We continue our coverage op the remarkable RM Sotheby's Las Vegas auction that will be held on the eve of the inaugural Las Vegas Grand Prix. Fittingly, one of the absolute headliners is this Mercedes-Benz W04 Formula 1 cars. Raced during the 2013 season, the W04 was a first sign of things to come. It was the first season that Lewis Hamilton raced for the team, and he used this very W04 to score his maiden win for Mercedes-Benz. It is understood to be the only one of its type in private hands and thanks to being a very significant car in Hamilton's illustrious career, it is estimated to sell for over $10 million.
Joining the W04 at the top of the estimate table are two other, closely related, Mercedes-Benz machines. Slapped with a $10.5 - $13 million target is this CLK GTR Roadster. One of just six built on surplus chassis, this example has barely been used, having covered just 170 km in the last 21 years. Having been on static display, the CLK GTR Roadster will require a full recommission to get back on the road.
Underlining the premium commanded by the rare Roadster version is the CLK GTR Coupe also consigned. Its new owner should bid in the region of $8 - $9 million for the CLK GTR that starred in the famous 'Ultimate Group Test' video alongside a McLaren F1 and a Porsche 911 GT1.
