old story

[cabrio92]

Hello,

I don't know if it was evoked on this forum. someone on the forum of a french auto show called Turbo spoke about his :

he says he sat in a F1 at a petol station opening in England in 90's. He was very young and remember the owner was a F1 driver and there was also a 94' Williams.

so, do you know which f1 was there and if pics are available ?

Thanks
Phil

have you got the link to the forum, i have never heard of this, and can't think who it could be - unless he is thinking of Paul Stewart?....

Ok. Well I'm not the guy on the forum referred to but this is a fact:-

In a petrol station on the Brighton Road (Croydon, South London) there was an F1 GTR on display in the 1990's. I am 95% certain it was either a FINA car or a Gulf car (I think Gulf) . It was there for a short while-I always used to stop and stare at it through the window when I lived in the UK. I am afraid I cannot be certain whether it was a FINA or Gulf car due to the passage of time and I do NOT have any photos of it. However I know my Mclarens very well and this is a true story. I hope this clue points you in the right direction.

Hello,

thank you for these answers.

In fact, it was just to help this person to remember because he was very young. I don't know him but I would believe him.
For Paul Stewart, I am not sure he owned one at this time ?
