A classic Formula 1 car raced by British track legend Graham Hill has emerged for sale with a whopping £1million price tag.
Enigmatic driver Hill was reigning F1 world champion when he took delivery of the Lotus 49B in 1968.
The car's predecessor, the Lotus 49, had set a new benchmark for performance and handling when it was unveiled the previous year.
Hill raced the motor in the Tasman Championship in early 1969, notching up two second places and finishing fourth in the Australian Grand Prix in Brisbane.
