...so while we were going down the street we passed an ordinary garage which door was a bit open, while talking I took a look inside the garage and there they were. I couldn't believe my eyes and so could Dimi. Although he lives in London he has never seen them. So I took a quick pic, although it was risky because we were in a rich neighbourhood with securities everywhere. Later on Dimi told me that he has heard of this guy, he used to be a McLaren Engineer. When he stopped working, McLaren themselves gave him the yellow GTR as a present, afterwards he bought the orange McLaren himself.

The garage with those two GTRs belongs to David Clark, the former Marketing and Sales Director for McLaren Cars. The dealership Chris refers to would be Taylor & Crawley.

I'm not sure the part of the story about him being given #06R is true, as it wasn't owned by the factory.

As for the current state of ownership on #16R, the question would obviously be best answered by mr bridger. Quite recently he posted here to say he still had it. Whether that means it is still for sale - I am not sure.

I love how the spoiler on the Harrods car is being used to store things!

I mentioned to "someone" about how I didn't like the new McLaren MP4-12C but would buy 16R is I had the money. He said I was too late.

He knew about the Lark car so he's clearly well connected.

Very strange

I've had a PM from a guy from the ELMS collection, who stated he wished he had the money for #16R, but to do so he would have to sell his current personal collection of cars to justify it.

The car is almost sold, and he intends to go for the 'normal' version one day

jayfive · #42 10-08-2009, 12:54 PM

He's not done badly if he has sold it in a few weeks, took DK 6 months to sell it
