Mclaren F1

Ive only seen one MaClaren F1 on the road, or should I say around a tree, apart from the one I was a very nervous passenger in. I have sat in a couple in a Jaguar Showroom near my home but never allowed to bomb along the road. My friends dad is the head salesman at the GRange dealership and took me and him out for a spin in it and feel I should share some of my thoughts and experiences on it. Firstly, they dont make them anymore. If you want one, be prepared for a secondhand car. Expect to pay the wrong side of half a million for it too. Often fetching £650,000 for one car!
