Brit Man First To Acquire Trifecta Of Current Hypercars
What a lucky guy.
http://www.motorauthority.com/news/1...rent-hypercars
Most folks might dream of owning one super or hypercar. The current crop of poster-worthy vehicles include the Ferrari LaFerrari, McLaren P1, and the Porsche 918 Spyder. Paul Bailey is a man who dreams a bit bigger. The U.K.-based businessman just completed the Trifecta, and snagged the keys to all three.
Mr. Bailey and his wife were the owners of a communications company that they sold for over $40 million. Since then, Bailey has been enjoying a handful of exotic cars that he owns. With some national pride, it's not surprising to see the McLaren P1 amongst his fleet. Now, in the span of a day, Bailey added both the LaFerrari and the 918 Spyder, with the trip documented by SupercarDRIVER.
Bailey and his wife drove the P1 over to the Ferrari dealership to pick up the custom-ordered LaFerrari. His wife hopped into the Ferrari and they set off for the Porsche dealership. A friend who was along for the journey got into the P1, Paul's wife was in the Ferrari, and Bailey hopped into the 918. The convoy then set off for, what we're guessing, is more enjoyment of a wonderful life.
Don't think Paul Bailey hoards these cars for himself however, as it seems he quite enjoys sharing them and doing so for charity. Bailey is a member of a group that raffles off rides in his cars, and the money supports worthy causes. One of those involved with the group believes that Bailey has raised over $40,000 just from offering rides in his P1 over the course of his ownership period.
Sounds like a man who worked hard to build a company, cashed out, and is enjoying his money while helping others. Good for you Mr. Bailey. Take all three to the track and wring them out.

WORLD EXCLUSIVE - We accompanied Paul Bailey who was the first UK collector to own all three hybrid hypercars. Watch as he arrives in the P1 to collect the LaFerrari, then takes both to collect the 918 Spyder, then drives away in all three. We also captured his first impressions behind the wheel of the LaF and 918.
