McLaren sighting!

From a closed list I am a member of...this happened yesterday
--------------------
driving into work about 8.00 on the m20 comming into london just off the M25 and coming the other way 2 x maclarens (one in the gulf colours) and a sagaris I wonder what they were doing probably doing a shoot for evo and are heading for the chunnel tunnel.

I wanted to turn the car around and chase them but i was late for work.

made my day

Cool pictures, thanks. We already knew that XP3 was alive, right? Was there any doubt? Wasn't it confirmed a while ago that GM had it?

Re: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And Xp3 Lives!!!!!!!!

Also, anyone know what event this was? Looks like there were some other nice cars there as well. I am also very sure the location is in Paris. It reminds me of the courtyard of some museum or some public place. I can't make out anything except the word "2006" on the sticker/plackard/thingamajig.

Re: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And Xp3 Lives!!!!!!!!

Sure enough, there's the TVR Sagaris on the right in one of the shots...Mod, can we merge the two threads?

Actually, it looks like the sticker/plackard/thingamajigs say "2005 ALFRED DUNHILL."

Hello,

I am happy and unhappy

I know Track and call him when a friend "OC" announce me there were 3 F1 and TVR Sagaris on Place Vendome in Paris where Ritz hotel is located.
I was at 400 km of Paris at a track for a special event with Ferrari GTO, SWB, P4, F40, F40 GTE, Enzo, F50, Porsche 962C, Ferrari F1 x4, Tyrell F1 and many others ! I made the return fast with my S2k with 2 Stradale and I arrive too late Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I only follow the two trucks which contain F1s and saw nothing.

I am happy that Track made these incredible pics of a unique event !

Ciao
Phil

What was the event? I am sure it was more than just come and park your nice cars at Place Vendome.

Well there is such a thing as the "Alfred Dunhill Classic", but I'm fairly certain that is a golfing event.

Previous runnings of the Supercar Rally have started at that same location.

Looks like Gordon keeps XP3 immaculate - glad to see it still has the prototype markings.

Nice, now why did they need trucks? Surely all the cars could have been driven?
