Greg - another couple of comparisons to the former Paul Stewart #023 are that this one in the RL article has the flared front wheel arches and wears the GTR-style 18" OZ wheels instead of the road car wheels.

The silver road car with the flares and normal headlights in this shot, however, is a third car we have yet to determine anything about:



I believe the other shots we have of it are in this thread:

And then there were three - Silver F1s with the HDF Kit...

Sorry Phil - not sure which piece of the puzzle you are referring to when you asked that question.

It looks like another signature, possible Creighton Browns. Check out TVRFreaks pics for a clearer picture.

Just speculation at this point - nothing more or less unfortunately.

This is XP5's highspeed run in Ehra Lessien / Germany (AUTOCAR 22. April 1998):



And here another interesting Gordon Murray article from the same Autocar issue:

Re: The truly great scan thread started by Sauc3

Here is the programme from the 1996 Melbourne F1 Grand Prix, signed by a few well known drivers / people connected to Motorsport [Jack Brabham etc]




Inside it mentions a gathering in what they call the 'Exotic Marques Display' where an F1 was apparently going to reside. I wonder if it was this one -


Can anyone find anything about this display?
