All that said though, its chassis is actually the repaired chassis that was originally fitted to GTR #27R, and when they were swapped to allow delivery of #27R to Parabolica Motorsport after it had been damaged, each one was renumbered in the process.
I also found an alternate source of information that refers to this incident and it specifically says that 27R was 'damaged in shakedown'. That doesn't mean 'crashed', but it also doesn't exactly sound like a transporting accident either. 
Le Man - do you recall anymore details on this?

Only what,s on the more detailed GTR race history chart that I shared with you
. We did cover this somewhile back, but I could not locate the thread when I did a quick search.
The main criteria is how well the repairs were caried out. after looking very closely at several repaired F1,s. McLaren do an excellent job, as you would expect from such a company. This info should not detract anything from the cars value, in the same way as its lack of race results should either.
