Afternoon all,

I thought it about time to post something on here to clarify for you all what is going on in Park Lane. I have to say I have been watching the posts and pictures with great excitement.

We are slowly bringing the showroom in Park Lane to an opening date in the first week in April and are currently in the final negotiations of securing two or three super high end low production main dealer franchises.

Speculation has been that Mr. Pagani has been to open the showroom already, this is not the case he has been over only for some lunch and further talks.

Apologies, I thought Mr. Pagani had been over for the opening, rather than further talks. It would make sense, as the day he was over there wasn't much happening when I passed by. All the best with everything, and cheers for letting us know about what's happening.

Would that be a London based McLaren franchise?

I don't think so - that used to be further down near the BMW showroom... Did anyone see the Red F1 that used to be in there?

The old McLaren showroom was the one that is now BMW "Tax Free Sales" I think.

Google Street View agrees: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&a...

Haha whoops! I Google'd and saw it was 61 Park Lane (http://www.allinlondon.co.uk/directory/1068/29690.php), but mis-read the door sign on Street View and got the wrong place!

Went with a camera on Friday. The place has no names or branding and is apparently due to open soon. There were:

3 Zondas,
1 Koenigsegg
1 Murcielago
1 XBow
1 Spyker
1 Merc SL65 AMG black

Enjoy!

It has a Bob Forstner banner above the main window, and the business cards in the side window of course.

I too went by on Friday, but the only new video I made was of the KTM X-Bow, the Spyker and SL Black were too far from sight:

Proud to say the white Zonda F was owned from new until its current location by a guy 5 mins away from me. Its sad to see it go to London with all the rest of the supercars. I hope it finds a good home, unlike his previous Zonda.

That's a PHers 'egg as well.

Looks great - regularly drive past the showroom. Best of luck with the venture!
