Nice blue one - think it was a prototype, as the mirrors were halfway up the door-frames. Sounded nice too. N reg. First one I've ever seen!

When I used to live in Kenilworth, a few years ago, I spotted XP4, (experimental prototype 4) a few times, think it was older than N reg though.

That was me popping to the shop to get some milk

Where abouts in Historic Warwick was the Mclaren F1 spotted

Duck_Pond

It was coming down the hill, on the A425 (?), past that big stone archway, headed towards the river.

I'm sure it was an N plate, though my eye-sight isn't that good without my specs... chinnybloke was also there - though knowing him, he'll claim it was a kit car...

I thought it was a remote control thing how low it was! Maybe it was Brooklyn Beckham testing out his new 1/2 million quid childrens toy.

Blue is a poor choice all the same. Silver ones are loads nicer IMHO.

Tiff,

You know that was me! Don't lie boy! LOL

I know of one Macca that is local, but it's silver. XP4 I think was on an MCL numberplate, as it used to be based at Sytner in Warwick for air conditioning testing way back in 1995.

Duck-Pond/Chinnybloke,

If you read this, we must meet up this week sometime for an M5 gathering!

Cheers
Matt

Hi Matt,

I'll still up for a meet. Duck Pond is a Scooby man through and through so we can invite him and then throw him in the river by Warwick castle after a good kicking. :-)

I'm in the tractor today (TDi Audi) as the M5 is in to have the clutch tested. It is not buggered after all though....just my cr*p driving apparently. As if??? :-)

Aye, I'm lacking in the M5 department. My DGM Classic is still my pride and joy though... I'm up for a meeting, at a pub of course.

ChinnyBloke can then show us his fine clutch skills... I seem to recall he had a problem on a track day with the clutch in a Maserati 3200GT, bright yellow, which he stalled in front of us all...

As I took to the wheel first, I believe I was demonstrating how to go from looking very cool to looking a complete t*t. Therefore, saving the rest of you from such p*ss taking.

the chosen one

saw one passing through southampton quite a while ago, think it was during the gumball 3000 when they were just passing through to get to romsey, quite a few other nice cars followed along with it.

Chinnybloke,

Next week is fine. Will mail you, and arrange to meet in Warwick.

Cheers
Matt
