Here’s one we made earlier…

Superb spec 992 GT3 spotted in the car park at Donington Park.

Ferrari Purosangue spotted outside Radical Motorsport HQ.

First one I’ve seen in the wild.

Ooof! Coolest car spot at Donington Park so far is this McLaren 675LT Spider in Napier Green.

Here’s my review from back in 2016: motoringresearch.com/car-reviews/mc…

Waiting to watch the Radical Cup at Donington Park.

Outgoing Bentley boss Adrian Hallmark will be racing this Speed 8-liveried SR3.

I spy me looking ‘busy’ 👀🚙

At Donington Park for the BTCC today.

Spotted the same Radical SR10 XXR I drove on-track a few weeks ago.

Lexus LBX Takumi FWD on test.

“It promised to be more exciting than a stock 911 Carrera, easier to live with than an RS and less intimidating than the ‘widowmaker’ Turbo.”

Very clean and original E34 BMW 520i spotted in Croydon.

Wearing its 30 years very well. Would happily daily-drive.

‘This is essentially what I attempted in the college car park 25 years ago: going in circles and making tyre smoke. Only nobody orders me off the premises this time.’

I learned to drift a Caterham Seven at Brands Hatch – and you could, too: cityam.com/drifting-for-b…

Jaguar XJ6 Series III 4.2 Sovereign spotted in Croydon.

Less than 65,000 miles at its last MOT. Proof it wasn’t only Fords that rocked pepperpots in the 1980s, too…

Just delivered: Lexus LBX.

The smallest Lexus yet, with a more powerful (136hp) version of the three-cylinder hybrid engine in the Toyota Yaris Cross.

This one is front-wheel drive and top-level Takumi spec, priced at £38,245.

…and back home to the Bond lair that is the McLaren Techical Centre.

Look out for my 750S Spider review in the next issue of Supercar Driver magazine, available by subscription only here: supercar-driver.com

McLaren 750S Spider on test.

Vital stats: 750hp, 590lb ft, 0-62mph in 2.9 seconds, 206mph, 1,326kg (dry weight), 1,438kg (kerb weight), 23.2mpg and 276g/km.

Price before options: £267,900. Price as tested: £324,390.

Photoshoot at Box Hill today with the 750S Spider.

Retractable hard-top roof adds 49kg in weight, although McLaren’s carbon fibre tub means body rigidity is apparently unaffected.
