Yellow McLaren

[a5678]

I was browsing through a book called "A century of car design" and I came across a section on Peter Stevens, and there was one picture of a yellow F1 roadcar. So I scanned it just in case, and I am wondering if it is an old photo, or something new. It looks familiar, but I didn't have the patience to go through my collection of McLaren pictures (in other words I'm lazy ), so I thought I'd ask. The fourth picture in the gallery is the one I composed of the three scans.
Here is the imagestation gallery:

Kind of an old photo, but it's not very common. http://www.genesisautosales.com/Drea...Laren%20F1.jpg

Actually, they seem to be different pictures, but only slightly. They were probably taken on the same day. Although I gotta say, they are taken at slightly different angles, and the car's wheels are turned in one of the pics.

hes right, but its only slightly different. i wish we had more pix of the sultan of brunei cars

[Mr. Bernoulli]

But its not the Sultan of Brunei's car, unless he had 2 yellow F1s.

hu? i assumed this was the car that went to the Brunei and like so many other cars was released and sold through taylor and crawley to the US.

[Mr. Bernoulli]

Nah, his yellow F1 had his monogram in the wheel nuts instead of the M and also just to the side of the locks. I think the yellow was slightly paler too.

i'd say mr bernoulli is right, take a photo of the T&C car and put it next to this one, the difference is obvious

[mini magic]

i always thought there was a difference but i guess i misunderstood.

thanks for clearing that up
