any F1 at Gumball start ?

Hello all !

I go to London this WE with my girlfriend to visit and see the Gumball start. Any chance to see a McLaren like last saturday ?

I think it is impossible to see a F1 engaged in the rally but it is possible an owner come to see the start with his McLaren, what do you think about it ?

If anyone have an idea to see a F1 in London (in the street or in a garage or in a parking), please share with us. thanks.

Bye
Phil

PS : If you see a black S2000 with french plate, it's me !

Hey Phil, good luck with spotting an F1. If you do happen to see one, be sure to take some pics. On second thought, take pics even if you don't see an F1. I'm sure there will be some amazing cars participating in the Gumball.

Also, I'm glad to see you are still around. It seems as though you haven't posted in a while.

Hi Phil,

If you are in London this saturday, try these two McLaren dealers.

http://www.taylorandcrawley.com/

and

http://www.carsinternational.com/

If they are still on their premises, both have a longtail GTR each, 24R and 27R

taylor and crawley, may have with 24R, a silver road F1. They are located in a small side street, 5-10 minutes walk from park lane. NO 32 Wilton Row is a mews garage (look for plain black doors) There is also a nice pub at the end of wilton row, called the Grenadier.

Best to phone first to avoid disappointment

I hope this info answers your request, have a good time in London.

Hello !

MalkaJB > Thanks for your last sentence ;) I did not post since a longtime but I still passioned, it doesn't change. I see no f1 this year :(
I'm happy also all F1 nuts are still here !

Le Man > Thanks very much. I doubt to have the time to search these garages. I sent a mail today to David Clark remember him I spoke with him one minute in Paris http://carpics.free.fr/F1_GTR_06R/F1_GTR_06R.html
and asking to visit the garage but no answer.

See you soon
Phil

Hi Phil,

Give both dealers a call, They are both very friendly. If they are open, I,m sure they will let you view,

It is probably, the only sure way to see an F1

Hello Le Man,

thanks again. I will try another time, It is short to me to visit these garages.

Phil

There seem's to be 5 SLR's in the race but nothing about a F1 though you never know.

Hello,

very nice grid with F40, F50, Enzo, 275, Dino, MC12, Carrera GT, etc...
Three SLR have alternator problems and McLaren send mechanical team in Asia to fix it !
