McLaren event at the British Motor Museum today
Discussion
Yup - can just see my car in the photo.
I've been driving past the place on the way to & from work every week for years ........... "must go there sometime".
Well, today was the day - worth a visit I'd say.
The key word in the name is "British" - lots of British Leyland stuff, but also "movie" cars, prototypes, "first" and "last" of production runs all in some very high spec and expensive looking buildings filled with knowledgeable and helpful staff.
Ps - That square steering wheel on the allegro ...... what WERE they thinking ?!
