Oldest Auto in the World

This is the oldest auto in the world that was sold at auction on the 7th of october 2011. It is a De Dion Bouton et Trépardoux quadricycle built in 1884 and which was sold for $4.6 million dollars at auction in Hershey Pa on the 7th of october 2011 and which established a record.. I have added this photo to my album no. 33. I am limiting myself to exceptional and oldest autos as the subject is limitless.

This is quite interesting. It always amazes me how much some people are prepared to spend for old cars.
