Your memorabilia is too impressive :)

I can't imagine time, research and money to have all this stuff.

Thanks Phil. The answers to your questions are too much, far too much and way too much

;)

Many thanks for the invite Greg, at the rate I,m going it will be around Xmas, just in time for a mince pie and a very nice cup of tea :cheers:

McLaren also did a reprint of the Autocar road test issue in a white folder with pin badge. I gave both copies away as a little present to a very good friend :thumbsup:

:wave:

Bought a few more press packs recently...although the AM Racing one is still hiding itself from the Google algorithms

Some other bits of memorabilia I thought were cool so I bought them recently were -

A sticker off the roof of a GULF Mclaren GTR from Le Mans 1996

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v245/hurstg01/KGrHqNHJDcFBtwD8b1BQmW3DL960_12.jpg

and I've looked at these for ages, and finally plumped for 2 of differing face-values

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v245/hurstg01/KGrHqJHJBoE8fEVeWCBPOR8D7f60_12.jpg

oh and I also relented [aka caved in]and bought some of these for Thomas

the box are stunning, how much and where is it findable ?

These are quite old Phil - I think most of them were originally candy tins. They pop up on Ebay from time to time. Sometimes a bunch all at once, other times you can go a while without seeing any.

yup, Thomas wants one for a pencil case for school :) Coolest kid in class :cool:

Have added a rather special Mclaren F1 Press Pack. It's on page 146 of Driving Ambition, bottom right hand corner. It's a Press Pack given out to people who were invited to attend the Monaco launch, and contains Press photos, Slides, lots of info on Mclaren headed paper, an A4 folder and a pass to get in to the F1 Launch itself :)

I hadn't seen one for sale before, and when the price was closer to what I was willing to pay I gave in and bought it :)

I have a few more things coming over the next few weeks, so I'll pop them up here as and when....... :)

where do you run across these items?? now that im not liquidating my collection anymore, im interested in building it... Ebay (USA) doesnt seem to have many good items with any consistency...

Mostly eBay, but sometimes through word of mouth as others know of my collection and when they hear / see of anything going they'll contact me. I have people on all continents emailing me with stuff they find for sale - some of it catches my eye and I buy it, other times its a duplication of what I already have and other times its run-of-the-mill stuff that you can find on eBay every day - sometimes this is a good thing as it may be selling offline for a lot less than what can be found on eBay, which helps fund the rarer objects I / others stumble across :)

Greg,

It's nice that it's still got the official entry ticket (visiting card) shown in the last photo: they're even rarer than the kit.

I haven't forgot about the AM Presskit.

I'll try and photo it tomorrow and email the shots to you for hosting.

I also found a black Logica Presskit, from the Gulf BPR team at the Brands Hatch round that I'll photo too.

Are these two eluding your collection too perhaps ?

Regards

Yes, the AM racing is still missing and is avoiding all the Google algorithms at the moment - the Logica press kit is a new one on me, so it seems I am farther away from my end-goal than I thought.....

Hi there,
i just want to share my experiences which i made during a private preview for the Mclaren P1 at the end of december. It was incredibel to get this chance but unfortunately there was only the car which was shown in Paris. I was told the production car will be launched in Geneva and maybe 1 week before to some costumers at the factory. During my preview i got the first and really amazing P1 Mclaren brochure. It´s a masterpiece and i am not sure if i should sell or keep it. I was told that only invited VIPS got it during this special preview so it might be very rare.
Look at the pics. If you are interested just PM me or maybe i will sell it on ebay but not sure.

Haven't seen one of those yet - some here might cringe to hear me say this, but your best potential for profit is most certainly going to be through Ebay. There are lots of brochure collectors in the world who pay top dollar for stuff like that.

I have also bought, off another seller, some of the 1996 GULF Press kits. They have the same covers, but I got the Nogaro Press Kit,

From the same seller I was fortunate to get some more press pack press photos and cards that can be found inside the Press packs , that weren't inside all the ones I bought, to make them more complete.

Now, about the AM Racing press pack.........

Hi
I got so many offers that i thought it might be a good idea to sell it on eBay

Cool - I hope for your sake it sells for an unreasonable amount. ;)

I am in with a bid that will surely be exceeded.

Owners manual on Ebay.co.uk

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/McLaren-F1-Owners-Handbook-/261151865126?pt=UK_Car_Parts_Vehicles_Automobila_E T&hash=item3ccddd3926

Owner answers a question to reveal:

"Hello Yes, I have two steering wheels for sale plus press kits and other mementos. Will do a list over the next week. I am also putting two other items on this week: one is a very rare book signed by David Price and David Clark (I have never seen another one for sale) and the other is a photo album from a professional photographer containing 139 photographs from 1995 to 1998 of all McLaren racing GTRs. Not sure about the brochure- what do you mean by 'DA'? Regards Alan "

I wonder how much those steering wheels will go for???

Anyone here in touch with the seller?

Interested to see the photo album. :cool:

I think I have purchased some stuff from him in the past as I recognize the account name, but it would have been several years ago.

Greg - did you buy this too? :eek: :D

I saw that, but what a price! :eek:

and no, I didn't buy it :)

Talk about someone with some forward thinking - saving every one of those items together. I was impressed!

>8^)
ER

I could possibly bundle most of those bits together from what I currently have, but what a price!!

Just bought this, probably the coolest model I have since I am such a big fan of both the F1 and GT5:

Is the scale 1/12 or biger?

Their photos don't seem to do it justice. It is a thing of beauty!

Looks defenitely nice! Now just find it good open place in your home. :smokin:

SSSShhhh, don't tell the wife but I've been buying again ;)

This time its more GULF GTR items - some photos, literature, info sheets, note book and 13 different editions of 'On Track' that was issued by the GULF press office before the races during 1995 :). I have some multiples of the below :)

Nice! Quite rare stuff! :smokin:
DId it cost....much? :crying:

Nice! Quite rare stuff! :smokin:

It depends on your definition of 'much'.... ;)

Some of the new items will go to bolster some of my GULF GTR 1995, 1996 and 1997 Press packs, others are just nice to keep for the future

OK. :smokin: Very historic stuff.:smokin:

looking good Sami!

Hi,

I just bought a little press kit from BMW AG about FINA GTR 96' for 10€ :)

http://www.leboncoin.fr/collection/438019759.htm?ca=12_s

Between seeing the ad and buying it, it was 1.5 hour only :)

the seller has some incredible stuff !

Phil

That's a VERY good price

I've got 2, and paid a total of 10x for both :yikes:

I think too Greg,

also, I miss his ad for a Gulf press kit at 20€, I don't know how I miss it :(

I just want to share my very nice VIP P1 Invitation for the world debut at the geneva motorshow. My friend still purchased one of the first cars and send a deposit to Mclaren that´s why i also got this amazing invitation. I will try to take some pics and for sure i can pay this set when i will be back
Thanks

Very cool - thanks for sharing. :)

>8^)
ER

I have 3 special items in transit that I will share when I get them, however I have bought this recently, a 1995 Jacadi Press Pack :)

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v245/hurstg01/Jacadi1995_zpsf1ae4634.jpg

Interesting! Is there included any good big good quality image of #07R during BPR or Le Mans race weekends?? :lol2:

Hi Sami

No, no big pictures of #07R. It is all text apart from the front cover, and has text on the BPR series, the GTR, the sponsors and the drivers.

It's good as I had never seen one before nor heard of one. It looks a bit basic but does the job :)

OK. Thanks, these Jadaci-things are quite rare allways I think, so good to have one Greg! :lol2:

My other items turned up today :)

1st off, 2 LCC Rocket pins. Erik peaked my interest in this when he got his nearly 2 years ago (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=6908608&postcount=239), and I was fortunate enough to stumble across 2, both different colours :)
