"THE SENNA MADE IT": Multi-millionaire has McLaren craned up to Melbourne’s most expensive penthouse

 

Multi-millionaire Adrian Portelli has had his McLaren Senna GTR craned 57 storeys off the ground and into the most expensive penthouse in Melbourne.

The 34-year-old bought the $39 million penthouse in April, and announced his plans to use a crane to lift his luxury sports car into the penthouse so that he can display it in the living room.

“It’s a car that we can’t register, and it’s just collecting dust, so I might as well have it somewhere where it’s safe,” he told 7NEWS last month.

On Wednesday a crowd had gathered to watch Portelli’s dreams come true.

The multi-millionaire took to Instagram to share his success.

“THE SENNA MADE IT! A first look at the McLaren Senna GTR 57 floors up 🔥” he captioned the post.

“A huge thank you to everyone involved for making this absolutely surreal moment happen,” he added, tagging the construction and investment companies who helped him achieve this.

“Forever grateful.”

He shared a follow up post with a series of images from the move and how proud he was to be able to achieve his dream.

“When I went to bed last night I just giggled. Young Portelli would be proud. The one nobody knew 10 years ago,” he captioned the post.

“If I can motivate and inspire people to want to succeed, my job is done because I understand how hard and lonely it is on the pursuit of success,” he added.

Portelli has said that he plans to use his Melbourne penthouse as a weekend getaway, and admitted that he had looked at a few other penthouses during his property search, but unfortunately they didn’t have “that ‘wow’ factor”.

The penthouse is located atop the Sapphire by the Gardens tower in the Melbourne CBD, and was set to break records for the most expensive penthouse back in March.
