A Transformative Journey for the Museum
The museum’s founder, Franck Galiègue, has decided to auction these vehicles after two years of presenting them to the public. Initially starting with a DeLorean DMC-12, Galiègue’s personal collection expanded significantly, leading to the creation of this unique museum experience.
Galiègue expressed his mixed feelings about parting with the vehicles, stating, “I have spent many years collecting these cars… it is time to pass them on to film lovers who will keep them alive.” The auction reflects a transition for Galiègue as he embarks on new automotive projects.

The Movie Cars Collection auction will take place online from November 21 to November 28. This format allows collectors and fans worldwide to participate without needing to travel to France.
