The collection of 25 exclusive cars is valued at over 12,000,000 euros and includes some special models such as the Lamborghini Veneno Roadster, the Koenigsegg One: 1, the McLaren P1, the Porsche Carrera GT, the Bugatti Veyron, the Ferrari Enzo and LaFerrari, the F12 TDF and Aston Martin One-77.

·             Lamborghini Veneno Roadster – one of nine units ever made, produced in the colors of the Italian flag to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the company’s founding: red, white and green.

·             Ferrari LaFerrari – has just 1,000 km on the clock and an estimated price of 2.3-2.5 million euros.

·             Koenigsegg One: 1 – one of seven cars produced by the Swedish company, the model described as the first megacar in history because its engine produces a megawatt power (1,360 hp). The car has only been driven a total of 597km and has an estimated cost of between 1.6 and 2 million euros which is believed to be half of its real value.

·             Aston Martin One-77 – Model 35 of 77. Once a flagship model, produced between 2009 and 2012, with a 7.3-liter V12 engine capable of catapulting this car to more than 350km/h. The estimated price is 1.2-1.6 million euros.

·             Bugatti Veyron 16.4 – a very good example and painted in the color of Atlantic Blue, with over 4,800 kilometers driven and valued at 600-800 thousand euros.
