Stirling Moss's Porsche RS61 Speed Demon Up for Auction

Behind the Wheel of a £2M Piece of Motorsport History

In the world of motorsport, Stirling Craufurd Moss is somewhat of a legend. The British driver’s career began in 1948, and over the following 12 years he won more than 200 races—although crucially never the Formula 1 World Championship.

That history can have a monetary value, according to James Knight, motoring director of Bonhams. The auction house is putting up for sale a 1961 Porsche RS61 formerly owned by Moss, with a high estimate of 2 million pounds ($3.1 million).
