    Never mind that-that's common compared to the mid-engined Group B Citroën BX in the first pic. .

    They keep an example of each, rather than every single car, no?

    IIRC, it's every chassis that survives by the end of its life cycle is kept. The only recent one they destroyed most of the examples of was the MP4/18 because it never raced, so they only kept one. Last year, they showed the unused MP4/18 liveried up with Kimi decals in the McLaren warehouse on F1 coverage. There was more than 30 cars in that warehouse!

    This kinda answers it 'No MP4 McLaren has been sold since Project 4 began'

    Nah. That was resolved in December 2001.

    Here's the article from SAAC: http://www.norcal-saac.org/archive/csx2287.html

    Read the final chapter. Spector was told to go .................. end of.
