First Bid Wars, red car missing

I won the first Bid War where I bought all the containers.
After the 3rd one, there was also the video where my uncle is loading the car.
After that all people were gone and my uncle and me alone on the area.

The red car was also marked with "Leave Map", so I knew - uncle takes it with him.

When I cleared out the last container, a video came in which everybody is dancing around Uncle on stage.

While leaving the map I noticed that one item is missing and I went "Back to map" to find the last item.
Thereby the screen turned black and I had to "load last save".
Then all gates were closed again, the people stood around and the car was gone.
Back in the shop I noticed that no car was for sale and by pressing the red button no car appeared, even no car counted in MIKKO-Magazin or on the left upper HUD in shop.
So I lost the car.

I also deleted MapName_0 from save location, but since the event is closed, it is no longer "open" and I can't participate again.
The Bull.Event is finished and I didn't get the first prize.

Not that I need it financially, grind a few times and the 2000 dollars are back in.
Nevertheless I am missing this in the collection now.

Hi Der_Scanner, thanks for the intel! We are working on that. I know you all have been hearing that a lot recently from us, but the matter is not that simple. Sorry for all the trouble!

I had the same exact problem... I also had one item missing, went "back to map" all the doors to the storage rooms were closed, and the car was gone. I was also unable to fine the one missing item. On return to shop, the car was not there.
Definitely a bug that needs to be fixed.

With the 2 other auctions, I can go back to search 1 not found item (it comes on every event) but can´t find it after returning, due the closed gates.

I had the same problem on my GFs acc. I go back because there is a missing Item and then there is a video of sebastian winning the wars (I won all bid wars). now I'm missing one large item for the archivement after 30h.

is there a way to reset the first bid war mission?

I just played the game from the beginning again, and the very same thing happened again...
I won all the bids at auction and won the red car... again one missing item and the red car was missing. It is now December 2021, almost a year and a half later, and this same bug is occurring. You acknowledged the issue when I reported it in August 2020... is there any way that this can have a hot fix?
Thanks !
Have a Blessed and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

had this too in my game, first bid war i won all 5 garages... but never looted anything inside as i wanted to loot them once i won them all. but after the last one one npc won the car even though they had no garages...
i guess it looks at your "looted value" and if it is 0 (or lower than npc value) it defaults to you losing the car... even if you won all garages.

It is now July 2022, and I started a new game, hoping this was fixed.... alas, it was not.
It happened again...
I won all the auctions along with the red car... and when I returned the red car was not in the garage. This is the THIRD TIME this has happened in as many play-through's.
I should also mention that I was also missing one item, and there was only one "hit" with the device saying it was "HOT" in the back of only one of the storage units... but nothing was there. I even clicked all over just in case it was invisible... but no luck.

Are the dev's still working on a fix? Would be nice to know...
This same issue has been going on for far too long and detracts from working towards any achievements.
