The spotter seems to think it could be an LM. This car ^^ was entered in the Gumball 3000.

This is a list of the colours of the LM cars, so I assume it could be one of these:

XP LM Prototype, Historic Orange, McLaren promotional car
LM1 Black
LM2 Historic Orange
LM3 Historic Orange
LM4 Black
LM5 Historic Orange

This seems to be a model of this exact car and it claims to be a 'McLaren F1 GTR Goodwood'


This site says its 'des Mclaren F1 GTR Long Tail de route'


Hope that helps. I have no clue who owns it!

It's not an LM, just a GTR race car converted by the factory for road use and painted in Papaya Orange.

The other orange car is a short tail F1 race car also converted. It has never been on a Gumball as far as I know, though you could ask the owner as he's on here (not flemke, the other F1 owner).

The F1 that was on the Gumball was indeed an F1 LM.

Thought Flemke was the only PH who had an F1. You mean there are two of them ? Whose the other then (& please dont say NickTheBassist either).

M700 Is awesome, what a car, Will Mr B be attending any race events this year? British GT, LMS?

I think a show at Oulton Park on the 24th March, to out do the guy that arrives annually in the Veyron!
