With the replacement for the 650S, McLaren has made a significant styling change at the front end, moving away from designs around the headlights which reflect their badge and going for a far simpler, more aggressive approach, aerodynamics trumping aesthetics to a degree. Another interesting feature is a narrow valley which runs all around waist of the car which gradually deepens to incorporate engine air intakes. We can also see a few nods to the F1 road car of the 1990s, with triangular vent panels on the sides and a familiar roof line. That roof is largely covered in dark smoked panels, flanked with very subtle carbon framing and what really grabs the eye more than anything is the colour, a candy red/orange shade which McLaren calls ‘Azores’ and which really pops under bright light.....

It is in 1969 that the Italian technician Sauro Stella imagine, designs and builds this singular vehicle, hybrid between cars and motorcycles, characterized by a long and tapered central body and a couple of side wings, at the ends of which stay two of four wheels arranged "in rhombus", which will give at the car its typical aircraft shape. The unusual lines, painted by an intense yellow color, will be hold up by a motorcycle chassis pushed by a 250cc engine built by "MotoBi" company, today better known as "Benelli". With this setup the "Piro-Piro" will get several velocity records on the Monza's speedway between 1969 and 1970. The model, as always a result of a digital design, will be available both in kit and assembled. The kit includes resin and metal parts, thermoformed parts, a decals sheet, a photoengravings sheet and the usual instruction sheet with 3D graphics.
