Just cycled around the corner and took a back road not normally seen. Passed by a truck with GT car in back and a name I thought I knew. Lanzante Motorsport. I think I may well be cycling back around there. Mclaren GTR F1 cnversions and inhouse dyno and engine bench. lickhttp://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~lanzan/index.htm


Prob should have stopped he bike when I took this!

I think that's the same place - they used to do the SWB pick-up Range Rovers in this style...

Peugeot just auctioned one of there 905's, wonder if that's it's new home?

Many years ago while getting my car a new mot at LMC just outside Bordon they were also putting an mot on a Mclaren (which failed). It was from Lazante.
