Got $15 Million? Actor Rowan Atkinson Has A Car For Sale
January 25, 2015 4:58 PM ET
Mr. Bean is selling his car.
No, not the lime green British Leyland Mini that was the prop for so many of the character's antics. We're talking about the purple McLaren F1 "supercar" owned by the actor who plays Mr. Bean, Rowan Atkinson. It's the same car that Atkinson famously wrapped around a tree in 2011.
The 59-year-old Atkinson is selling the vehicle, which can reach 240 mph, The Telegraph says. It's expected to fetch offers of around $15 million....
George Harrison owned one too. In the video below He, Ringo and Paul show up for an interview in it. I'ts a three seater. If you won the lottery for 200 million dollars back when they were for sale, you most likely wouldn't have been able to get one if you wanted one. They were sold to the elite of society, racing or like a King or such I believe.
