stulid · 20 Jun 2010 at 09:28

dont know what it is, but it must have had a huge capacity engine, massive noise, like a WWII fighter plane

Ford "truck" or pick up to us brits, probably an F450. Will have an immensely huge V8 or V10 most likely.

Looks a bit like an International CXT, which would use one of these:-

Ok, so I present to you, the McLaren MP4-12c that I saw an hour ago just about to get onto the A3 by Cobham in Surrey. As I live a mile away from the McLaren HQ I genearlly get to see a fair amount of fine metal, but this is the first time I've seen this out on the road.
It was in McLaren orange, looked a lot smaller than I was expecting, but certainly looked pretty damn good.

I didn't get a photo as I was driving, so for the sake of completeness here's a configuration image* in the correct colour.

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

*to satisfy certain people.

Robbiemc I saw it too earlier when I was out! I didn't know what it was

Was the other side of Byfleet near the A3 junction I believe I saw it, but I can't remember exactly. Lovely looking thing in the flesh.

At the risk of being pedantic, that's not a photo.

How weird, we probably passed each other today

The GF got a bit of a shock when I booted it in order to catch it up before it turned on to the A3.

Common as muck those McLarens, here is one on the M25 (near the A3 as it happens) from yesterday morning. Apologies for the crap photos, my brother snapped away with a mobile, but keeping up with it in a Peugeot 106 is not easy.
