A 1980 Porsche 911 SC from the Dutch Rijkspolitie is being offered on Collecting Cars, with 150,097 km, its roof light bar and two period uniforms. It follows a 1989 911 Carrera Targa police car that sold for $252,000 at Broad Arrow's Quail Auction in August, a record for a G-body police 911.

Austrian collector Hannes Daxecker's Mercedes S-Class collection of 83 cars and 50 motorcycles sells without reserve on 7 November in Feldkirchen an der Donau. Dutch museum Metropole bought it this year. 46 cars start at €4,000 or less, while a 1959 300 SL Roadster opens at €300,000 and a one-off 300 SE 6.3 at €20,000.

Citroën reveals the electric 2CV concept in Paris on 11 October, and the first teasers show a faithful reading of the 1948 original. The production car is built in Italy from 2028 and priced under €15,000 before subsidies, around €5,000 below the cheapest Renault Twingo.

Mercedes-Benz drops the EQE sedan, the AMG S 63 E Performance and the Maybach EQS 680 SUV from its 2027 US line-up, and names the electric C-Class as the EQE's indirect successor. German registration data explain the move: the EQE family halved this year while the electric CLA sold eight times as many.

Geely shows the Monjaro EM-i in Paris on 12 October, a 340 hp plug-in hybrid SUV with electric all-wheel drive and a claimed 130 km NEDC range. The same body is already sold as the Renault Grand Koleos in Korea and the Volga K50 in Russia, but Europe's version uses a newer platform.

Škoda gives the Octavia a full-hybrid powertrain with 136 or 170 hp, two electric motors and a 1.6 kWh battery. It runs on electricity up to about 60 km/h without a charging cable and is rated at 4.3 l/100 km. The battery shrinks the estate's boot to 485 litres.
