In my FB news feed its all over the place...why is it relevant again? lol Not that its a bad pic or ugly car...kinda random

 

 

 

Are my eyes deceiving me, or is there another F1 in the background? The wheels and interior appears to be different. Also, is the SPS, or something, in HK?

 

After some more digging. It could be this car

McLaren F1 by R-W-P (Rupert in HK), on Flickr

Which appears to currently be for sale in SPS 1997 McLaren F1 for sale: Anamera

The car in the background is probably this one. Erik - where are you when I need you?

 

Does anyone know when the pic was taken of the black car, was it recent?

 

The silver car in the foreground is chassis #065. The other F1 in the background was rightly spotted as #018, the Dark Silver car with the High Downforce Kit. That photo was taken several years ago (2007, my guess) at Automobile Manufactur/Auto Kulture showroom in Changi, Singapore where #065 spent about 4 years displayed. Later #065 was actioned in London in October 2008 and #018 has since moved on to a collector in New Zealand.

SPS would have probably been selling #063 in that recent ad. I think the car in your photo with the Porsche was #064 which also spent time in Hong Kong but has since moved on to a new owner back in Europe as of about 1 year ago.

That photo of #007 was taken on November 29, 2011
