Ayrton Senna's 1984 Toleman TG184-2 goes up for auction

A truly unique piece of motorsport history~ a Toleman TG184-2 Formula One car driven by Ayrton Senna in his debut F1 season.
This particular car has become the 'stuff of legend' and is perhaps best known for Senna's remarkable second place drive in the rain-soaked 1984 Monaco GP, arguably the race which first demonstrated his extraordinary talents to the world.

Senna mania is now reaching fever pitch - and rightly so - as he's considered by many as the greatest F1 driver we've ever seen. It goes without saying that this will be one of the star attractions of the sale as it represents a very rare chance to own a much sought after piece of motorsport and Ayrton Senna history.

Indeed, the Toleman - which Senna also raced to 3rd in the British and 7th in the Canadian Grand Prix's - has been in private ownership for the past 16 years, meaning that Silverstone Auctions proudly bring the car to market for the first time in recent history.

Fully restored and running on the button, the car is capable of being raced or demonstrated globally as the fortunate new owner sees fit.

What's the estimate?

 

This car was auctioned two times before this one. The last one only for €27,000 arround 16 years ago. I really don't know the estimated price.

Today is the 52nd Senna's birthday.

 

OMG I want this.

 

why the two wings?

 

Because race car.

 

I'd rather bid on his McLaren MP4-4.

 

Senna was incredible in the rain that day in Monaco, it was an amazing display of skill. What's nice about this Toleman is that day he achieved his first Formula One podium as well as his first fastest lap

A great piece of Senna history right there.
