Unique McLaren from Brunei Sultan’s collection listed for record price, with just 13,600 miles on the odometer
Despite its age, the supercar has surprisingly low mileage.
A rare McLaren F1 is set to be auctioned in Abu Dhabi through Sotheby’s.
The car, once part of the Brunei Sultan’s garage, shows a little over 13,600 miles of driving history.
This 1994 supercar stands out for several unique reasons. It was originally built for the Sultan’s collection and later rebuilt under an extremely rare McLaren program.
At different times, the car also carried the autographs of two Formula 1 champions. This vehicle is the 14th of only 64 road-going McLaren F1s ever produced.
When first assembled in 1994, the coupe featured a bright yellow exterior paired with a black leather interior. In 2006, at the request of its then-owner, the car was sent back to McLaren for a comprehensive rebuild.
In March 1996, Michael Schumacher signed the door sill of the F1. That autograph disappeared during the rebuild, but in 2007, Lewis Hamilton added his signature to the car.
The auction estimate starts at $21 million. If it sells, this McLaren F1 would become the most expensive of its kind.
Lamborghini SUV up for auction
A year earlier, a one-of-a-kind Lamborghini LM002 appeared on an online auction platform. The SUV had been custom-built for Brunei’s Sultan, Hassanal Bolkiah.
While Lamborghini produced only about 300 LM002s in total, this particular example stood out as the only five-door wagon version.

The Sultan originally purchased his LM002 in 1986 as a standard four-door SUV. Seeking greater practicality, he commissioned a redesign. In 1989, Italian coachbuilder Carrozzeria Diomante created a new body style exclusively for him.
That wasn’t the only upgrade. The roofline was raised, additional seating was installed, and the interior was fitted with a stereo system, a television, and fresh upholstery. All these modifications added more than 1,100 pounds to the vehicle. Its exterior color was also changed from black to an exclusive Argento Metallizzato finish.
