MSO Special! 1998 McLaren F1 #069 – Low Miles, Full Service History, CD Player

1998 McLaren F1 doors gifThe opposite of most classified ads today from McLaren Special Operations!

The final F1 hypercar masterpiece, chassis #069, is available to a new home.  This car is absolutely concours-flawless and has been maintained since new by the MSO Heritage center.

They’ve spiffed it up to as-new condition.  This car was clearly owned by a VIP for its whole life, and the trappings all come along near 20 years later when it is sold almost as-new. Including the titanium toolkit, toolbox, custom luggage and many other goodies.

Pricing is rumored to be a cool $3-million.  As the only way to own what is essentially a “new” F1, that seems like pretty fair value!  After all, fewer than 70 were made in total from 1993 to 1998.

We like the dark charcoal metallic paintwork and satin-grey wheels, which may have been kissed by MSO for a bit more modern appeal than the often-silver F1 stock livery.  What other colors look good?  All of them.  Including Marlboro White!

THE McLAREN F1 – A TRUE ICON

Designed by Gordon Murray and Peter Stevens, the McLaren F1 was developed and designed with a no compromise approach, world-beating Formula 1 expertise and technology, and the most driver-focused driving experience at its core. A true pioneering tour de force, the McLaren F1 was the first road car to feature a full carbon fibre chassis, and with a central driving position, engine bay lined with gold and famed McLaren obsession for technical excellence, is considered a true modern-day automotive icon. Powered by a bespoke naturally-aspirated mid-mounted 6.1-litre V12 engine producing 636PS (627bhp), it broke the record for fastest production roadcar with a top speed of 390.7km/h (242.8 mph) and, more than 20 years on, still holds the title of fastest naturally-aspirated production road car ever built.

McLAREN SPECIAL OPERATIONS

McLaren Special Operations grew out of the McLaren Customer Care programme, which dates back more than 20 years to the days of the McLaren F1 road car. The team looked after servicing and maintaining McLaren F1s for owners the world over. It also undertook personalisation when cars changed hands: new owners often wanted to put their own marks on their vehicles. Today, MSO continues to service, maintain and offer brokerage services for all examples of the McLaren F1.
