Never heard of a car being described as constipated and really struggling to work out what on earth you mean in terms of the cars design

Apart from the BMW i8 which looks like its trying to sh*t out a Porsche Cayman

Spotted on a golf course in Carmel.. Mr Stroll's stunner. Jackie Stewart brought in to give it a few revs.

pink troosered big fellah looks like he's struggling to fit in there.

Was one of the best cars in my Top Trumps pack however!

Ha, that was exactly my thought when I saw that post as well.

That's Ferrari P4 chassis #0856 and probably the best one. It was very successful when new in 1967: 1st 1000km Monza, 2nd Daytona 24 hours, 3rd Le Mans 24 hours.

It was owned for 20 years by David Clarke, of Graypaul Ferrari, Loughborough fame. It became so valuable that I believe he thought the money could be better used elsewhere, so he sold it in 1988 and donated the proceeds of the sale to a local children's charity (hospice I think).

More history details here:

Excuse my ignorance, but is that the Glickenhaus one mentioned on another thread which REALLY kicked off?

Don't mention the war!!!

But no, that thread is about chassis 0846. The car above came 2nd in the 1967 Daytona 24hr where as chassis 0846 won it. However it was then destroyed at Le Mans soon after whilst being driven by Chris Amon.... Or was it!?

Saw this in Esher on Sunday. Didn't get a photo as driving so had to google this one.
Thought it belonged to a fairground owner until I googled it.

Seen it quite a lot of times now, but it's the same as the smily face on some of the Paganis - once seen it never will be forgotten.

Love the 'Le mans' suitcase boxes on these, a wonderfully French rule.
