Chassis number 3505, adorned in the distinctive pale green of Stirling Moss's UDT-Laystall race team, was crafted for him shortly before he sustained career-ending injuries in a crash on April 23, 1962, at Goodwood. Despite its challenges, this remarkable car has a racing history. British driver Innes Ireland drove it at the 1962 24 Hours of Le Mans, though it unfortunately did not finish the race. Its most notable triumph came when Ireland piloted the GTO at Goodwood, where he clinched victory in the prestigious 100-lap Tourist Trophy.

MCLAREN F1 GTR

The F1 GTR made history by clinching victory at the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans, triumphing over faster, purpose-built prototypes. A total of seven F1 GTRs entered the race, with five finishing in impressive positions: first, third, fourth, fifth, and thirteenth. This remarkable performance showcased the capabilities of what was fundamentally a road car. The victory signified several groundbreaking achievements in motorsport: McLaren won Le Mans on its first attempt; the F1 GTR secured the title in its inaugural year of production—an accomplishment not even Ferrari had achieved. Additionally, it marked the first Le Mans win for both a Finnish driver and a Japanese driver, as well as a debut victory for BMW power. To top it all off, the F1 GTR also claimed the 1995 Global GT Championship, proving that these cars were not only fast but consistently competitive.
