Mclaren F1 Kit????

I am looking for a McLaren F1 in resin or plastic, but I have yet to find one. I would like for it to be full detail, engine/interior/etc. Does anyone know of a company that makes one?
Thanks,
-Tim

IIRC Profil24 made a full detail F1 in resin, but it's the GTR-LM version.
The only F1 kits out there are all resin and all GTR-LM's, they're also predominantly curbside kits.

Studio27 has just re-released their F1 kits of the longtail variant but you can expect to pay upwards of $100 for one.

Check out http://www.scaleracecars.com or http://www.islandcollectibles.com for them, I have seen them on both sites.
Also check out http://www.surfcitymodelcars.com

I'm currently looking for this kit too.

My research tell me Profil24 kit have engine, while other don't, but might need more cleaning than Studio27

http://www.islandcollectibles.net have it for 105$

here's mine from profil24 there french
nice clean body but will need a lot of work
to make in mint

If you want full detail (and I mean full!) and you don't mind 1:43 check out Renaissance Models Super Integral kit. It builds out from the monochoque just like the real thing, and having seen the finished item in the flesh it's quite unreal. Ca't find any picture at the moment, but it's available from www.grandprixmodels.co.uk

Picture of Renaissance can be found here:

it sad I don't like 1/43

Btw, there is a guy on ebay (with very good feedback) that have currently both Profil24 McLaren kit for sell.

Seach for modelcarguy it's currently 87.50$Us

Modelcarguy is Surf City Model's ebay name.

Really ? good to know

I would buy from him, but shipping for canada is just a bit too high
btw I don't see McLaren on his website

There were also 1/24th kits from Studio27 and I think, Modeler's from Japan, which should be very good... I think they're not available anymore from the manufacturers.

The french kit from Profil24 should be widely available, though....

I will wait again, i'm ready to pay 100$ for it, but not more, so shipping is too high :(

The Amazing 43 pic VRic posted is the standard 'open' kit, which I have in my to build set. They also do an even more detailed short tail with full engine and underbody detail, with full lift off pannels, removable wheels etc. I'll see if I can find pic for those that are interested.

this 1/43 one is more expensive than 1/24 LOL
180$ for a 1/43... overkill ? :D

Thats the one. Amazing kit, builds like the Tamiya Enzo, only in 1:43. I've considered doning one, but I find Resaicensse quality a bit patchy.
