Mate- I am so sorry to hear about your dad, I recently lost my own father figure in my grandpa, he loved cars and trains and has definitely passed that passion onto me which is why I am watching your videos. I am sure your dad is very proud of your success! Keep strong- all the very best!

Your video with the 918 is still my favourite of yours of all time. Having lived in NZ for 15 years now, watching these videos really makes me appreciate how much emptier our roads are, and how much more lenient our traffic laws are (particularly if you have a LEGAL radar detector and drive normally around towns and bigger highways). You can really have so much fun on NZ backroads compared to Australia without worrying about being thrown in jail!

haha same here in america. If you watch LA car youtubers it makes it look like our cops are super strict and we can't do anything to our cars but outside of LA and New York you have incredible winding roads with no traffic, you can ride around with a radar detector legally(except in WV for some reason) and cops will pull you over because they like your car and want to take a look lol

P1’s the one for me. Lucky enough to have been in a friend’s P1 at Spa and Senna at Portimao. No other McLaren makes the noise of the P1 and the LT’s sound so tame in comparison. It’s such an angry and totally unique sound. Everything about it is just spaceship, and at full chat it sounds like it wants to rip a hole in the space-time continuum. Senna didn’t have a patch on it for excitement factor. Such a shame that so many of them sit undriven

Hi There I could not comment on your Defender Vid but I wanted to share this with you I own a 2008 Defender just like your dads and when i go i want two things to happen One is I want my Defender to take me on my last journey and i want my Son too keep it and run it for as long as he can maybe pass it on to my Grandson There are special just like your Dad we dads have faults just like the Defender we are not perfect and as we age we get the same problems as defenders part fail we start to rattle and we are not as fast as we were once in life but what you see is what you get a strong personality and a workhorse which provides for the family You enjoy every min you can young man with your dads car you have something very special indeed all the best for 2024 I so much enjoy your videos Kindest Regards

I spoke with Frank Stevenson when this came out, I was working at Mclaren at the time. I said to him it looks like something from the future, the funny thing is, his reply “this is old to us, 6 years in fact” goes to show how much work went into this. I spent a lot of time working on the composite parts of this. Hopefully once day I’ll have a passenger ride!

More like a totally stunning design for the 918 but with complicated (now outdated) hybrid tech and a ride devoid of passion and spectacle with its AWD system. 918 is the best daily for the three though. LaF is to me the one to have with it's powertrain/gearbox/V12/RWD

Saddest thing I heard was the battery tech was hard to get replaced which pushes them to sit and not be driven… So sad that the tech in it is the thing that’ll cause them eventually to be unserviceable.. gonna be interesting for future vehicles such as the SF90 to see if they meet the same fate and become unusable…
@DeeperImageAutomotive 5 ай бұрын
There is an updated battery and charger for the P1, but it costs $300,000 to replace both. Battery alone is around $190,000, plus $45,000 for the new charger, and labor. While you're doing that job, McLaren will recommend changing a few other things, so the job ends up being around 300k. That's the real reason many P1s don't have the battery fixed or upgraded, not that there is a shortage or hard to find. Even for someone that can easily buy a P1, its a tough pill to swallow for something that doesn't keep the car from being driven, and adds like 10 more HP.
