A wrecked McLaren supercar will go under the hammer after a top-gun global executive crashed it during a test drive on an Auckland motorway.
The black 2015 McLaren 650s coupe will go to auction on June 27 at 10am, with the Herald understanding there has already been interest from as far afield as London and the United Arab Emirates.
Manheim New Zealand national salvage manager Michael Fernandes told the Herald the wreck was being sold by the auto auction company on behalf of the insurer.
He said the auction will be streamed live around the world "to allow the global salvage market to partake in the auction and not miss the opportunity to own this diamond in the rough".
The supercar has a 3.8L petrol engine and its odometer has a total of 901km.
