Sebastian Vettel , a four-time Formula 1 world champion, has put eight cars from his private collection for sale. Now running for Aston Martin after leaving Ferrari, the reasons behind the sale of so many precious machines, many of them personalized, are unknown.
Most models are super sports, but the performance is not strange to the rest: the most modest of the eight models on sale is a BMW Z8.
You would expect nothing else if the sale of all these cars would generate interest. Not only because they are the cars they are (many of them limited production), but also because they come from who they come, four-time Formula 1 champion Sebastian Vettel. No wonder, as of the date of publication of this article, six of the eight have already found a buyer.
