A 2004 Porsche Carrera GT (pictured above) headlines a fantastic selection of supercars offered at Silverstone Auctions’ upcoming classic car sale at Race Retro.

This example, estimated at between £400,000 and £450,000, is finished in GT Silver Metallic with a black leather interior.  The car was once owned by businessman and F1 Team principal Gerard Lopez and has covered a mere 18,000 miles from new.

The Porsche joins several other supercars in the auction. A left hand drive 1994 Jaguar XJ220. Estimated at between £255,000 and £295,000 has covered a total mileage of 4,239 kilometres and has been professionally laid up and stored as part of a very significant private collection.

In February 2011 it was sent to the respected Jaguar specialist, Don Law, where it had a new fuel cell fitted and all fuel related items serviced with the hoses being replaced with stainless steel over braid, along with a full 24 month comprehensive service.

For those who prefer their supercars a little wilder, two of Lamborghinis’ finest offerings will be auctioned. Firstly a 2010 Lamborghini Murcielago 670-SV, estimated at between £300,000 and £340,000, and a rare right-hand drive 1981 Lamborghini Countach LP400 S, estimated at between £200,000 and £250,000.
