Has anyone heard from a certain new owner of a McClaren or do we think he is still enjoying himself too much?

Last time I heard, Byron had joined the McLaren forum and is now relaxing on one of his 'new friends'' yacht in the Caribbean. :D

You and I should go for some therapy....you for your 'train driver obsession' and me for my "C22 obsession" (I have changed letters and numbers to protect the innocent). :thumbsup:

    Does anyone know what happened with Byron and this? After all the anticipation and a 13 page thread.......then nothing. :?

    He hasn't posted on here for a good while.

    I saw Byron and his Z on his social media recently, so maybe the Macca wasn't meant to be for now, but all looked well ! :driving:
