Automotive enthusiasts are often enamoured with the nostalgic past, yearning for the “Golden Years” of automobiles when aerodynamics were a footnote, safety sometimes an afterthought, but radical designs resulted in some of the most beautiful cars of the 20th century. In the 1960s McLaren came up with the McLaren-Elva, the open-top racer that helped establish McLaren as a commercial and racing force before they began full scale production programs. Lightweight, high power, and with excellent proportions, McLaren had a winner on their hands. Fast forward to the 21st century, and modern-day McLaren announced their newest McLaren Elva, an open-top street car built as the homage to the original 60s car.

Unveiled in 2019, McLaren created the Elva as the pinnacle of open-air driving, encouraging your senses to take everything in from the open cockpit with massive power behind you. A familiar 802 horsepower 4.0L twin-turbo V8 engine propels the featherweight car forward in astounding fashion, under 3 seconds for 0-60mph and 6.7 seconds for 0-124mph. The carbon fiber chassis, bespoke to the Elva, helps the nimble car stay lightweight, tipping the scales at 2,809 lbs and is one of the lightest cars Mclaren has ever produced. McLaren, no strangers to the magic of aerodynamics, created a special automotive system called Active Air Management for the speedster. This system channels air over the cockpit, creating a bubble of calmer air that reduces turbulence and enjoyment at higher speeds. Building just 149 examples worldwide, the Elva is an exceptionally rare vehicle that was made for the driving enthusiast with a special nod to McLaren’s past.

This 2021 McLaren Elva was specifically built in mind of honoring McLaren driver Daniel Ricciardo’s 2021 Formula 1 Monza victory, complete in matching livery, a true “one-of-one” design. The owner, a fan of Formula 1, McLaren, and Daniel Ricciardo, worked closely with the McLaren factory to create a true 1-of-1 creation, complete in matte Papaya Spark paint with matching side graphics, and painted numbers. The factory options list is nothing short of extraordinary, with $294,465 in custom options. Those options are listed on the original window sticker and below.

Upon completion, McLaren surprised Daniel Ricciardo and Lando Norris with 2 McLaren Elvas, both in their own unique liveries at Woking. Seeing them for the 1st time in their respective colors was captured in a promotional video by McLaren, Daniel Ricciardo suggested that they sign their respective cars. Hopping into the passenger’s seat, the “Honey Badger” signed the carbon fiber dashboard and described his signature at that moment, “That’s a good one.” Described as one of his proudest F1 achievements, Monza became the 8-time race winner’s final Formula 1 victory before retiring at the end of the 2024 season.

After the festivities had ended, the caretaker had the entire Elva wrapped in paint protection film to preserve the Matte Papaya Spark paint, and drove the car sparingly. Upon arriving at Canepa, it was apparent that it was kept in exceptional condition. Today the car is in brand new condition, with only 257 miles. Included with the car are its original window sticker, matching helmets, car cover, cabin cover, books, tools, and 2 keys. Ready for a speedster experience, this 2021 McLaren Elva is one of the most special examples of just 149 built for the entire world, forever dedicated to McLaren’s former F1 driver, Daniel Ricciardo.
