Just in through JamesList:
Hans-Gunther Zach is selling his entire collection of Rolls’ and Bentleys and center piece of the collection, the 1934 Rolls Royce Phantom II 40/50 HP Continental also known as the Star of India is listed for £8,000,000
If the sale goes through, it is believed to be the highest price ever paid for a car.
The Star featured revolutionary new technology like adaptive curve lights following the movements of the steering wheel and an “all weather” Torpedo Convertible made by Thrupp & Maberly. The engine is a more powerful Continental 7.7 litre pushrod V8 and the Maharaja originally had 14 headlamps put on the car to combat the dark Indian nights, or just scare the living daylights out of his donkey riding countrymen.
