The ultimate Gran Turismo car collection goes up for auction
A unique collection of some of the greatest GT cars in history is set to go under the hammer at RM Sotheby’s forthcoming London sale (November 5), with the assets set to achieve more than £40m. The collection of 18 vehicles includes pristine examples of some of the finest supercars of the last 30 years, and has been labelled ‘the Gran Turismo Collection’.
Eight Ferraris, three Bugattis, two Lamborghinis and even three Group B rally cars are among the automotive exotica, which has been collated by a single European owner.
The cars are to be auctioned individually, but together are expected to fetch around £40.4m, with the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport estimated to be worth £4.5m as the pick of the bunch. For fans of classics, there’s also a 1971 Lamborghini Miura (£1.9m-£2.2m), a distinctive 1984 Countach in ‘bianco over bianco’ spec (white with white interior) – the same spec as the one used in Hollywood’s banking satire The Wolf of Wall Street.
