nah man u wern't tired, i just went and checked the now, his mclaren was the 23rd made that was originally brittish racing green, but he got it re-painted to silver and his interior got changed from normal black to black and red sweade.

can't tell what type of mclaren it is though, usually the normal mclaren doesn't have the spoiler but liams does but the interior doesn't state anything about it being LM but that could be just because his interior change but also theres 3 seats in the normal mclaren, theres only one in the LM which makes things more confusing, he could have got them fitted or he just got the spoiler fitted.

LM means Le-mans by the way :P its a lower top speed than the normal mclaren but it has a whole lot more aceleration and handling

Top Speed: 246 Mph Which means now its the second fastest production car ever made, the bugatti veyron is 255 mph, the mclaren was just way ahead of its time and lets just say one of the seat belt straps were one of your fat of the land albums you purchased back in the days, so liam should be thankful :lol:

heres some pics of it from piston heads:

I remember reading about the spoiler being fitted on there somewhere. :oops: It's definately an extra, so thinking on the lines he went for the standard McLaren F1 but got some of the LM extras.

2 of my most favourite things in life: Prodigy, Cars. :-D

:-D :-D yeah i think its true he went for the normal mclaren, theres also not a LM badge were there should be on the back :P

i think liam was actually pretty smart with buying it then, it may have been heavier but with that LM spoiler he would have loads more downforce meaning the handling and aceleration would be alot better and he'd have the better top speed too.

what a smart man at times :lol:

yes i did have the downforce package on it.i think it was the right side of tastefull without being ott. the real reason is simple. the car moves around alot over 165 and i didnt like that.the f40 i had previously was stuck to the floor all the way to 200.once id driven my newly uprated car i personally think that the car should have been built with more downforce on. it just inspired more confidence driving .maybe rear wing would be too much for some but the front looks better with the splitter on.function over styling really


Quote:
took a year to think about buyin an f1 but didnt take long about colour. its understated but the car says it all. the factory know the car inside out so putting it back together is easy for them.knowone in there right mind would go any where else .its £900,000 .00 worth of motor for s sake

This 'Master H' on yahoo doesn't appear to be Liam after all as the guy says he lives in Australia and talks about the cost of getting car parts to Australia.

Liam Howlett should go on Top Gear! It would be brilliant because he could actually have a chat about cars with Jeremy Clarkson about cars unlike most celebs who don't know anything about cars.
