Rowan Atkinson may be known for the comedic clumsiness of Mr. Bean, but in reality, he is a highly sophisticated car enthusiast with a Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering and a penchant for high-speed racing.
He famously treated his legendary McLaren F1 as a daily driver for nearly two decades, even overseeing a record-breaking $1.4 million repair after a major accident before selling it for a massive profit.
Beyond just supercars, Atkinson is a fixture at historic racing events like the Goodwood Revival and holds a professional heavy-goods vehicle license.
His diverse collection has ranged from quirky Lancia rally icons to a one-of-a-kind V16-powered Rolls-Royce, reflecting a deep appreciation for mechanical artistry over mere social status.
If you could own any car from a celebrity’s personal collection, would you choose Atkinson’s battle-scarred McLaren or a pristine museum piece?
