There i was lying in that semi awake state after waking up from a night duty when i heard a very nice throbbing outside.... sounded like a new GTR on tickover.... Ill have a look

To my suprise a fully road registered Mclaren MP4-12C!!!!!!

They were doing a driver swap in a little residential carpark outside my house. I ran around like a headless chicken for a few minutes trying to find my phone or a camera. If i was a bit quicker i could have got outside and taken some proper pics of it.

The driver said they were testing out a new gearbox and it was one of the final prototypes.

O M G!!!!



Ill tell you something for nothing, this beauty sounds like an absolute beast!!!

Good spot! It's almost primeval how petrolheads have that "ooohhh that's nice, what's making that noise? must go and have a look." Thing about us.

It's funny your rushed, and no disrespect intended amateur shot to my mind is the best looking photo I have seen of the car so far, I actually want one based on that and haven't thus far.

The washed out colours did nothing for me but the aggressive orange with the wheels looks excellent.
