Lewis Hamilton Makes $10 Million Profit After Selling His One-off $1.4 Million Pagani Zonda

Lewis Hamilton makes $10m profit after selling his one-off Pagani Zonda he bought in 2014 for $1.4m.

Mercedes driver Hamilton’s Zonda now sold to an unnamed UK-based buyer is one of just five official “760” Zondas built.

But the Hypercar is the only “760” to carry the “LH” moniker – which stands for his name, Lewis Hamilton.

While it was still in Hamilton’s custody, the 36 year old said the Zonda was “terrible to drive,” – “handling-wise.

But the UK-born driver noted that the Pagani Zonda was the “best-sounding car” in his collection.

Lewis Hamilton once suffered a minor crash while driving the Pagani Zonda 760LH in Monaco in 2015.
