Rare and only copy of the McLaren F1 up for auction

 Rare and only copy of the McLaren F1 up for auction





 The McLaren F1 quickly turned into one of the most desirable cars in the world among collectors of rare cars, and the car is described as one of the best cars of its era and perhaps of all time, and it is a truly rare car as there are only 106 of them, which means that And every time one of these cars is offered for sale, it will cause an uproar in the automotive world. But what makes the topic even more important is that this car, with the number 059 on the chassis, is the most unique F1 car ever. If you do not yet know, dear reader, why this car is so special, just take one look at the front end, and you will notice the headlights of a different design, as they came shorter than the usual headlights in regular F1 cars. According to RM Sotheby's, this F1 has updated headlights made up of some parts used in the BMW Z1. This particular car was used to try out the new lights with the aim of improving a problem with the headlights in the original design. McLaren ended up using the already updated interior, but without the smaller headlights, and although some might say the lights used in the rest of the F1 cars are nicer, these different lights make this version a one-of-a-kind car in the world. . The first owner was from the UK, had driven the car more than 16,000 miles (25,750 km), and seven months after receiving the McLaren F1 he sent it back to the factory to install a downforce booster package that includes the front and rear spoiler. From the original 18-inch five-spoke wheels, it was sold in 2012 to its second and current owner in the USA, where he drove just 300 more miles (480 km). The car will be auctioned on Thursday, August 18th through RM Sotheby's auction house, and the auction will last for only one day. This car has unique headlights and a special modification package, so we expect the car to sell for more than this number.
