1995 McLaren F1 GTR Harrods rear clip
This is a rare original part for display – the very distinctive carbon fiber tail end from McLaren F1 GTR chassis 06R, the car that raced in Harrods livery during the 1995 BPR season at several venues including Le Mans and the 4H of Silverstone. The large bonnet measures 182x48x41cm / 72x19x16″ and is in very good ‘raced’ condition. What makes this item extra special is the added ‘Per te Ayrton’ lettering (for you Ayrton) as a tribute to Senna who died the previous year.
- It is of course accompanied by our lifetime certificate.
This will surely make for a beautiful display piece from the $20M+ supercar, in one of its most celebrated liveries!
- McLaren F1 GTR chassis #06R was campaigned successfully throughout the 1995 and 1996 seasons with Mach One Racing, and is one of the longest serving examples of the McLaren F1 GTR in competition. The Harrods-sponsored #51 was famously one of seven McLaren F1 GTRs to compete at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1995, and was driven to the final podium position by multiple Le Mans race winner Derek Bell, his son Justin, and Andy Wallace. After this result, the team went on to win the final three races of the BPR Championship.
- The following year, the team enjoyed another strong campaign. Oliver Grouillard joined Derek Bell and Andy Wallace in the line-up for the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and finished a commendable sixth. The team also claimed a win at Silverstone in the Global GT Endurance championship.
