The super-rich spend vast sums of money to own the world’s most desirable cars, but which are the most expensive ever sold at auction?
250 GTO on this list, the Uhlenhaut Coupe was bought by a private seller at the Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart, Germany.
Considered to be ‘the world’s most important, desirable, and legendary motor car’, this example was one of just 36 GTOs built. It is said to be the most authentic and original of all 36, and to top it off, is one of only four upgraded by Scaglietti with its most aggressive and successful additions. Aside from this, it has a rather colourful racing history, too, holding over 15 class and overall wins to its name during the 1962-1965 seasons.
Despite being half a century old, the Stuttgart-born racer incorporated very cutting-edge technology for the period. Integrated within the rigid space-frame chassis was a fuel injected 2.5-litre engine which propelled the no. 12 car to championship victory in 1954.Rewind two generations from the Ferrari 335 S and you’ll find the 290 MM. Another Scuderia brainchild, this example was one of the quartet that rolled off the production line.
