Description from the seller

McLaren MP4/4 Tribute – Museum quality, with unique original components

An extremely rare and meticulously crafted McLaren MP4/4 replica, displayed for years in a museum and featuring numerous original Formula 1 components. This is not just a display piece; it's a car built with exceptional attention to detail, making it one of the most visually and technically convincing MP4/4 representations you'll find.

The car has:

- original brake discs
- original Goodyear F1 tires
- original front and rear rims
- original carbon brake ducts
- original gearbox oil cooler
- original MP4/4 steering wheel
- original F1 belts

According to the previous owner, the dashboard and cockpit have been meticulously recreated and look very realistic, as can be seen in the museum photos. The vehicle was carefully stored indoors for years and used as a display piece, so its overall condition is exceptionally good.

This MP4/4 replica is ideal for:

- Collectors who want to own one of the most iconic F1 cars of all time without the eight-figure price of an original
- High-end man caves, museums, motorsport lounges or brand experience spaces
- Brand activation, marketing events, F1 hospitality and VIP settings
- Exclusive art and automotive investment collections

The MP4/4 is the car with which Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost almost completely dominated the 1988 Formula 1 season. No fewer than 15 of the 16 pole positions were secured, and 15 of the 16 races were won by the iconic MP4/4.
The design, colours and proportions of this replica completely revive that legendary era.

A rare opportunity. This is more than a replica. This is motorsport history in physical form.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle.
