"The collection of 20 McLarens, curated by the late Mansour Ojjeh - the influential shareholder and driving force behind McLaren's success on and off the track - is considered unrepeatable. Each car represents the final chassis of its respective model, with almost all in unused, factory-fresh condition. At its heart lies the last McLaren F1 ever built, specified by Ojjeh in a bespoke shade of 'Yquem', which went on to become renowned as 'Mansour Orange'. Alongside it sit icons of McLaren's modern era, including the P1 GTR, Speedtail, multiple Senna variants, the Sabre and the Elva, making the collection the most complete of its kind."
"The collection has been sold in its entirety to a single, undisclosed buyer, despite world-record offers being made for the McLaren F1 alone. Both the Ojjeh family and Hartley were determined that the cars should remain together as a historic whole, in recognition of their provenance and Ojjeh's vision. "To have been entrusted with the sale of this extraordinary collection by the Ojjeh family has been a true privilege," said Tom Hartley Jnr. "This is not just a sale - it is the respectful transfer of a legacy. The Mansour Ojjeh collection represents the very best of what McLaren stands for - innovation, individuality, quality and excellence.""
A 20-car McLaren collection curated by Mansour Ojjeh was sold intact to a single undisclosed buyer. The ensemble includes the last McLaren F1 ever built, finished in Ojjeh's bespoke 'Yquem' known as 'Mansour Orange', and major modern McLaren models such as the P1 GTR, Speedtail, Senna variants, Sabre and Elva. Nearly all cars are the final chassis of their model and remain in factory-fresh, unused condition. The Ojjeh family and seller insisted the cars stay together to preserve provenance and to honor Ojjeh's vision and legacy. Tom Hartley Jnr managed the transaction and emphasized the sale as a respectful transfer of a legacy.
