Mclaren P1 Spotted

[MikeE]

Again

What looked like a production ready (62 plate) grey P1 on the A3 heading back to Woking. In the last 6 months I've seen yellow and black ones in Woking and now this one, they must surely be production ready by now given how many undisguised examples they're running around in??

Pleased to say this one sounded pretty load at 70mph

FYI.. Lamborghini built 50 Aventadors before any production cars

APOLO1 or PELETON25 will probably be along to correct me but I think the first few have been delivered

[Berlinetta]

Absoutely have began deliveries. I have a yellow one in my storage garage in W8...

First UK customer one was also yellow iirc

I too have seen a couple in the Woking area (not surprisingly, I guess). They sound superb! Not seen one properly yet as I'm always going the other way and its usually dark!

Was over there at the same time, JC was driving it (isn't he meant to dislike Belgium and their roads). There were loads of people chasing it and taking photos, I was just one of many.

It looked and sounded absolutely awesome, as did the yellow 12C that was with it, although it was a little unnerving when they drove it into the car park on its electric motor and reversed it into the parking space, a car like that isnt meant to be silent.

And a couple more

Saw the yellow P1 southbound on the A3 today. Shame I saw going northbound...

[Mr Gearchange]

I saw a dark one coming north on the M20 last Saturday

It is one of the Experimental Prototypes. The same one that jackal spotted.

Correct, you can see the 'XP7' sticker on the side, right in front of the rear wheel. It is the same prototype that was doing the heat testing across North America.

Knew someone would know the answer. I first saw what xp it was, then forgot because I was too excited for seeing one on the road!
