    McLaren Reveal 5 Special Senna GTR LMs To Celebrate 1995 Le Mans 24 Hours

    The manufacturer from Woking has revealed five special Senna GTR LM models to celebrate the five McLaren F1 GTRs that dominated the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans.

    As you can see below, all examples have been given their own unique paint scheme thanks to McLaren Special Operations and each has been designed to mimic the look of the F1 GTRs that finished in 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 13th at the 1995 race.

    Each car took a minimum of 800 hours to paint and to make things more difficult they had to ask for special permission from companies such as Gulf and Harrods, as well as Le Mans organizer the Automobile Club de l’Ouest (ACO) to create various logos and trademarks. The only piece of vinyl on the exterior is a recreated scrutineering sticker on the roof of each car.

    McLaren Senna GTR LM 825/1 is a homage to the McLaren F1/01R which we have come to know as the ‘Ueno Clinic’ car. This is the McLaren that won the race and the theme looks outright wicked on the Senna GTR LM.

    The Senna GTR LM 825/6 is the ‘Harrods’ car which was driven by Andy Wallace, Derek Bell and Justin Bell. They actually could have won the race but experienced a transmission issue and had to limp home in 3rd.

    Senna GTR LM 825/2 known as the ‘Gulf’ car is a homage to McLaren F1/02R which managed to finish fourth. Some orange OZ Racing Wheels and Ayrton Senna signature on the rear quarter of the bodywork makes this one unique Senna.

    Senna GTR LM 825/7 pays homage to McLaren F1/07R which is known as the Jacardi car sports a royal blue livery and logos from the French oil company, Elf who sponsored that years race.

    Last is the Senna GTR LM 825/5 which is a homage to McLaren F1/05R that came in 13th. This Senna took the longest to paint out of the whole lot as it needed extensive airbrushing to include pole position lap times and various Le Mans branding cues.

    These special creations are busy being delivered to its owners in Europe, UK and the United States.

    • The Audi RS3 is one of two ultimate ‘mega hatches’, and probably the best of the breed. Its astonishing pace and theatrical engine combine with huge grip and more of a driver focus than previous generations. It’s also a brilliant daily.

Are you parting with R1.3m (or more) for one? Let us know in the comments below.

    • Menacing Frozen Brooklyn Grey Metallic BMW M4 CSL sold by @bmwbryanston spotted in Linksfield recently by @thomasovitale 😎

Just 15 of these came into the country priced at R3.57m.

Would you prefer this or the freshly revealed M3 CS?

    • The BMW i4 M50 is quite possibly the best EV we have had the pleasure of testing.

It's superbly comfortable but at the simple touch of a button, it switches from tourer to tornado and you find yourself instantly doing speeds you should not be doing.

While not all EVs will have the same refinement or scintillating performance, this was both relaxing and thrilling to drive.

The Gran Coupé is a handsome car with a sense of sleek length and disguises its hatchback as a booted saloon rear end and that M Portimao Blue metallic paint certainly garnered a lot of positive attention.

Compared with the BMW iX it’s less of a show-stopper, but comes with a much more attractive price tag – and while the i4 is still quite the financial investment (R1,6m) we feel it gives you excellent value in return.

Yes, we did have a few charging issues (Eskom) and if you don't have a Wallbox charger at home filling up with petrol is MUCH easier. However, that being said if you’re looking for an outstanding driving experience both on the twisties and on the highway, this is definitely worth considering if you have decided to make the jump to the electric car.

    • The totally bonkers Ferrari 812 Competizione was spotted in Bryanston today by Brad Ainge.

It actually makes the F12tdf look quite tame in comparison. Which would you rather have?

Priced around R14m depending on spec.

    • Our time has come to an end with the most potent version of Mzansi’s favourite bakkie, the new Toyota Hilux GR-Sport.

The 2.8-litre turbo diesel powerplant has been tweaked to push out 165kW and 550 Nm thanks to an updated ECU which also responsible for the much needed revised mapping of the six-speed auto.

The sporty Hilux gets new monotube shocks as well as stiffer coil springs which make the bakkie a lot more settled at higher speed and provide great feedback on some of the twisty bits. If you don’t have a full load at the back however, you might find it a tad too stiff and rather twitchy for day to day driving. 

Inside you get a load of sporty touches including “carbon fibre” trim pieces but the highlight has to be the race inspired front seats complete with Alcantara inserts and some GR badging on the headrests. 

For the Hilux customers, this is a welcome addition to the range as the exterior and interior aesthetics align very neatly with the GR brand.

Yours from R891,400. Are you picking this or the Legend RS?
