UK market Flatnose 930's had little white sidelights in the indicator unit. This one may be a replica (it has the wrong wheels and is registered an '83 "A" - 3 years before the 930 SE was available in the UK although it could of course, be a private plate). You could actually order a standard 930 Turbo with the flatnose wings at a significant cost, but that would have come with the sidelights too.
The blue one below sold in '17 for £254k.
254,000 pounds? Wow!The blue one below sold in '17 for £254k.
I actually papped that car in London in 2008. Actually recall the driver stopping in the road so I could take the snap.

It's the pre production car for the McLaren Edition SLR, which is a McLaren owned car.
if it was registered in 2004 how could it be pre-production?a McLaren edition 6/7 years later.

According to Wikipedia the McLaren edition was from 2011 to 2013 ,so assume it was a normal car then modified to become
a McLaren edition 6/7 years later.
It has been modified later, but he posted it was pre-production, but it is registered in 2004, the SLR came out in 2003 so just wondered how that works?a McLaren edition 6/7 years later.

It was first registered in October 1983.Sadly no photos as trying to keep my car facing the right way as well, but say black and blu Bugatti Veyron 54L on the M1 near Rotherham on Saturday afternoon in the driving rain.
The driver was definitely taking care not to aquaplane off as even i was able to overtake it and my car has track focused tyres!

Yep, Silver Cloud III Flying Spur Mulliner Park Ward. Not sure how many were convertibles but I think the hardtop coupe is more common, they also built some in Bentley S3 form, Alan Wicker had one...
And a Piper hidden in the background.Edited by P5BNij on Saturday 27th July 19:52

Stunning purple McLaren 675LT (P11 OOV) on the M74 in the Scottish Borders today.
Owned by a racing driver, but presumably nothing to do with the McLaren P1 'OOV' press car?
Will have been driving home from Spa. Unrelated to the press car plate AFAIK! Very nice car, some good options on it & it gets used! Owned by a racing driver, but presumably nothing to do with the McLaren P1 'OOV' press car?
