When you imagine a perfect car collection, what are the headliners? All the Ferrari hypercars seem like a good place to start. Throw in a few Bugattis, maybe even Jaguar’s two attempts at supercars from the ’90s to compare with your EB110s. Multiple actual Group B rally cars are a nice touch, as is a Lamborghini Miura SV to round it all out. That entire collection was at one point put together, and now, that entire collection is for sale.
The 18-car group, which RM Sotheby’s calls the Gran Turismo Collection, is all headed to the company’s London auction in November. Supercars are a major focal point of the group. The collection features all of the Ferrari 288 GTO, F40, F50, Enzo, and LaFerrari. The three Bugattis, two EB110s and a Chiron Super Sport, are supplemented by both a Jaguar XJR-15 and an XJ220 S. The collection includes just two Lamborghinis, but they happen to be a Miura SV and a Countach LP5000 S. The group even includes a few potential daily drivers: three front-engined convertible Ferrari GTs all finished in yellow.
If those don’t interest you, the collection also includes three genuine Group B racers. The Lancia 037 is an early works car, run in the model’s debut rally by Markku Alén and winning a 1983 rally at the hands of Walter Röhrl. The Lancia Delta S4 is a Rallye Monte Carlo winner, among the most celebrated examples of the company’s absurd twincharged and mid-engined hatchback. Even the Audi Quattro is in S1 E2 trim, the most extreme form the legendary Audi ever took.
The entire 18-car collection will be available at RM Sotheby’s London sale on November 5. Expect high prices for everything.
