Silver F1 sale- Taylor and Crawley

I've seen this F1 mentioned around the forums (but not sure which one it is exactly), so no news there. However, when you view the information on the F1 at http://www.taylorandcrawley.com/

It says:
McLaren F1 Road Car

--> Choice of two <--

Anyone know anything about this?




Bob

Re: Silver F1 sale- Taylor and Crawley

Yes. Taylor and Crawley is owned by David Clark, the guy who was in charge of selling all the Macs when they were new so i think they keep the silver car on their site to attract people to the site, then David will get in touch with them and help them out. He knows every car personally, and so he knows which ones are "for sale". I say "For Sale" because almost anything can be bought for the right amount of $$$

Possibly #36, and possibly the car photographed in the well known shot with the Red F1.

Technically, F1s are LHD as the shifter is to the right of the driver. It could also be referring to which side the reverse light/rear fog is situated, as that differs in LHD -vs- RHD countries.

I wanna see pics of this light blue F1.

they now also list a longtail GTR!

I mailed them if it is possible to make an appointment to view and picture the cars.

I'd go especially from Holland to London for these 2!!!
