric cars. But not my Peugeot e-208.
