We can’t stress the excitement enough when we first learned that Rowan Atkinson is one of the lucky owners of the legendary McLaren F1. It’s a car that went down in history as one of the most breathtaking rides with a naturally-aspirated engine, and it was the fastest production car at the time that marked an era. Rowan got a burgundy F1, one of ju...
Another exclusive car on Rowan Atinkson’s car list is his 1986′ Aston Martin Zagato, a car that’s one of just 80 units ever produced. It’s a fierce ride with a 5.3-liter V8 and 430 horsepower and it comes in a beautiful and vibrant red color. This car is a pure piece of art and it’s said that the famous actor invested over $300,000 in simply bringi...
Moving on, we have yet another spectacular car on the list – Rowan Atkinson’s 1939′ BMW 328. It’s a piece of work in the automotive industry and comes with a hefty price tag that it surely compensates for in the driving sensation alone. To make things even more exciting, Rowan owns a Roadster version of the car, and it’s said that just under 150 Ro...
The Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupe is another piece of art in Rowan Atkinson’s collection. It’s simply a car that features all the luxury and comfort you’d need, along with the stellar performance of the 6.75-liter V12 engine. However, even though the engine is one of the largest you can find, the performance is around 5 seconds from 0 to 60 due to the ...
There’s seemingly a special connection between luxurious sportscars and the burgundy color, at least when it comes to Rowan Atkinson’s collection. This time, he’s got a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG in this color, and we have to admit that it fits it rather well. Of course, that’s not the only highlight of this beautiful coupe with Gullwing doors and a mig...
This one is a vehicle that you might have not expected to see in Rowan Atkinson’s collection, yet it fits his style and taste in cars perfectly. In terms of color, you’ve guessed it – it’s yet another burgundy hotrod. However, this time it’s the color of the rare Lancia Delta Integrale Evo II Edizione Finale. It’s a truly special car, with a 2.0-li...
The next car on our list of special rides owned by Rowan Atkinson is his unique Land Rover Defender 90 Heritage. It’s a special version and a car that’s designed to resemble some happier times and the era when the Defender was one of the most popular SUVs. The British Heritage edition has a vintage green color and is powered by a 2.2-liter turbodie...
Every automotive enthusiast stands still even for a brief mention of the Honda NSX. It’s already a legendary car powered by a 3.0-liter V6 engine with 252 horsepower, but we suspect that Rowan Atkinson, being the petrolhead that he is, owns a more powerful 3.2-liter version with manual transmission and 290 horsepower. It’s one of the only cars of t...
The next car we’ll talk about is Rowan’s Aston Martin Vantage, a 1984′ modelyear ride that’s a genuine sports classic. It’s a car that looks like something to come out of James Bond movies, and we can surely see why the famous actor appreciates this exact model. It’s a sporty coupe with a V8 engine under the hood, which guarantees a great ride and ...
Finally, we wrap up this list with an interesting addition to Rowan Atkinsons’s incredible car collection – his Audi A1. It’s the lowest size level car made by Audi and it’s a rather convenient car for daily needs and driving around town since you can fit it into the tightest parking spot. It’s not special by any means, but it seems that Rowan was ...
