Hello,

My name is Nicolas, I'm living in France, and I am the owner the Mustang McLaren 1987 #065.
I know this car from 12 years but I could buy it only 6 months ago, finally !
I think it is the only one in France.
It was a dream and now it's real !!!!

This week-end the Mustang club of France organize the biggest mustang event of the year and for the first time I'll go with my McLaren.
Bye

Welcome! Post a few pics of your car at the show if you can! You have a picture album on this site for that very thing.

Best of luck with you McLaren and the show. I hope you enjoy yours as much as I have mine, and I've not even been able to drive mine yet.

Nice pictures! Interesting to see TRX wheels on the car.

Are they cheaper in France?

Yes, I'm living in Deauville, it's on the Normandy coast (north-west of France), perfect to drive with the top down ! When it's not raining and in Normandy it's raining a lot ...
the trx wheels come from my mustang 84 gt convertible, I ask to redone the McLaren wheels, I should receive them in about a month.
The price of the trx in France is twice the one in US (strange when you know that Michelin is a french company !)

It never ceases to amaze me that actually so few of these cars were made (479 in 1987, 1,015 in 1988, 247 in 1989 & 65 for 1990) totals a mere 1806 in total, and yet I have found them all over the world.

Puerto Rico/Canada/France/Holland/The Neterlands/Italy/Israel/Switzerland/ England/
Alaska (Okay USA, but still....) / Mexico, Spain,
and New Zealand & Australia. Others, that I cannot recall
at this moment !!
