    I think they have more than 1 person working for them...

    It's a Top Gear video. I have it on Kazaa.

    Bassicly they show a number of engineers molding carbon fiber to the shape of the McLaren and fitting all the parts together. A sight to behold, it was.

    like most exotics, if your buy a mclaren F1 u get your own personal mechanic who will rebuild your engine annually beleive it or not..

    like WTF would an average mechanic do if u brought that car to his shop??? , he'd stand ther scratching his balls thats what

    and if u buy a ferrari, u get a nifty leather coat!!!
