McLaren exhibition at Louwman Museum

The exhibition 'McLaren' can be seen up to and including August 27, featuring a large number of road and race cars from the legendary sports car brand. The exhibition was opened by Amanda McLaren, the daughter of Bruce McLaren, the founder of the brand.

Ayrton Senna
The exhibition features a total of sixteen cars from private collections, various museums, McLaren Automotive in Woking (UK) and Louwman Exclusive. On display are, among others, the 1990 McLaren MP4-5B with which Ayrton Senna became world champion. But the legendary 1996 McLaren BMW F1 GTR Le Mans of Marc Duez, Jacques Lafitte and Steve Soper and the McLaren M8F Can-Am winner of Peter Revson from 1971 are also part of the collection. Naturally, the championship cars of Mika Hakkinen and Lewis Hamilton are not missing. Fans of cars with a roof will also be satisfied: the P1 GTR, a 12C Spider MSO 50th Edition and a 675LT Spider are also part of the exhibition. For the Dutch public, the brand-new McLaren 720S makes its debut during the exhibition.

Successes
According to Ronald Kooyman, director of the Louwman Museum, the exhibition gives a good impression of the brand: "McLaren has a magnificent history that we present to the general public through a special collection of cars. There are unique cars on display that have rarely or never been exhibited before."
