Not sure i quite see the attraction to Mr Hammond, but they do say beauty is in the eye of the beholder. :poke:

Car looks good though!

It's alright although it looks a bit Japanese with some fussy detailing to me. :|

I'm not a fan of the Hamster either!

As much as I admire the technology McLaren put into their cars, they're yet to make one I would actually want! Too much geekery going on for my liking and no manual gearboxes! :roll:

I'm not keen on their looks either - there is too much car behind the cockpit for my liking.
Coupes because stunning!
