Aston Martin DBR1 racer could set world record for most expensive British car ever sold

One of the most important Aston Martins ever created, a 1956 Aston Martin DBR1, is coming up for auction for an astronomical sum that could put it in the record books as the most expensive British car ever sold.

Expected to fetch more than £15 million at auction, this particular DBR1 isn't just incredibly rare but also comes with stacks of racing pedigree and is steeped in heritage.
