F1 McLaren F1 Goes Up in Flames

[sako97]

A 1995 McLaren F-1 Coupe was destroyed today after the engine caught fire. The owner had not driven the car in 6 months which probably explains why it had engine problems. There were only about 64 street-legal Mclaren F1's produced and at least 4 have been destoyed in crashes. This one happened on Airport Blvd in Santa Rosa, CA.

A reminder, always let your Mclaren warm up fully before you take out on the the streets , if not this will be your outcome.

Ouch! That's gonna hurt.

The chassis seems repairable. But I'm not so sure about the engine. Aluminium engine blocks cannot stand up to fire. Hopefully the fire was put out speedily after the fire.

Careful, don't annoy the Bimmer boys.

You might be joking but we have some folks here who take such comments way too seriously.

BMW better get going on that next supercar, soon there will not be any proof left that they ever was involved in one...

Poor thing.

^LOL. Oh, that's very funny! But somehow a little ironic...

Well hey, at least we have a big fat fastback with a lounge in the middle to look forward to!
