Hi how are you, Zohair here from PetrolHead. Now expect cars from posh brands to be expensive. It’s just the way it is, isn’t it? But you won’t believe how much some new cars have sold over the years. So I’ve put together a countdown of the most expensive new cars ever sold. I’ve only included one car from each premium brand. So it’s not just a long list of Bugattis. And every car I’ve picked has to cost more than 1,01,74,395 rupees (100 thousand pounds) because let’s face it that’s basically pocket money these days and the price do not include taxes because this can alter the price of the car massively depending on where you live. Anyway let’s start.
Bmw M8 Gran Coupe 1 of 8
BMW may well be quite an expensive car brand. But it doesn’t really build special one-off cars for wealthy petrolheads. This means that the most expensive new BMW ever sold is the current brand new BMW M8 Competition Grand Coupe. But it’s not just any old M8 Grand Coupe. I’m talking about the special First Edition model. BMW will only make 8 of them and they’re all painted to match the original M8 concept car from 2018. This special edition costs 177,000 pounds and before tax. And that’s more than 70,000 pounds more than the standard M8 Grand Coupe before Taxes.
Range Rover Sentinel
Land Rover built an armored version of its latest rover. Its called the Sentinel and its bulletproof, bombproof and bargainproof as well. these sort of cars don’t come cheap. But annoyingly Land Rover hasn’t fully revealed exactly how much the Sentinel costs. Maybe you can’t put a price on not being shot. This means that the most expensive Land Rover I can put on my list is the old Range Rover Sentinel from 2015. That costs a colossal 350,000 pounds before tax. But you did get a 340 horsepower supercharged V6 and enough body armor to withstand 15 kilograms of TNT exploding nearby.
Maserati MC12
Maserati has just released a brand new mid-engine sports car called the MC20. But it hasn’t made a proper supercar since the MC12 from 2004. This shared loads of bits with Ferrari Enzo. Like it carbon chassis and it’s 6 liter naturally aspirated V12. But unlike the Enzo the MC12 was actually designed to be a racing car. So it came packed with all sorts of fancy carbon fiber wings and splitters which also made it really really expensive. It cost a bit more than 400,000 pounds before tax way back in 2004.
Well that’s it for today, I will see you tomorrow
Goodbye
