McLaren<\/a> Formula 1 driver Lando Norris<\/a> has opened up on his impressive car collection, revealing which of the line-up he is most proud of and detailing his shared love of cars with his father.<\/p>\n

After reluctantly admitting that he currently owns roughly 16 cars during an appearance on\u00a0Quadcast<\/a>, a podcast from the company he founded, Quadrant, Norris chose his Lamborghini Miura as the car that means the most to him.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Norris’s Miura is an original P400, powered by a 3,929cc V12, and is one of just 762 ever produced. It’s reportedly valued at\u00a0\u00a32million.<\/p>\n

“I love historic [cars] more than modern cars,” the McLaren F1 driver explained.<\/p>\n

“My favourite car? The one that\u2019s meant the most to me, the car I\u2019m most proud of, is my Lamborghini Miura. I think it’s one of the most beautiful cars ever made.<\/p>\n

“This was my first proper gift to myself of like, I\u2019m going to spend a little bit of money and buy a very nice car.”<\/p>\n

Another unique car in his collection is his chrome Shelby Cobra, which he drove to the 2024 British Grand Prix.<\/p>\n

“There\u2019s maybe a couple that I\u2019m like, I just have to – my Cobra, for instance. I was like, I need to drive a Cobra. And I drove it into Silverstone and I was like, yeah, this is the coolest. It is the loudest thing in the world.”<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old grew up around his father’s passion for racing and cars, which he now loves sharing with his parents.<\/p>\n

“I grew up liking cars. My dad loved them when he was younger,” Norris continued. “When he was younger, he loved them, and he had a passion for them. And now I almost get to share his love for cars.<\/p>\n

“And we get to travel the world, and my dad and my mum come to quite a few of the races, especially my dad. And now I get to live his dream, I think, of when he was younger, because him and his dad used to go to some of the races, and they were like, this is the coolest thing ever.<\/p>\n

“So I think that\u2019s why my dad loves it so much, as he\u2019s always loved the cars, but now he gets to experience it kind of through me. So I think that\u2019s pretty cool for him.”<\/p>\n

Other cars in Norris’s extensive collection include a McLaren 765LT, Ferrari<\/a> F40, Porsche Carrera GT, McLaren P1, and a modified Land Rover.<\/p>\n
