McLaren F1 breaks record at the Automobiles of London auction

Posted on Oct 30 - Filed Under Cars 

A month ago, we wrote about the upcoming McLaren F1 auction to be held on Oct 29 by RM Auctions in association with Sotheby’s. Partial, unconfirmed results are in through Ultimatecarpage.com

The McLaren F1 auction sets record with the £2,530,000 (~$4,194,234) hammer price

Other high value sales at the same event include:

1965 Ferrari 250 LM Berlinetta – £2,255,000 (~$3,738,339)

1959 Ferrari 250 GT Tour de France – £2,255,000 (~$3,738,339)

1938 Bugatti Type 57C Atalante – £660,000 (~$1,094,148)

Both Sotheby’s and RM Auctions removed the auction details from their websites. I assume only for the time being until they record the results. Once we have confirmed information from either of them, we’ll update this post.
