You can have 2 sexy girls with you, or carry the family around with 1 kid, or use the 3rd seat for a golf bag, and carry 3 people's worth of luggage in the car, get a range of over 450 miles on a tank of gas on the highway and listen to the most glorious V12 engine of it's era and run on street tires. With the headlight upgrade, night driving is no problem. If you're lucky, you might even find some cars with upgraded brakes. And any problem, Mclaren will literally fly in and fix it for you.

There's a white mclaren selling for 14 million. Kinda laughed when he said "combined price of about 2 million pounds!".

[@Laurynas_S]

As the owner of those cars said: its an investment. As some cars getting cheaper while it gets older, these car in this case is the opposite. Back then the cost of these cars combined might been around 2 million pounds, today it might be x10 that. Is quite an awesome investment :)

[@longtailgt]

This video was shot more than 8 years ago. Thats pre-2005. At that time, the then "new" Enzo cost close to a million pounds, and the F1 was already on the 1 million mark. Today, one of these cars will cost you more than the combined price of these two at the time of filming. And the reason that white McLaren costs so much as 14M is because its one of the very few, of the already very few (less than 100) models to exist, to be painted white. And yes, these cars are as much investments as they are toys to fool around in on a track.

[@amathew711]

***** Yah I know this was shot a while back. Buy yeah, great investment.

That white McLaren is so expensive because it has done like 80 miles and was owned by a celebrity

This is one of the most special moments in auto journalism history. Every few years I come back to watch this. The F1 is comically valuable, with this being the most special of ANY privately owned McLarens in the world! Jay Leno's McLaren is worth roughly 20m. This is infinitely more valuable. This The Enzo needs no introduction. As amazing as this episode is, it's also heartbreaking. Analog race cars are a thing of the past. This is an experience that a very, very niche group of people will only ever be lucky enough to experience. As well as reminding me of my age. Moments like this are a thing of the past. The visceral, euphoric sensation that this man is experiencing, and is subsiquently transferring to the viewer is a moment that is incapable of being experienced now a days. Words can't explain. Then there's TopGear. As fun as FithGear is, nothing will ever compete with the great three! In a very special episode, while driving an Aston, Jeremy Clarkson explained the heartbreaking truth of how these special machines were a means to an end. This episode can't help but remind me of that episode, which is bitter sweet in and of it's self. Just thinking about TopGear evokes emotion. The realization that these machines will never exist again, reminds me of the ending of the greatest show in history.

[@markgriff9053]

The F40 would be my second choice not the enzo ..for me Nothing beats the F1. I remember years ago we came out of Oulton park with my mate, who had just finished building the UK's second RS500 cosworth engine swap into a old P reg RS 2000. It was running about 350bhp which does not sound much these days, but in a striped out light car, with only two seats and no door cards, carpets or mirror , it was quick , and used to spit out four foot flames. Anyway he used to take his car to Collin's enginering , where he met a young lad who's dad had Nigel mansels old F40 and the lad Jason had a 500bhp saphire cosworth which his dad had bought for him along with a number plate CLAS 5Y ..Think they owned a denim import business. Anyway coming out of Oulton Park we spotted them a few cars up ahead in the Que to leave . We all came out on the road and my mate took a few cars and got behind Jason. Next thing we notice his dad flooring his F40 and his son too. We could'nt belive it , his dad was really pushing it , we ended up in a race all around the area which must have gone onfor thirty to forty miles, it just did not stop .. at one point the F40 that was in front was almost writen off after he pulled out as a capri was turning the bend.. because it was LHD he had'nt seen it. Although the F40 was quicker the differenc between that and the 500bhp cossie was about the same gap as we had from the 500bhp to us in th RS . Racing on a road against a car like that for such distance around country lanes and B roads was pretty special at the time. But looking back on it now I realise how special a moment that was to be in a full on race with such a legend of a car and being Nigel Mansels old F40 just makes it more special. Thought I'd share that with you , just got lost in the memory writing that lol

[@rjlee3112]

The F1 is a bit more special than any other car, but for driving, especially on public roads, I for sure would pick something else.

[@Draylogic]

+RJ Lee Well that was the LM version so a standard version say with a LM spec aero kit would be much more comfortable

[@topfitnessssss]

This is a GTR as clearly explained.

[@alexradev1412]

Top Fitness Yup, Race GTR converted for road use. Because of the Papaya orange color many people here think that this is the LT. That's as F1 as it gets, of course a normal F1 would be more comfortable to live with. Anyway, the owner is so blessed!

[@evoixdelaluz]

You are so god damn right about that, listening to a McLaren F1 engine is very special!

[@markmarsh27]

That was GREAT! ... two dream cars I'll never get to drive .... but now I feel like I have!

[@jellofuel]

I can't get over how amazing that McLaren sounds

[@deependubag1714]

two legends .... one name and other performance ❤

[@celicasaur6397]

There's something special about Tiff Needell. Totally different style to Clarkson, but you respect his views just as much.

[@MarbleFox162]

That’s a genuine F1 LM as well. Crazy. I watched this vid when I was younger, and said that it was an LM, and someone in the comments “corrected” me and said it was one just of the regular f1s fitted with the LM body kit. But after finally doing research, I was right! It is a genuine LM. One of only five customer cars in the world. (There is technically a sixth, but it’s a prototype that is pretty much exactly the same as the finished product. Mclaren keeps it at the factory.)

[@Froseization]

F1 always in my heart (despite not being in my garage).

[@fundiver198]

The Mclaren isnt really a road car. Its a race car, which happen to be road legal. Just listen to that engine noise. Its pure race car sounds. Might be exciting for a short blast, but in reality the modern day Malarens including the P1 are much more usable.

[@1958plymouth440V8]

The normal F1 is definitely comfortable enough and useable everyday. It came with air conditioning, electric windows, a 10 disc Kenwood CD stereo system and of course, all the sound insulation. And you get three seats and more boot space than a Ford Fiesta of the time.

[@StigDesign]

Mclaren F1 is the normal Road Car Version. LM or GTR version are the race car version sort of but they can be in normal caolors with out sticker`s.etc like the one in this video. CLeqarly see`s the air intake on the Sides of the hood. and the Spoiler thats a gtr lm only had spoiler Specs alsoe whas different thoe. Mclaren F1 even had Guiness record for Normal car Max Speed of 386km`h (km`t my contry Norway)even mpore if chekk wikipedia.eks if you have Played NeedForSpeed HP2(from 2002) on ps2 u can chose the normal one or LM version gtr whas in NeedForSpeed RoadChallenge/High Stakes. you can alsoe Search for the Mclaren F1 and history/info. :)

[@conn4m4n]

Dat BMW engine doh.

[@themindofsorin9998]

Don't care about what's more [to you] usable; I'd rather have an F1 than a P1.

[@EvilElmo81395]

The Mind of Sorin Amen to that!

[@KuyaArbee]

just an amazing and epic review! TIFF NEDELL makes you excited

[@HarmonicaMarco]

Real car presenters, interested in the cars, not themselves. Top man Tiff!

[@sandrarios2496]

I'd have the F1 any day. If it were released today, it still looks like something modern. And the central driving position is awesome. The Enzo is what it is. I've always been a little iffy about its styling, but anyway, I would take the McLaren, no question. Especially one of those GTR versions.

[@flyingphoenix113]

I wouldn't say the enzo was the pinnacle of the F series. More like the F50 (which is more period correct as well), but the enzo is one sweet car!

[@ChristianArreguin]

wasn't the f50 a disaster?

[@flyingphoenix113]

Christian Arreguin for Ferrari's PR, yes. Telling customers that they, "weren't worthy of the F50's greatness" may not have been the best move. They did the same thing with the enzo, but people were used to it by then. In every way shape and form the F50 was designed to be the ultimate Ferrari. After all, it has an engine taken directly from an F1 car (and that engine was bolted directly to the chassis!) Unfortunately, Jeremy Cockster, the number one most famous car reviewer accused it of being "too hard core." Since a lot of people quote Jeremy like the Bible, the F50 has developed a bad reputation. Most true car fans know that this is not true. It is without a doubt far superior to the already great F40 and it is much more pure than the watered down enzo. This is why the F50 is worth over 4 times it's original price and it is only continuing to become more desirable.

[@alvarulanda]

Great comment I agree with you about the f50

[@flyingphoenix113]

alvarulanda Thanks mate! Educating the world about the F50, one Jeremy Clarkson fanboy at a time! ;)

[@alvarulanda]

Yes please do. Everyone's needs to know the truth about that car and not believe everything jeremy says.

[@moesab1281]

This Mclaren F1 LM is now worth $35mil . Let that sink in. The owner bought it as an investment

[@devendramishra7180]

It's funny to see how the subtitles read [Music] when he first fires up the F1's engine @ 4:37 😂😁

[@BearerOfDreams]

In my opinion although it's a tough choice, I'd take the Enzo. It's a car ahead if it's time come to think of it. A car that was made in the early 2000s and had features and design of a car of the early 2010s

[@user-fo1ow1jq3b]

A car ahead of its time? You just summed up the McLaren f1 lol

[@TuddecBMW]

So "the most exciting road car ever built" has a BMW engine. Aweso///Me.

[@Nemoticon]

Yes, but a BMW engine the likes of which has never seen a BMW chassis!

[@dyslexiusmaximus]

BMW is yet to build a better engine than the V12 in the F1

[@bujfvjg7222]

BMW X5 LM ...........BMW V12 LM and BMW V12 LMR

[@s325ibmw3]

Firebrand Uhhh the 850CSI was a S70 M engine the prototype M8 E31 was the S70/2 engine same as the Mclarem F1 the M8 prototype never came In production bmw canceld so Yes it came in bmw cars

[@namesomega3694]

dyslexius maximus And it was the S85B50 V10 at thr time

[@shadowworlds]

Both of those cars are so unreal. Would love to check out and take them out for a drive myself

[@mwsiviero]

Just an amazing video!

[@kenanismayil9394]

what is the name of song at 6:05

[@giovannihernandez3604]

What is the name of the song @6:27?

[@carlosmiguel4756]

4:37 look at that engine start sound man!!! omg that is pure orgasm, that V12 sounds so glorious and visceral! BMW did make it a beast! Even today, it's a worthy adversary to modern supercars.

[@jessehitchcock9141]

Remember seeing tiff near Woking pulling out of that shell garage in the F1 LM.. the noise was biblical.

[@oliidp8066]

Combined value of £2 million haha more like £20 million

[@user-fo1ow1jq3b]

This video is from like 2004 dude. C'mon lol

[@jessethigpen6437]

In 2020 prices, an F1 by itself is 20mil...

[@billsalvey]

that mclaren is just f**king epic

[@samitapio8774]

So much enthusiasm and respect in those words: " is very special".

[@BrantlyFrederick]

I think just the standard f1 is 22 million right now I couldn’t imagine how much the LM would fetch

[@jannissen9211]

Oh my God the screaming BMW engine in the F1. I want it now.

[@foadrightnow5725]

What is the name of the song at 6:35?

[@thankyou6864]

Great programme hey, thank you for that!
