'One of our clients who already owned a McLaren F1, a Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren and now a 12C, wanted a unique car,' says MSO Programme Director, Paul MacKenzie.

The client wanted a machine that had all the capability of the 12C but wrapped in a unique body that reflected his needs and personality.'
