White M

[-Tom-]

So back in 2011 , sept 28th according to the computer my gf took this PIC for me, as it was parked outside her work (Taylormade in Basingstoke)

Just milling through photos and stumbled across it. There can't be many of these ...

Edit - got a bit over excited so have changed the title. not a v exciting thread, i should have put in in spotted.

I read somewhere people talking about white Ms and must have mis-read. oops. I'll edit the title.

It's the white MR that's the Unicorn. The white MC is pretty common

Taylormade the golf club manufacturer? I thought they were based in the US/made in China?

Right, it is the MR that is hugely rare. oops. The main headquarters is in Carlsbad Ca, but the european HQ is in the delights of Basingstoke

I forget which, but I believe there is only one US golf manufacturer that still makes clubs in the US. All of my Nike and Taylormades say "made in China" on them. I believe that Mizunos (I have their irons) are made in Japan but assembled in China. Of course, none of this kit fits in the back of the ///M.

BTW the white coupe looks like it has the AC Schnitzer spoiler on the back.

This car has been sold a couple of times through Pistonheads over the last two or three years. IIRC one owner had it for only a few weeks before selling it on. There's also a photograph of it taken in Guildford that's in the spotted thread. It seems to be photographed and discussed on here more than most....

Yep, it lived in Guildford. In fact, it belonged to the previous owner of my flat. The missus is still convinced that we only bought the flat because of the ///MC camaraderie.

A couple more pics:





Edit: he sold it earlier in 2013, maybe spring time and replaced it with a 997

My son's old swimming instructor swears he's seen the unicorn down here, but I've never spotted it
