    no windscreen and roof.

    Speedster version is 200kg lighter than the SLR 722.
    op speed is 217.5 mph (8 mph more than the SLR 722 Edition).
    Only 75 examples will be built!



    Who could drive it at that speed with no windshield?

    Considering only 75 will be built I think it's fair to assumes that 95% of these will never be driven in anger, simply stored in some private collectors shed.:mad:

    Lewis Hamilton is supposed to be given one by Mc Laren. I'm sure he'll drive it the way it should be.
