The Zoute Concours classic car showcase is set to dazzle collectors and enthusiasts alike this October, as Broad Arrow Auctions unveils a thrilling selection of European legends. Held in collaboration with Zoute Grand Prix Car Week, this showcase brings together rarity, craftsmanship, and pure automotive passion.
Broad Arrow Elevates the Zoute Experience
Known for curating some of the world’s most desirable vehicles, Broad Arrow Auctions takes center stage at Knokke-Heist’s scenic Approach Golf. With a catalogue spanning iconic eras and marques, the Zoute Concours promises an unforgettable collector car experience.
Five Collector Icons, One Unmissable Event
Each car featured represents a pinnacle of design and performance. From BMW’s turbocharged innovation to Ferrari’s F1-inspired craftsmanship, these five classics offer unmatched pedigree.
BMW 2002 Turbo: A Boosted German Masterpiece
Introduced in 1973, the BMW 2002 Turbo changed the performance landscape forever. This concours-level 1974 example has matching numbers, only two owners, and retains its original registration. A true Belgian gem.
Engine Specs That Still Impress
At its core: a KKK turbocharged engine with 170hp. Compact, quick, and raw, it delivers that visceral surge BMW fans crave, turbo power wrapped in classic lines.
Abarth Boano 207/A Spyder: Carlo Abarth’s U.S. Vision
The 207/A was Carlo Abarth’s first sports racer, destined for U.S. competition. Designed by Giovanni Michelotti and built by Mario Felice Boano, it features a Fiat-sourced inline-four and striking handcrafted bodywork.
Historic Significance Meets Restoration
Only ten were made. This restored French-collection example still shows interior charm while standing concours-ready. It’s a true ticket to vintage motorsport history.
O.S.C.A. 1600 GT2 Cabriolet: Zagato Roots, Maserati Spirit
Created by the Maserati brothers after founding O.S.C.A., this 1963 Cabriolet is one of just three made. With Carrozzeria Fissore bodywork and a tubular chassis, it’s engineering elegance at its finest.
A Turin Star with Global Provenance
Originally a Turin Motor Show display, it was recommissioned in 2012 and then preserved across private collections in the U.S. and Europe. Its rarity is matched only by its presentation.
Maserati Ghibli SS Coupé: GT Style, V8 Strength
The 4.9 SS variant of the Ghibli pairs Giorgetto Giugiaro’s design with bold GT proportions. This 1972 Blu Sera example reaches 174mph thanks to its 330hp 4.9-litre V8.
Originality with Documentation
Preservation approved by Maserati expert Adolfo Orsi. It includes full original records and factory documentation, a testament to its unmatched authenticity.
Ferrari 365 GT4 BB: Mid-Engine Formula 1 DNA
Ferrari’s shift to mid-engine glory began here. The 365 GT4 BB features a sonorous 12-cylinder boxer engine derived from the marque’s Formula 1 heritage.
Restored in Maranello, Certified by Ferrari
Just 387 units built. This example’s full restoration was handled by Carrozzeria Zanasi and it carries Ferrari Classiche certification. It stands as one of the finest Berlinetta Boxers on the market.
