If you're looking for your next luxury vehicle, this blog may inspire you. Below we explore 5 of the most expensive cars in the world and who owns them.
1. Bugatti La Voiture Noire
The Bugatti La Voiture Noire is the most expensive car in the world and is worth a cool £14.4 million. The car, which translates as The Black Car, was revealed in 2019 at the Geneva Motor Show. The car is owned by Ferdinand Piech, the former chairman of the Volkswagen Group who own Bugatti.
2. Rolls-Royce Sweptail
The Royce Sweptail is one of the most expensive and alluring cars in the world, as it was commissioned by an anonymous buyer in 2013. Although the buyer did not wish to share their identity, they parted with an impressive £9.9 million to commission the vehicle. The car is inspired by vintage Rolls-Royce models and features a bottle of champagne in the vehicle's central console.
3. Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita
The Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita is not only an iconic vehicle because it is the third most expensive car in the world, but it is also iconic because it is made from a diamond-coated carbon fibre finish, making it the world's first car to be made from such material. The diamond finish gives it a sparkling, silver appearance and a price tag of £3.7 million. Only two of these vehicles exist in the world, due to the time and expertise needed to manufacture the carbon fibres.
4. Lamborghini Veneno Roadster
‘Veneno’ translates as 'poison' in Spanish, and was created by Lamborghini to celebrate its 50th birthday. Despite having an original retail value of £3.4 million, as only nine of these vehicles have ever been made, the resale value is now roughly £8 million, an almost 200% increase. The engine is one of the most attractive features of this vehicle, as it is able to reach 60mph in under 3 seconds.
5. McLaren P1 LM
Made by British company Lanzanta, the McLaren P1 LM is worth £2.7 million and is a road-legal version of the McLaren P1 GTR. This car gathered a lot of media attention in 2017 after it broke the Nurburgring lap record for a streetcar.
