Purple looks amazing but no so sure on the overall flip effect.
Probably too much for my tiny brain to compute.
Might be a bit marmite but if you like it and its a long termer thats all that matters.
Definitely an eye catcher not that a McLaren 720S really needs anymore look at me as they have so much presence
Personally i love yellow ones but thats another bold and brave colour choice

Are you sure you aren’t Rambo Lambo? You have a very similar writing style. LOL

Omg not another one. Clearly this Lambo guy really has got in a lot of you guys heads
I'm getting bit fed up of this similarity thing now, its all very tedious and hardly relevant
Off to play on ferrari.chat at least I am well know and respected there

IIRC, he was banned by PH. Something to do with a racist remark.

I think the Union Jack plate is great, a bit of fun that means something to you. Super cars ARE meant to be fun, that’s the whole point.

The work itself looks incredible quality, very impressive.

I hope you love it and enjoy it.

FYI, people have jumped on your posts because of the incredible gauche and boorish comments you make about your wealth and businesses.

I don’t see much resemblance to be honest William. He was on another level of taking the bait and confrontation.

Maybe some people need a target and as RL isn’t around....?!! :-)

Why do I feel as though i won't be surprised if a napier green 675LTS with all the carbon, wing ducts, the correct wheels and mileage all of a sudden turns up in your garage after being offered by a pistonheader that seen your post looking for that exact spec and decided to sell?

That would be fantastic.

That would be nice !

As I have had a pm asking for my phone number do you think it is a scam ???
I'm inclined not to reply but he has said he has a friend with a car for me so I'm a little intrigued to find out more.
My son is convinced its a scammer and my other PH supercar friends have warned me to be wary.
I've been looking for over 6 months behind the scenes and made lots of contacts to no avail and then suddenly I get a PM 1 day later ???
Mmmmmm I suspect a rat, what do you think ?

Really ? All I've said is I have 3 supercars and own a confectionery factory. Not really mentioned my main source of income or other assets but taking on board your comments I will leave out details of my apparent wealth and try and tone my opinions down a bit.
I am still a newbie to PH.
I don't get this play school bullying on ferrari.chat, club scuderia or lamborghini talk though.
PH is very strange place and thought it would help me with search for a McLaren as you cant join MOC until you actually own one.
Ok i have friends within MOC who are asking on my behalf but I can't be bothering them all the time and rather do the donkey work myself.
It was supposed to be half the fun afterall

The difference between PH and the other dedicated clubs/forums is that PH is a free-for-all so you will get a lot of negativity from a minority of people who simply visit the PH Supercar forum to bait. I wouldn’t be too bothered about it as the Moderators will ultimately weed them out. The McLaren forum was very toxic last year but it has settled down now since the Mods gave it some focus. It’s one of the reasons why the MOC UK have a strict joining criteria of proving ownership (V5) and fee payment of £50.00 to become a member - there is zero trolling/baiting. If you do purchase a McLaren and join the MOC, the nature of ownership is that the demographics are generally managers and business owners so you won’t encounter the grief you have on here, although I suspect you will earn the title ‘Willy Wonka’.

LOL, I'm pretty sure "Willy Wonka" is my nickname by the staff. It certainly is amongst my mates and something I just have to live with

Hmmm... that comment is really patronising imo. I.e. a better class of person owns Mc’s. I.e. managers and business owners. Don’t worry we won’t let any of the plebs/non-owners in our club and we can just back slap each owner on our perfect choice of car. The fact that anybody can contribute and comment on Pistonheads is a great positive in my eyes. As always these days, too many people seem to take offence far too easily.

Patronising to who? I didn’t at all suggest better class of person. Maybe different mindset and attitudes, but not different class. The irony in your final sentence.
