Waouh Erik !

Thank you to clarify these points I love this type of discussion but my english is not as good to continue this discussion in details. You don't want to use msn messenger

I am glad you remember it's Philippe who took #059 pics because some persons forget the origin of some cool pics.

There is a quick clip of the colour (Creighton Brown) of #039 in build, on McLarens the "Pursuit to perfection" video/dvd. Also what appears to be GTR 09R in primer as well!! Followed by a silver chassis. (Pos #042)

I hope this of help, in your quest to find pics of all F1,s Greg.

Cheers Le Man - my next question would be - does anyone have a link to the video/dvd as mentioned by Le Man, and if so can they do screen shots of the above? (Go on, its nearly Christmas.....)

I was looking back through my files tonight and decided I would check out to whether this F1 was still registered in the UK -

that we have as chassis #017, the 16th car finished.
The DVLA state -
The vehicle details for M970 GGP are:
Date of Liability 01 02 2000
Date of First Registration 29 09 1994
Year of Manufacture 1994
Cylinder Capacity (cc) 6064CC
CO2 Emissions Not Available
Fuel Type Petrol
Export Marker Not Applicable
Vehicle Status Unlicensed
Vehicle Colour RED

So it's unlicensed at the moment, which I can only imagine to mean either it's had a number plate change (to a personal plate) or is stashed away by one of those 'investment buyers' we all love

Does anyone have any other info? like other pictures, recent sightings etc?

017 (the burgundy car) was written off and it didn't wear just that plate

So Dawes obliterated this car yet owned #071?

[Peloton25]

I think we have finally determined that Dawes had no connection to #071 afterall. I got that info ages ago through someone on SC.net who claimed that the guy pictured in DA with #071 was Dawes. I have since seen images of Mr Dawes and the two men didn't even look similar.

Good enough for me, I've now re-named the file for the future. Cheers.

Here you go Greg, A late Xmas present. I hope they are of some help.

I may be wrong on this, but here goes!!

The road car the technician is bolting the floor panel to is probably #039 (Creighton Brown) looks a strange shade of brown with a strong tint of violet. This is followed by a GTR, pos 09R. If this was 08R, the road car preceding it, would be pale blue metallic #036. Also it should have a blue alcantara dash fitted to it.(I can get more info on this!!) It is certainly not 06R or 07R as they went through their build in race colours, which I have on dvd. This is then followed by what looks like a silver road car #042, which has a light coloured headlining fitted to it(?). The GTR has a build no the top of the car, pos 026 or 036, McLaren must of had a strange internal build number sequence, as I also have a pic of 071 in silver?? well out of sequence in build.(Eurosport factory visit,96)


Pos....#039+09R.........#039...................... ...#039.......................


Pos....09R+#042.........09R+#042.................. 09R.........................

Also some unique pics of 01R. Pre LeMan 95, Silverstone test in its sinister looking graphite/grey colours with no graphics.

Deleated duplicated post!!

[hurstg01]

....and a Merry Christmas to you too Le Man!!!

The pics of #01R are fan-bloody-tastic - it looks so mean without the graphics

Re the build pics: Can you do me a favour - it may be the mulled wine - can you put the chassis #'s in order as they appear in the pictures left to right 1st row then the same for the 2nd row? Just so it stops any confusion on my part.

Dawes never took delivery of his F1....
