Lovely car. The wheels on these are so much better than the earlier road cars.

I think you meant this wiki link though

100% agree - that's just beautiful

Thanks Dinny.

The 5th gear review of the orange F1 LM with Tiff is seered into my memory The Enzo may as well be a brown Marina as far as I'm concerned, no comparison

There’s a reason that every McLaren driver signing is photographed here, but it a big name or their youngest driver development programme.

Pretty sure I saw that F1 stranded on the hard shoulder of the M1 near Sheffield years ago.

You can keep your Bugattis and Paganis, the F1 is still the pinnacle for me.

I remember that. Awful outcome for the Corvette, but IMHO just a very unfortunate coming together in busy busy traffic.

That car list is missing all of his important cars, like his 205, Clio, Renault 5 turbo, Integrale, M3...
