Despite being owned by someone as famous as Jordan, it is not only the celebrity factor that is helping the car have such a price. The Mercedes has a little over 1,000 miles to its name and it seems like Jordan was not a huge fan of driving it.

Moreover, it is a rare car. The Mercedes Benz SLR McLaren has around 2,000 units produced to its name. Out of those, Jordan’s 722 model has only 150 units in the world.
