Veneno Roadster, One:1, One-77, LaFerrari, P1, Veyron headline 25-car Bonham’s auction

Bonhams is holding a no-reserve

auction

in fall 2019 that includes some of the most valuable and sought-after

supercars

of the past decade. The lot of 25 beautiful collector items includes a

Lamborghini Veneno Roadster

, a

Koenigsegg

One:1, an

Aston Martin

One-77, a

Ferrari LaFerrari

, a

McLaren

P1, and a

Bugatti Veyron

. The collection, which was seized from a corrupt politician from Equatorial Guinea, is valued at roughly $13 million.

If selling off future classics that are still in their infancy as collector items seems strange, it’s because this is not a straightforward situation. These cars will be sold off by the State of Geneva, not a person. The collection was previously owned by the vice president of Equatorial Guinea, Teodoro Obiang, but the cars were seized when he was

placed under investigation

for money laundering and unfair management of public interests.

These 25 cars, which were located in Geneva, were first sequestered in fall 2016. A trial court ordered them sold off, and the money earned from the sales would be invested in social programs that benefit Equatorial Guinea. And so, Equatorial Guinea is about to see an influx of cash, as every vehicle is valued in the hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of dollars.

The rarest might be the

Koenigsegg One:1

. One of only

six remaining

, it has 371 miles on the dial, and is valued at roughly $1.8 million. The

Lamborghini

Veneno Roadster, one of nine in the world, is a close second. It has 202 miles logged, and is valued at about $5.1 million.

The

Aston Martin One-77

is another rare bird. It is example No. 35 of 77, holds a 7.3-liter V12 engine, and is valued at about $1.4 million. A

McLaren P1

,

Ferrari LaFerrari

, and Bugatti Veyron 16.4 round out the top of the list. The remaining cars are not fully detailed, but they include examples from Mercedes-Maybach,

Bentley

,

Maserati

and

Porsche

.

The auction will take place on Sunday, Sept. 29, at the Bonmont

Golf

& Country Club near Lake Geneva. For more photos and information, visit
