I'm well aware what the 'PP' indicates - they are actually the third round of prototypes that McLaren has built. It started with XP's (Experimental Prototypes) that were fairly crude and raw. These were mostly the flat black or black/white zebra striped cars. Then they built a series of about 2 dozen VP's (Validation Prototypes) to help finalize the production process and give them their earliest versions of complete 12Cs. Then they moved on to the final versions, designated PP's (Production Prototypes) which are cars that are nearly exact in spec and construction to the actual customer cars. All XPs, VPs and PPs will eventually be scheduled to head for the crusher which is a shame, but what I was really implying with my comment was that I wanted a 12C in that color, not necessarily that exact 12C.

Right, right...
Grown men rolling around on the ground together, locking arms and grunting over an oddly shaped ball is definitely far more important than what we're doing here.
All clear now gents. Thanks!

As for "vtgts300kw" (pfft, VT?!), do bogans live under a different name in NZ? Even if they don't, you fall under that category
