Mclaren have a xp1 lm that sits on a spinning plate in one of the offices at there hq, when i won tickets to meet lewis hamilton it was there in all its glory, apparently it is owned by ron dennis, and lewis mentioned it in his speach and said that ron would let him have it if he won mclaren 3 world titles, pretty awesome car i must say but the best car there by far had to be aryton senna honda powered f1 car
