I think I've posted this before but I saw one in Beijing a while back.

At first I assumed it was just an old taxi that somehow snuck in and had
the badge replaced, and paid no attention. Now I wonder if it could have
been one of the rarest of W123s, built by First Auto Works.

This was in 2006, when you could still see interesting cars in China.

OK, so it's just a brief sighting in a youtube video of Dick Bear's McLaren M8F
replica, but
how often do you see a LWB on the street?

Nice.
Also liked the McLaren kit car or whatever it was.
A local fellow has a Porsche that looks like the McLaren and he used to 
drive it on the street around here.
Unfortunately he had engine problems with it and has had it in his 
garage for a long while awaiting repair.

Crankshaft broke If I recall correctly.
