Mussolini's Alfa Romeo sold at auction

Italian dictator Benito Mussolini's official car, an Alfa Romeo convertible, has fetched 180,000 euros (USD 240,000) at auction in France, the auctioneer said today.
An unnamed Russian museum bought the car, which needs complete restoration, at a sale in Caen-Carpiquet in northwestern France.
Originally fitted with a silver dashboard and handles, the car was custom-built in 1937 for Italian King Victor Emmanuel III before becoming Mussolini's official car, according to expert Xavier Aiolfi.
