How cool would this be!

** This car is a gaming machine / racing simulator **

Originally purchased for approximately $40,000 by Vodafone and imported to New Zealand circa 2004 for its sponsorship leverage of F1 Grand Prix. The simulator has had a re-brand from Ferrari to Mercedes Mclaren in recent years and has regularly been moved around the country for events and roadshows.

The simulator is a real driving experience and comes with a built in computer. The tyres are actual racing slicks, and the racing seat is similar in size to an actual car, so would be a tight fit for a very large person.
It is nearly 10 years old and has been moved around a lot so it isn’t in perfect condition. However it has only been moved and stored by one trusted and reliable supplier who has always used blankets, and it has been well cared for.

The foot pedals will need a new driver box and it no longer has the monitor (flat screen TV) shown in one of the pictures. The new owner will also need to have the simulator re-calibrated.

This would be an amazing statement piece for any F1 racing fan. Could be used in your home garage or in a business showroom.

Measurements : 2.2 metres wide and 4.5 metres long.

Proudly donated by Vodafone New Zealand.
