This 2022 Apollo Intensa Emozione will cross the block at Bonhams’ Quail Auction on 15 August, and despite needing a new interior and “mechanical recommissioning”, it is expected to fetch somewhere between £1.9m and £2.6m. Good grief.

Of course, the winning bidder will be getting quite a lot of car for their money. A whole lot of carbon too, because the IE gets a carbon tub underneath its ludicrously angry slashed carbon bodywork. Brembo carbon ceramic brakes, too. This particular car is apparently known as ‘Ocean Dragon’ thanks to its colour-shifting blue/green exposed carbon finish. Won’t be to everyone’s taste, but at least this car looked better than the Gumpert Apollo that came before it.

First shown to the world back in 2017, the IE came with a 6.3-litre naturally aspirated V12 built by Autotecnica Motori and a six-speed sequential gearbox from Hewland. With 780bhp on tap and a dry weight of 1,250kg, it’s perhaps no surprise that its 0-62mph time was quoted as 2.7 seconds with a top speed of 217mph. And yes, we’d think it was vapourware too if we weren’t staring directly at one of the 10 cars that Apollo did actually build.

Worth remembering that final assembly was done by our old friends at HWA, of course.

Bonhams tells us the Ocean Dragon has just 340 miles on the clock from new, but its current owner only bought it a year ago and for some reason removed the interior and part of the fuel system. It’s now described as “an opportunity for the new owner to have an interior ordered to suit his or her tastes and preferences”, although there are a load of parts included with the sale.

So, reckon an Intense Emotion is now worth upwards of £2m?
