Nick Mason’s $70 Million Car Collection Will Blow Your Mind!

Nick Mason, the legendary drummer of Pink Floyd, is as passionate about cars as he is about music. His remarkable collection boasts icons like the Ferrari 250 GTO and Porsche 962, and he’s not just a collector—he’s a dedicated racer, competing in prestigious events like the Goodwood Revival and Le Mans Classic.

With his garage valued at over $70 million—surpassing even his music career earnings—Mason’s love for cars merges history, engineering, and speed. And he's not alone; fellow UK musician James Hetfield also has an extraordinary car collection. Let’s take a closer look at the legendary machines in Mason’s garage and dive into his exhilarating automotive journey.

16. 1957 Maserati 250F

The 1957 Maserati 250F owned by Nick Mason was the brand’s racecar, made in Italy. Sleek and aerodynamic like a rocket, this machine's performance was on full display during the Grand Prix races of the 1950s.  The Maserati 250F was driven by legendary racecar drivers like Stirling Moss and Juan Manuel Fangio between 1954 and 1960.

Though one of the more affordable cars on our list, this machine earned the title of "the world’s greatest racing car" in 2009. Renowned for its lightweight design and race-winning potential, the Maserati 250F holds a legendary place in motorsport. Mason's model is one of just 26 ever built by Maserati in Italy. In an interview, he called it "the archetypal Grand Prix car," underscoring its iconic status and timeless appeal in the world of racing.

15. Ferrari FF

Nick Mason’s collection includes the Ferrari FF, a practical yet powerful shooting brake with a 650+ horses under the massive hood . Rumored to own two, this sleek, dark blue Ferrari blends performance and versatility, often appearing black in certain light. Certainly a collector's delight, considering the interior space reserved for four enthusiasts.

"I've always had a passion for cars designed with racing in mind," Nick remarks, his gaze lingering on a Ferrari FF that's become part of his collection for the day, proudly displaying its impressive JBL Professional sound system.  He further added, "My idea of in-car entertainment's a racing helmet and a set of Nomex underwear."

14. 1901 Panhard B1 5-liter

The 1901 Panhard, the oldest car in Nick Mason’s collection, still holds significant value today. While it may not compete with modern cars, it’s more than capable of taking Nick and his friends on a 54-mile journey. Every November, Mason drives this classic along the historic Veteran Car Run from London to Brighton.

Nick has a soft corner for this classic car and stated, "The great thing about the Panhard's 5-litre engine is that the car can tackle a steep hill even when loaded to the gunwales with friends, family and mechanics." As for the car itself, it was made by the French company Panhard, which no longer exists, while its coachwork was done at Roi-Des-Belges.

13. Ferrari SF90 Stradale

Nick Mason’s garage boasts three modern Ferraris, and the standout among them is the stunning SF90 Stradale, draped in a rich Tour de France blue. What’s intriguing is that all of Mason’s contemporary Ferraris share this striking blue hue, giving his collection a signature look that’s as unique as it is eye-catching.

Though Nick Mason hasn’t been seen driving or flaunting it publicly, there's no doubt he owns one. This car serves as a powerful reminder of the incredible strides the automotive industry has made, seamlessly blending top-tier performance with eco-friendly technology. It's a true testament to the future of driving.

12. 1953 Ferrari 250MM

In 2011, Nick Mason added the iconic 1953 Ferrari 250MM to his collection, a car now worth a fortune. Originally competing in the legendary Carrera Panamericana race, it eventually retired, only to be lovingly restored three times by passionate enthusiasts to reclaim its former glory. Today, this red Ferrari stands as a shining example of automotive history and craftsmanship.

Following its restoration, the 250MM became a star at vintage car shows, where it caught Nick Mason’s eye. He swiftly acquired the coupe, which had been meticulously restored to preserve all its original components and powertrain in flawless condition. A closer look reveals a unique touch—a Spanish sponsorship on its nose reading "no hay dos" ("nothing better"), and we couldn’t agree more. This Ferrari truly stands out as one of a kind.

11. Ferrari LaFerrari 

One of the rare 499 Ferrari LaFerraris resides in Nick Mason's collection, and true to form, it’s finished in a unique Blue Pozi color, perfectly complementing his other Ferraris. This LaFerrari is particularly special, having sold out before it was even officially unveiled, making it an exclusive gem in Mason’s prestigious garage.

Nick loves taking the wheel of his LaFerrari, but he's just as happy being a passenger. After all, few cars deliver the same level of adrenaline to those riding along, and we’d be more than thrilled to grab a seat in it anytime. The thrill of this machine is undeniable, whether driving or riding.

10. Porsche 962

Nick Mason bought a Porsche 962, as a successor to the highly successful Porsche 956, which won multiple endurance races, including the 24 Hours of Le Mans. He bought the car in 1990 and went straight to Richard Lloyd to race it at Le Mans.

In endurance racing, the 962 was very successful, taking the 24 Hours of Le Mans championship six times between 1986 and 1994. The vehicle also won numerous championships in various racing competitions, including the American IMSA GT Championship.

9. 1927 Bugatti Type 35B

The 1927 Bugatti Type 35B owned by Nick Mason, was among the most successful racecars made by Bugatti in the 1920s, with over 2,000 race wins to its credit between 1924 and 1930. Nick Mason acquired his Bugatti Type 35B in the 1970s, restoring it to its former glory and racing it through the next decade. 

The Type 35 originally came with a 2.0-liter six-cylinder engine, which was later improvised and introduced as a supercharged 2.2-liter six-cylinder engine in the Type 35B owned by Mason. Like many of his classic cars, this stunning blue Type 35B is a familiar sight at prestigious events, including the Goodwood Revival, where it continues to turn heads and showcase its racing heritage.

8. Ferrari F40

Nick Mason is the proud owner of a rare Ferrari F40, one of just 19 models that were upgraded to the Michelotto LM specification. This exclusive package boosted the car’s power to a staggering 720 horsepower, enhanced its suspension for superior handling, and introduced aerodynamic improvements, making it a true track-ready masterpiece.

Mason’s F40 stands out with its striking, one-of-a-kind livery, featuring a bold red and yellow Union Jack emblazoned across the bonnet and sides. Adding a personal touch, the number plate “F40 NPF” pays homage to both Nick and his iconic band, Pink Floyd. 

7. 1935 Aston Martin Ulster

Today, Aston Martin is synonymous with James Bond and its sleek Valkyrie and Valhalla models. But long before, it was the 1935 Aston Martin Ulster, owned by Nick Mason, that helped cement the brand’s legendary status. Of the 21 Ulsters made between 1934 and 1936, just seven were factory-backed LM racers. 

Nick owns two, while his daughter Chloe has a third. The Mason family has proudly possessed the keys to chassis numbers LM17, LM18, and LM2 since 1973. The  two-seater roadster promised several victories to the brand at prestigious race events like the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the Mille Miglia.

6. 1970 Ferrari 512 S

The red-colored 1970 Ferrari 512 S sporting race livery owned by Nick Mason is one of the 25 specimens made by Ferrari. The racecar was built as a project undertaken by Enzo Ferrari himself after he sold 50% of his company to Fiat in 1969. The 512 S was made to take part in the World Sports Car Championship in the 5-liter class.

Nick Mason’s Ferrari 512 S, chassis number 1026, has a rich racing history, having competed in the Le Mans 24 Hours as one of eleven 512 Berlinettas with the long-tailed Coda Lunga bodywork. After a crash during filming, it was sold, restored by Bob Houghton, and later purchased by Mason, adding another iconic piece to his collection.

5. 1955 Jaguar D-Type

The 1955 Jaguar D-Type marked a turning point for the British marque, building on the success of the C-type. With its aerodynamic design and powerful engine, the D-Type dominated the 24 Hours of Le Mans, securing three consecutive wins for Jaguar and solidifying its legacy in racing history.

With such an incredible feat under its belt, it was no wonder Nick Mason got one of the 54 cars made for the public by Jaguar back then. Mason once described it as "one of the most beautiful sports racing cars ever built," and we couldn't agree more. 

4. 1959 Maserati Tipo 61 Birdcage

Nick Mason’s 1959 Maserati Tipo 61 Birdcage, the last of just six built, started its journey in North America before making its way to the UK. Following the success of the factory-run 250F Grand Prix car, also owned by Mason, Maserati, facing financial struggles, shifted focus to sports cars it could sell to private teams.

The Tipo 60’s robust chassis impressed Maserati’s factory driver, Stirling Moss, who suggested boosting its power, leading to the creation of the Tipo 61 by Carrozzeria Campana. Nick Mason once owned a Tipo 60, with which he won a Formula One support race at Silverstone in 1993. It is one of his most favorable racing memories. 

3. 1972 Ferrari Daytona Competizione

Nick Mason owns a 1972 Daytona Competizione, the racing variant of the Daytona 365 GTB/4. Built by Ferrari’s Scuderia division, it was one of the most successful Daytona models, securing class wins at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the 24 Hours of Daytona.

Jodie Kidd got the chance to get behind the wheel of this stunning machine, even featuring it on her YouTube channel. Nick Mason's striking yellow version, with its quad exhausts, stood out like no other—causing our hearts to skip a beat.

2. 1996 McLaren F1 GTR

The 1996 McLaren F1 GTR was the most technologically advanced supercar of the 20th century. The F1 GTR was the track version of the McLaren F1 and was made of carbon fiber. Bearing a chassis number 10R, this one was actually a press car for the company and appeared at the 1996 24 hours of Le Mans. 

McLaren sold the car to Nick Mason, who had it made street-legal by Lanzante. With the plate K40 MCL, it’s regularly driven. After a crash at the 2017 Goodwood Members' Meeting, it was repaired and made a comeback at the 2022 Goodwood Festival of Speed.

1. 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO

The 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO in red, owned by Nick Mason, is the most expensive car in his collection, Holy Molly! It's worth half of Nick's entire car collection. And with only 36 units made all by hand, none of the 250 GTOs are similar to each other, making them even more unique. 

Mason once felt "stupid" for spending $350,000 on his Ferrari 250 GTO, but with its value now exceeding $70 million—each car is considered a work of art by the Italian government—he still drives it regularly. Today, it’s valued at over $100 million.
