I popped out towards Godalming from Cranleigh and spotted an amazing sight.....

Not one but FOUR white McLaren MP4-12c coming towards me.

I'm sure it was the Stig driving number 3, certainly a guy in white overalls, or a white suit of some sort.

On my way back 30 mins later, another one followed me for some miles before I turned off up the A281. I did half expect it to turn off towards Dunsfold Aerodrome but it didn't, carried on its way south.

Amazing!

What a sight...Love the Mclaren.....Such a great car.......OK some say its boring compared to the Ferrara but not me....I think it will age better than the Ferrari with all ots overstyled detail....

I passed the white company demo car 1MCL just outside Knutsford last Friday. I still don't like them nor, I'm sad to say, the 458. FWIW, I still think the P1 looks horrible; from the Jokers face at the front, through the unhealed wound on the side to the Halfords/ Barry boy rear wing. Truly f*cking awful. P1 is apparently a typo, it should be P1G.

Love it..P1 is fresh..the Ferrari looks like it should be in Thunderbirds no where near as lovely as an Enzo and anothe overstyled Ferrari...............As soon as I clapped on eye the P1 in Paris last year it's styling pilled me in...Love it.......

Fresh? It looks like badly repaired crash damage. What is going on at the back? Most of it seems to be missing and that rear wing....UGH. If you Google 'Barryboys' you will appreciate just how many of their styling excesses have carried across to the P1. Sorry Andy, we'll have to agree to disagree.
