Some interesting points raised through this video.



Chassis 039 supposedly in Mexico with no keys...



The F1 LM carrying the same plate and VIN as 039...




So is the most famous LM a rep of the real thing made my Mr Clarke after he somehow imported the lost 039 F1 from Mexico?

Whats the summary of the Video?
039 was built for Ron Dennis, his wife didn't like it. He took number 050 in Silver.

It sat for a year before been registered.

Owned in the UK a short while then exported to Mexico via the US.

Lots of photo's and a video of it in Mexico.

Owner in a drug cartel gets killed..

Keys lost, Mexicans contact McLaren wanting new keys in 2005. McLaren ask for $300,000 for a key (half of the cars value at the time).


LM 06R road registered in 2005 with the VIN and Number plate of the mexican 039 car.

Mexican 039 car has never been found.
