McLaren F1 GTR Chassis Number 016R For Sale
Hi there,
In this months Motorsport magazine there is an advertisment for a McLaren F1 GTR that is currently for sale. The description reads :- McLaren F1 GTR Chassis No 016R 1996 Bigazzi works team car run by BMW Motorsport in Fina and BMW colours, Raced by Piquet, Soper, Laffite, and Duez. Silverstone 4th & Pole, Le Mans 11th. The car has now been homologated and licensed to run on the road, but maintained externally & internally as a race car. Rare opportunity to acquire one of only 4 race F1 GTR's able to be used on the road. Enquiries to Ray Bellm (Phone and E-mail details are in the advert, but I don't want to post them here, e-mail me if you want them). I beleive that Ray Bellm has raced a few McLarens in his time, I certainly remember seeing him race the Gulf McLaren in the mid nineties. There are a couple of pictures of the car and I will see if I can scan them in later. Regards Tim Dunlop Mad4Models

New to the market, GTR 96 chassis 16R was run by Bigazzi at Le Mans and Silverstone and, now road-legal, is priced competitively at £695,000. It's being sold by none other than 1996's BPR GT Champion driver, Ray Bellm.

This car was featured on a british TV program called Dream Machines on Five a few months ago. It was driven by Ray Bellm while the presenter followed in Bellm's original GT40. It was white and had some BMW livery on it, although i doubt the livery was original. Looked pretty good.

Re: McLaren F1 GTR Chassis Number 016R For Sale
I have a 1:43 model of it. I think it's a shame most of the decals were taken off, I think it looks much better with them on, and doesn't it bring down the value of it if you alter its appearence?

Turns out Ray Bellm is to become the new chairman of the British Racing Drivers Club. Hope he does aswell as Martin Brundle.
What i'm having trouble understanding however is why he selling it in the first place. He's a successful businessman, loves cars and has a great car collection. There are only 4 of these in the world. If i had one, i'd hold on to it.
