Those who also yearn for an experience like this can do so for less than 104,000 euros. This price will get you the MTM A1 Nardo Edition with all the additions required for a record-breaking ride.

Karla Kanz, responsible for Public Relations und Marketing at MTM, proudly accepted the award from Auto Bild Sportscars Deputy Editor-in-Chief Ben Arnold: “Nothing carries more weight than expert opinion backed by conclusive facts. This is the type of public recognition that we like best.”
