McLaren Automotive is the newest company on the list, having started in 1989 with the purpose of bringing Formula One technology onto the neighborhood streets. If you’re on a budget, you should probably look elsewhere. Their “entry level” model costs $250,000, while their fully loaded bespoke cars fetch a million dollars and more. If you’re fortunate enough to own one, you’re among a select group. They’re definitely on every celebrity’s wishlist.
Jaguar Land Rover
Headquartered in Coventry, England, Jaguar got its start in 1922 as the Swallow Sidecar Company, but after World War II it received its current name for completely understandable reasons: they wanted to avoid associations with the SS initials. Jaguar has gone through various mergers and acquisitions over the years, and is currently owned by the Indian company Tata Motors. Jaguar is also the official car of the British Prime Minister and also provides vehicles to King Charles III.
