Great shot! Mine is in that photo!

Following my recent tour to McLaren with Steve and the response to my comment that I bought my 650s since seeing your 12C when we met at Le Mans Classic (I had the 16M at the time and was in a Morgan Aero 8) then seeing 'your' car awaiting delivery; I'm guessing your going to be taking the GTR to 'many race tracks'??

Congratulations anyway wether I'm right or wrong

has mso produced any rhd p1's?

Not to my knowledge, and I have 370 cars (with some duplicates, no doubt). That said, the most substantial stuff has come towards the end. I think a RHD P1 would piss some owners off a lot.

If you are into rumours, there's one RHD car in Singapore, and a car which isn't a P1 (but which looks like one) running about with a V10 in the back and no hybrid gubbins.

That may be a good rumour, but there are no RHD P1s (at least, none that came from McLaren).

I heard a rumour of one running about with all the electric bits off and it being absolutely crackers.
Anyone shed any light on that?
I also heard about the RHD one too though so idk.

We recently parted with our McLaren P1. Article detailing the reasons is posted on if anyone is interested.

Deemed as advertising.

Thanks for the update, seems like sound reasoning - spectacular looking cars - amaze me every time I see them

Edit: congrats on the RS (it is also on my list as an alternative to the CGT, which sits at the top of my dream a garage - I hope you are right and prices come down a little to make buying one more feasible eventually ....)

Thanks on the RS.

On the P1, as they age, think the battery will become an increasing issue.

Would that also apply to the 918 and the La Ferrari?
