Question about UT McLarens

3771 Views 46 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  MockingBird
Hi Guys,

I have a chance to get some UT racing McLarens, and I know that they all are quite rare.....but I'm wondering, which ones are the rarest and most sought after?
I know the Locitite is going for some pretty ridiculous prices on ebay, so I'm getting that one for sure. :happy
Thanks for your help guys, plz respond asap....I don't have much time for this to work!! :cheers

I would say nos. 59 and 51 for me. The others are just as desirable. If you can get them, get them all. I dont think you can go wrong with macs anyways.
It think these are getting pretty hard to find these days:
#41 Loctite
#40 EMI
#59 Ueno Clinic
#51 Harrods
Is no. 59 this one?: McLaren F1 GTR #59 Lehto Winner 24 heures du Mans 95'

And is this the no. 51 you referring to winston?
McLaren F1 GTR #51 Bell 3rd 24 heures du Mans 95' (the Harrods car)

btw, here's the list I can choose from:
McLaren F1 GTR #53 Giroix Le Mans 1996
McLaren F1 GTR #59 Lehto Winner 24 heures du Mans 95'
McLaren F1 GTR #24 Bell 4th 24 heures du Mans 95'
McLaren F1 GTR #51 Bell 3rd 24 heures du Mans 95'
McLaren F1 GTR #30 Nielsen 4th 24 heures du Mans 96'
McLaren F1 GTR #8 Soper Sebring 97'
McLaren F1 GTR #8 Kox Sebring 97'
McLaren F1 GTR #40 Bscher 24 heures du Mans 97'
McLaren F1 GTR #39 Bell 24 heures du Mans 97'
McLaren F1 GTR #40 O'Rourke 4th 24 heures du Mans 98'
McLaren F1 GTR #41 O'Rourke 24 heures du Mans 98'

Thanks again for your help guys!

Yes! The same cars. I am on the look out for the #51 myself. Its my holy grail for the moment.

These are the ones I'd go for. :lol :lol The Sebring '97 car driven by Peter Kox is #9, not #8 as indicated. It's got white mirrors whereas the #8 Sebring car has red ones.
Huh?
The seller showed me a pic, and the #9 Soper car is has white mirrors, while the #8 kox car has red mirrors?

If I were still in the lookout for Macs, I'd have to get all of the ones you listed. :giggle

Any street Mclarens?
Here is a listing with pics in case you haven't seen it :cheers

Thanks for the link, it was very helpful, but I still can't find the #8 in my pic on the listing. Maybe its an updated version?

Thanks for all the responses!

You have hawkeyes Johny. I didn't even catch that at first. Something tells me that's a custom job. I'm trying to find a photo from the FIA GT Sebring race. I'll post a photo when I find one.
Not much luck yet but I did find this. It's the cover of an FIA GT 1997 Yearbook. The site of so many CLK GTRs and F1 GTRs is awesome!!!

I caught that too, but I was wondering if it was something I forgot about in my #8 so I couldn't wait to get home. :giggle

BTW, how many are you planning to get, Phwoarrr?

:iagree

The FIA GT 97 season is probably the most exciting and intriguing for me because I never got to see it. Speedvision, at the time, was taken away from us by the cable company. :ranting
Phwoarrr...if that Loctite car is C$99, I'd jump on it. I don't think the #8 and #9 are *that* rare making them worth $99 (in either Cdn or US currency). Prices can vary greatly in stores fo those UT F1 GTRs. A local place has a #30 Art Soorts for C$450. :lol :lol :lol That is insane since they pop up on eBay for a lot less than that. I think the store might be fishing for suckers.
