A few years ago (well, at least 8 actually) Ray Bellm converted his F1 racer (in which he was FIA GT Champion) to semi-road spec. By that I mean that it could be legally driven on the road, not that it was a road car.
The article (it was in Autosport) went on to say how Bellm would be using the car for corporate days for the higher-end clientele. AFAIK, nothing came of it, and I think Bellm just got too busy (he was grande fromage at the BRDC until Jackie Stewart ousted him) to carry on with the project.
Again, as far as I could tell from the article, the car was going to be run by Lanzante Motorsport, who are definitely still operating. They might be a good port of call in the first instance. I know they have prepped a number of other McLaren's.
Alternatively, you could join the long line of PH'ers who provide e-fellatio to Flemke, in the misguided hope that one day he'll magically appear at your front door and hand the keys over... (No offence if you're reading this, Flemke, but you must get tired of all the adulation from middle-aged men. 18-year-old models, OTOH...)

I tried to email him earlier, but he blocks them!
I'll get my (cheap) coat.

"e-fellatio" - that's going in the book.

What's particularly amusing here is that having pointed out what is essentially an unoffensive truism, you apply a bit oif lip-stick yourself there at the end in case flemke got offended. I agree with you, btw. The F1 thread reads like a Take That fanmail page. Not that I don't revere the F1, or think that flemke is a patient guy (and undoubtedly nicer than any of the Take That fellahs) to answer all the queries the way he does.
Now look. I've done it, too.

No, it's got to be the McLaren.

Does anyone know if there is a company in the UK who provide a McLaren F1 experience? A passenger experience would do, it's for my brother and it would make his decade.
Fairly sure there isn't such a thing available unfortunately
You could try your luck speaking to the company but since they've mothballed XP5 what little chance there was of this sort of thing has effectively vanished.
Loving the comments re the Flemke thread. If he ever has a brown trousers moment in the F1 there will always be plenty of people to clean up.

I'll think you'll find that this is the car that Mr Bridger now owns. I would not bother sending him a pm though as I think he'll tell us all to bu**er off
