Normally German Taxi Yellow over burgundy wouldn’t be our first choice when speccing a limited edition automotive icon, but this pair of Mercedes SLR McLarens in matching McDonalds uniforms prove that Merc’s super grand tourer can pull off almost any colour combination. What's more, both could be yours at Bonhams' Goodwood Festival of Speed auction on July 14th. 

Let’s start with the Roadster. Any prospective buyer of this wild 2008 example will either require thick skin or a case of colour blindness, because there will be no hiding the fact that you paid good money for such an outlandish SLR when you’re cruising with the roof down. That said, you’ll be the first to enjoy this super grand tourer on the road, as this SLR Roadster was dry stored since acquisition and now shows only around 100km on the odometer. Admittedly, this SLR will require some recommissioning, but at least you’ll be able to say that nobody else owns a ride quite like yours. 

The next SLR somehow still manages to outdo the aforementioned Roadster in terms of sheer craziness. This is a one-of-one Crown Edition coupé, and like its jaundiced sibling, this is an extremely low mileage example with just 41km on the clock. However, what makes the Crown Edition truly unique are the various options borrowed from the fire-breathing 722 variant of the SLR. These include a carbon fibre front splitter, rear diffuser, rear wheel dams and front floor. It rides on polished 722 wheels and features the 722’s snarling 641bhp supercharged V8 among a host of other upgrades. This example has spent most of its life on static display, and will require recommissioning to enjoy fully. However, if you’re in the market for a pair of super grand tourers like nothing else the world has seen, then these two SLRs would make for a truly unique two car garage.
