Unfortunately the comments section doesn't appear to get it...

[Dr Doofenshmirtz]

Oh god - not Angus Nairn. What a muppet he is.

Is there some sort of national press championships where points are awarded for stories furthest removed from the truth?

As far as i can tell the real story is more like:

Borrowed McLaren has some police stickers put on for a display at the NEC.

Pretty sure the car will just be on loan for mutual publicity gains.

Steve From Winchester: yet another bit of evidence of how dumb the people who run the police are....

No Steve, another bit of evidence of how dumb Daily Mail readers are that they don't even read an article before posting an idiotic comment about it.

It has been mocked up and lent to the police for the autosport show by McLaren....

After the show it'll go back, have the stickers taken off and go back into the showroom - all a big PR exercise

[Contigo]

Average Fiesta is 100bhp , 6 x 100 = 600 so it is that far out or am I missing something?

[J4CKO]

A lot of those who comment in the Daily Mails comment section need rounding up, a dangerous compobantion of clueless, self righteous, money obsessed, opinionated, devoid of humour, devoid of compassion and mean sprited.
