It's because of that that some garages have started to charge for air & water. :D

Chris, does your friend with the 675 prefer it to the P1, which slightly disappointed him?


He thinks it's probably what the P1 should have been. His main gripe with the P1 is that it's too wide; the 675 is also wider than it needs to be.
As you will know from posts in another place, he thinks he will sell the P1 as he believes that McLaren went back on their promise on build numbers.

Not so: it's quite surprising how little room you need for an overtake. :shock:

Incidentally, the colour of the car is a dark blue, although in the pics it looks black.
It's a colour he created himself when he wanted to change (for the second time) the colour of his F1.
McLaren have been asked to use the colour on another customer's car; they refused, since it's not "their" colour to use.
