McLaren F1 drives, flyby's, revs, and more! [VIDEO] Great NEW video of an F1 after a detail by Paul Dalton in the UK.
The inside cabin videos are some of the best I have seen, HD quality which is rare for most F1 videos.
Had to share with the TEAM

McLaren F1 - Showcase: Ride, Fly-bys, Startups and Overview
The McLaren F1 is a legend among supercars, holding the production car top speed record at the time of 243mph (391km/h). The powerplant is a 6.1l BMW M produced V12 that provides 627hp to take the car from 0-62mph in 3.2s and 0-100mph in a mind boggling 6.3s.
The car features various interesting aspects; a triple seat layout so the driver has great feel of the car, gold foil to reflect heat within the engine bay, and let's not forget quite how fantastic it looks with a design that is yet to be affected by age.
This particular car, number #040, is a road going version belonging to famous internet user 'Flemke'. The car has recently been undergoing significant redevelopment by McLaren including a whole new look both inside and out.
I was lucky enough to be able to visit the car and shoot this video showing you an overview of the car, some sounds from the gorgeous engine firing up and a few quick revs, shots of the car enjoying the British countryside and some inside driving footage to get you closer to feel of riding in this true masterpiece.
I hope you enjoy this showcase video of the McLaren F1, the opportunity and experience were unbelievable and I'm still yet to wake up from the dream! My huge thanks go to Flemke for making it possible.

I am a 4k post-addict to PH! I've actually been on a few tunnel runs in the last year, none over summer though as they start too early!
