Behold: the 1995 McLaren F1: with its central driver position, carbon fibre monocoque chassis, naturally-aspirated 6.0L BMW V12 and downforce enhancing lines, it’s perhaps the most performance-oriented road car ever made.
Only 106 were built and this is something of a unicorn, being (a) the only one finished in (looks better than it sounds) ‘Creighton Brown’ and (b) the lowest mileage F1 ever offered at auction with a mere a mere 242 miles (390km) on the clock.
It goes under the hammer (in mint condition) this August at Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.

A legend in it’s own right, the poor thing only driven for 242 miles. Will it go for 10, 15, 20 million. Only circa £500,000 when new in the 90s.
As we used to say years ago; sure she’s not even run-in.
Gets round the lhd/rhd issue too.
That’s a lot of vroom vroom.
Got to ride in one once. As a passenger mine you. A fellah I’ve done business with from Bellevue, Washington in the US. Proper .com almost-billionaire.
Fantastically analogue by today’s standards but a gorgeous car and sweet Jesus quick.
