Look what turned up in the car park today...

First time I've seen one up close:

Ace bit of kit. I'm not entirely sold on it - maybe it was the colour, or the relatively understated looks - but I would never say no....

That's all, folks!

It's even got a blanket to keep it's nose warm!

Five_Star · 16 Mar 2011 at 22:05

I think it looks better in that colour than the yellow/orange one that Evo had on the cover

Morba · 16 Mar 2011 at 22:07

looks better in black!

tummelv · 16 Mar 2011 at 22:07

Yeah, the rear end in particular looks amazing in black. :eek:

Sparky · 16 Mar 2011 at 22:07

Nice

is that a TC2000 in the background?

Lashout_UK · 16 Mar 2011 at 22:09

Yes nuTs, it is! Not mine though, before you ask

For you:

Nice looking car.

We have a lot of new truck deliveries at work and one day on the back of the delivery truck was that new Audi sports car, looked amazing and should have took some photos really. This was a while ago mind and before it was seen on the road in the uk.

WANT!

Those wheels are too beautiful.

Shimmy · 16 Mar 2011 at 22:17

Sodding car bras, why bother.

Rear end looks cleaner in black.

Lashout_UK · 16 Mar 2011 at 22:20

Solely for protecting against stone chips. This one covers lots of ground

That's not a car bra, it's cloth for starters.

What is it then and its purpose?

Certainly not disguising anything, the MP4 12C has been released.

Firestar_3x · 16 Mar 2011 at 22:26

Looks more like something that's fitted to a car during transport to the dealers to stop dirt / flys and the such sticking to it whilst it's on the transporter.

Oh, like a car bra?

Yeah I know, I'm just not a fan at all.

Usually quite costly, ruins the look and seems especially silly on a super car.

So you don't know.

Car bras are made of a dense material not lightweight cloth, that wouldn't stop stone chips.

Never claimed i did, but it's not a car bra that you or i would walk out and buy, 1. because it's made out of the wrong stuff and 2. it doesn't cover one of the most exposed panels.

Anyways, nice car, i'm still looking forward to the McLaren garage being finished down the road from me.
