More Mclaren Pics

why do you think that you can do 200mph safely sir?

did u see the car I was driving?

no

(looks at picture)...does that car do under 200mph?

now u see my point

 

Sorry to bump an old thread, but Alex...can you repost those Mclaren F1 pics for us?

 

+1...

It was really late last night and so I started looking up some threads that Alex had posted in the past. I saw the title with "Mclaren F1" to it and I was drawn to it. Unfortunately the pics are long gone. I really hope Alex can re-post them for us who didnt see them.

 

ditto

 

If he dont see this thread..send him a PM

 

I can´t see the photo!

 

Dear Comrades,

How can this be a motor car of high integrity when it is reliant upon another manufacturers engine?

With kind regards,

Did you drive it ? If yes, how do you compare it with the F50 ?

 

By writing a whole new chapter in the history of supercars, that's how.

 

Dear Comrade kovachian,

Oh really. But they didn't appear to be too successful - a sort of one horse wonder perhaps?

With kind regards,

'Cause it's a bad mofo, Comrade. Around the time the chaps were slapping these together, same team was doling out a dose of high integrity upon their competitors in F1 - with a like mis-match of chassis/engine. The F1 itself came around and showed the rest who was boss in competiton, also. May also be the last nanny'd-up supercar. This car could be the Royale (w/out cheese)/250 Goat of it's era. Count me among those who'd suffer the inequities.

The Cobra served up some integrity in its day w/successfully integrated unrelated components, as well.

Perhaps cool stuff is simply parameter resistant?

 

thanks alex

 

The Mclaren F1 IS the greatest supercar of ALL TIME in my opinion.

Thank you very much for the pictures Alex. It's not very often that we see pics of the Mclaren F1 in a more "normal" enviroment.

Interesting thread....was fascinated to see the car orginated in S Africa, I suspect it subsequently did return to SA and I beleive I know who it belongs to.....the owner has a few other exotics and really enjoys his cars....Initials P.M....then again I might be wrong...great pics.

For those interested to know guy I think who owns this car also owned a road legal Pontiac Firebird that hit 387 km/h in 1989 on the road in S Africa....

 

Although I posted in this thread back when it first started, I still don't recall you having a McLaren, Alex. Congratulations.

Any Enzo yet...?

 

I dont think Alex owned a Mclaren F1. It was a friends of his that he has driven.

 

It "didn't appear to be too successful"? Please elaborate on that one. How does being the overall winner at LeMans as well as winning the BPR championship still require something additional to be successful? Well, if you want more, it did win the JGTC. What has the 512TR won?

Thanks for the pics Alex.

 

You should buy it from him

 

Not yet... But as soon as I know something, I'll let you you know... But, seeing as how I don't actually know the guy, I doubt I'll be the first to know.
