If you race at the pinnacle of motorsport, what do you drive on your days off? After all, no road car can possibly deliver the same sort of thrills as a modern Formula 1 machine, so plenty of F1 drivers just take whatever car is thrown their way as a promotional tie-in with their team or engine supplier. Lando Norris, though, isn’t one of those drivers.
The 25-year-old Brit, it would appear, is a dyed-in-the-wool car enthusiast in addition to being a pretty handy driver, and he has a personal collection of some of the rawest, most driver-focused supercars of all time, plus a few oddities here and there. Here’s everything we know he owns.
Liberty Walk Nissan Skyline GT-R
The latest addition to Lando’s collection is the first Japanese car we’re aware of him owning, but as befits a top F1 driver, it’s nothing run-of-the-mill. The R32 Nissan Skyline GT-R is already a legend, the first of a trio of ’90s Skyline GT-Rs powered by the hugely tunable RB26DETT 2.6-litre twin-turbo straight-six.
Norris’, though, has had a makeover from Japanese widebody kit manufacturer Liberty Walk. Known for its extravagant kits, nothing is too sacred for LBWK, as it modified cars as rare and valuable as the Ferrari F40 and Lamborghini Miura (this is not the last time you’ll hear about either of those cars on this list).
Its take on the R32 features a wild, overexaggerated bodykit that’s emblematic of a style of Japanese customisation known as the ‘Kaido Racer’, inspired by the machines that raced in Japan’s Super Silhouette series in the 1980s. Reportedly the second R32 to be given this kit by Liberty Walk, Norris’ is decked out in a livery promoting his Quadrant clothing brand.
McLaren 765LT Spider
The job of driving for the McLaren F1 team comes with its perks. As well as, y’know, travelling the world racing at the very pinnacle of motorsport and getting paid millions to do it, there’s also a pretty sweet company car deal.
Last year, Norris took delivery of a McLaren 765LT Spider, personalised by him alongside McLaren Automotive’s MSO division. The drop-top version of McLaren’s latest track-focused supercar gets 755bhp from a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, meaning it’ll hit 62mph in 2.8 seconds and a top speed of 205mph. Norris’ is finished in dark blue carbon fibre with brake calipers painted in the yellow of his racing helmet. The 765LT Spider started at around £300,000 when new, but Lando was likely given his as part of his McLaren contract.
McLaren Senna
The 765LT isn’t the only hardcore McLaren Lando owns. Earlier this year, renowned vehicle wrapping outfit Yiannimize had a McLaren Senna in its shop which apparently belongs to Norris too.
Named after arguably McLaren’s (or anyone’s) greatest F1 driver of all, the Senna is a limited-run, track-biased hypercar that produces 789bhp from its 3.8-litre twin-turbo V8, as well as a peak of 800kg of downforce. Just 500 of the standard versions of the car were made. Today, the entry point for a Senna is roughly £800,000.
Lamborghini Miura
Moving away from modern supercars, Norris owns an example of the car many argue kickstarted the entire genre: the Lamborghini Miura. His is an original P400 version, which makes around 345bhp from its mid-mounted, 3.9-litre V12. It’s finished in the eye-catching spec of deep blue over orange leather.
Of course, being an older Italian car, it’s not without its foibles, as Norris found out when he had to get it bump-started by a gaggle of fans in Monaco earlier this year. These days, you’ll need around £1.5 million to get hold of a P400.
Porsche Carrera GT
What looks to be the latest addition to Norris’ collection is the fearsome Porsche Carrera GT. Powered by a howling 603bhp, 5.7-litre V10 and driving the rear wheels through a six-speed manual gearbox, this early noughties hypercar has a reputation for tricky handling.
Norris has been spotted driving his around Monaco. It’s finished in a classic spec: dark green over tan leather. In 2025, it’s rare to find one of the 1270 Carrera GTs built listed for less than £1 million.
Ferrari F40
We weren’t actually aware that Norris owned a Ferrari F40 until we found out in one of the worst possible ways in January 2025. Footage emerged of the car – not being driven by Norris, who was reportedly celebrating the new year in Abu Dhabi at the time – being driven near Monaco, when, after a burst of acceleration, the car broke traction, spinning across the road into a barrier.
Unlike another F40 that was crashed in a very similar fashion in the UK in the same month, the damage to Norris’ F40 doesn’t seem too bad, so hopefully it’ll find itself repaired before too long.
As for the F40 itself, it’s not too surprising that Norris owns one. We know from the Miura and Carrera GT that he has an appreciation for a raw, analogue supercar, and the F40 might just be the ultimate example of that. A 2.9-litre twin-turbo V8 sends 471bhp through a manual gearbox, and it has precisely zero modern driver aids to tame that boost-heavy slug of power. Just over 1300 were built between 1987 and 1992, and the typical going rate for one in 2025 is quickly approaching around £2 million.
Land Rover Defender

It’s not just snarling supercars in Lando’s collection. He also owns a classic Land Rover Defender, overhauled by restomod firm Retro Automotive. An open-top, short-wheelbase Defender 90, it’s been restored from the ground up, with a totally retrimmed interior featuring some modern tech.
Powering it is a fully rebuilt 3.9-litre Rover V8, while it sits on adjustable air suspension. Retro Automotive doesn’t list the price of its conversions, but something comfortably into six figures is likely.
Fiat 500 Jolly (sold)

The Defender is thought to be Norris’ car of choice for pootling around the streets of Monaco and the French Riviera. Previously, this job was done by something even more relaxed: a Fiat 500 Jolly. A version of the original 500 designed for trundling around Italian coastal towns, it features no doors, a cloth roof and wicker seats.
Norris’ wasn’t one of the 650-odd originals, but an evocation built later on. It was still powered by the original 500’s humble 499cc inline-two engine, which would have pushed out a mighty 17bhp (although apparently Norris’ was modified to some extent). He sold it through an online auction in 2023, where it fetched £32,000.
