    Mecum To Auction Ferrari LaFerrari Coupe And Aperta Duo

    When Ferrari launched the LaFerrari in 2013, not everyone who could afford the hypercar was able to secure one as only 499 units were produced. The Italian manufacturer then gave potential buyers another chance to own the LaFerrari in 2016 by offering a topless model called the Aperta. Still, with production limited to just 210 units, not everyone looking for one was able to purchase it.

    Those who are still in the market for a LaFerrari will be delighted to hear that they now have another shot at owning one, or two. Mecum Auctions is selling a pair of matching LaFerrari’s in both coupe and Aperta form. The auction is set to take place in Kissimmee, Florida in January 2019.

    Both special models of the Prancing Horse are currently owned by American executive producer Michael Fuchs. It seems the 72-year old TV guru did not spend much time driving the cars as the coupe has only done 672 km while the Aperta has just 280 km on the clock. Although the LaFerrari’s are similarly spec’d, there are some differences: inside both cars boast black interiors with red details, from outside both feature black alloys with red trimmings. However, the coupe wears special-order Rosso Fuoco body paint with black brake calipers while its drop-top sibling is finished in Rosso Corsa and sports red brake calipers.

    For cars of this type, one shouldn’t be shocked to hear that prices have been mounting quite steeply. The LaFerrari coupe is now valued at just under $5 million (approx. R70.8 million). Last year at an RM Sotheby auction, an Aperta sold for a whopping $10 million (approx. R141.5 million). Those looking to buy these gems should therefore be ready to dig deep into those pockets.

    • The Audi RS3 is one of two ultimate ‘mega hatches’, and probably the best of the breed. Its astonishing pace and theatrical engine combine with huge grip and more of a driver focus than previous generations. It’s also a brilliant daily.

Are you parting with R1.3m (or more) for one? Let us know in the comments below.

    • Menacing Frozen Brooklyn Grey Metallic BMW M4 CSL sold by @bmwbryanston spotted in Linksfield recently by @thomasovitale 😎

Just 15 of these came into the country priced at R3.57m.

Would you prefer this or the freshly revealed M3 CS?

    • The BMW i4 M50 is quite possibly the best EV we have had the pleasure of testing.

It's superbly comfortable but at the simple touch of a button, it switches from tourer to tornado and you find yourself instantly doing speeds you should not be doing.

While not all EVs will have the same refinement or scintillating performance, this was both relaxing and thrilling to drive.

The Gran Coupé is a handsome car with a sense of sleek length and disguises its hatchback as a booted saloon rear end and that M Portimao Blue metallic paint certainly garnered a lot of positive attention.

Compared with the BMW iX it’s less of a show-stopper, but comes with a much more attractive price tag – and while the i4 is still quite the financial investment (R1,6m) we feel it gives you excellent value in return.

Yes, we did have a few charging issues (Eskom) and if you don't have a Wallbox charger at home filling up with petrol is MUCH easier. However, that being said if you’re looking for an outstanding driving experience both on the twisties and on the highway, this is definitely worth considering if you have decided to make the jump to the electric car.

    • The totally bonkers Ferrari 812 Competizione was spotted in Bryanston today by Brad Ainge.

It actually makes the F12tdf look quite tame in comparison. Which would you rather have?

Priced around R14m depending on spec.

    • Our time has come to an end with the most potent version of Mzansi’s favourite bakkie, the new Toyota Hilux GR-Sport.

The 2.8-litre turbo diesel powerplant has been tweaked to push out 165kW and 550 Nm thanks to an updated ECU which also responsible for the much needed revised mapping of the six-speed auto.

The sporty Hilux gets new monotube shocks as well as stiffer coil springs which make the bakkie a lot more settled at higher speed and provide great feedback on some of the twisty bits. If you don’t have a full load at the back however, you might find it a tad too stiff and rather twitchy for day to day driving. 

Inside you get a load of sporty touches including “carbon fibre” trim pieces but the highlight has to be the race inspired front seats complete with Alcantara inserts and some GR badging on the headrests. 

For the Hilux customers, this is a welcome addition to the range as the exterior and interior aesthetics align very neatly with the GR brand.

Yours from R891,400. Are you picking this or the Legend RS?
