Is there a more famous celebrity-owned supercar than the McLaren F1 once owned by Rowan Atkinson? Yes, there was Jeremy Clarkson’s very public love and hate relationship with his Ford GT, the 250 GTO that Nick Mason picked up for less than £40,000 in the late '70s and Jay Kay with pretty much every car under the sun. But no one’s really managed to leave their mark on the legacy of a car quite like Atkinson did with the F1.
Atkinson’s F1 went up for sale in 2013 for £8,000,000, a tasty profit for a car that had covered 41,000 miles and taken a fair beating in the process. Then, nine years later - according to our vendor - he’d go on to import. Both were engineered to the nth degree: Toyota subjected its supercar to the same stress and refinement tests it would with its regular Lexus passenger cars, which is in a similar vein to Gordon Murray’s obsession with weight saving.
