Overview
- Tom Hartley Jnr was appointed by the family to oversee the formal listing of the 20-car collection, which is estimated to fetch over $70 million.
- The assemblage features final-chassis numbers of models including the F1, Speedtail, P1 and Senna, all largely unused and maintained by McLaren, with the F1 and P1 GTR tallying minimal track miles.
- Created by the late Mansour Ojjeh, whose backing secured McLaren’s seven constructors’ and ten drivers’ championships, the set reflects his foundational role in the brand’s racing and road-car ventures.
- Hartley’s earlier high-profile auction of Bernie Ecclestone’s 69-car Grand Prix collection this year underscores growing demand and record-breaking values for historic motorsport assets.
- The Ojjeh family is seeking a single custodian to acquire the collection intact to preserve its provenance and legacy.
