Out and about at the weekend and spotted this gem near Banchory.

I was going to find out some specs on it for my son who is a car nut, but no matter what combination I tried I couldn't find it based on the car reg.



Can someone tell me what model it is. As the title says, first time I have seen one of these up close.

Judging by the registration, I'd say that's a 675LT

laugh Which bit of the reg gives you a hint to 675LT? Try looking at the 650S bit of the reg smile As someone else has said, one for the bad plates thread because that's MC06 SOS.

A hint of sarcasm I believe?

Tried on DVLA and ASKMID, ziltch, not to worry it brightened up my day, and a number of cars to to check out based on your answers guys. Pity I didn't take a pic of the back, might have been some clues there.

Interestingly from reading other threads it would appear that DVLA have no idea what McLaren's are? Loads of owners having something random on their log book.

I once had a Caterham Supersport that was described as a "Caterham Superseven" on the logbook.

I believe they're called houses. I think normally only very rich Mc Laren owners can afford to get one of those as most have to live in the Mc Laren after spending all their money on it

Pic taken at Drum Garden centre near Banchory, just run of the mill houses, view from the road.



Not relevant to the thread, but apparently Banchory has the highest ratio of 4 x 4's per head in the country, and at least one McLaren
