That was amazing. He could start his own custom car company. Imagine, a super car with a stamp “Assembled by hand, Made in South Africa.” something to be proud of.
I saw a time lapse of this car being built but did not know it was built here in sa. I also did not know Gordon Mary was south african. Our motoring history is really fantastic.
When you mix talent and passion the only outcome is something great and this is a prefect example of that. This is a great rendition of one of the best car's ever made.
ive stated it in other Donnie/Mclaren vids. He is the literal Banksy of the automotive rep world. I wouldn't even qualify this as a rep. Donnie is so talented that I believe he should be a Billionaire already if he isn't yet. Such a rare human being and actual artist. I am humbled.
The thing with the McLaren F1 is that BMW V12 and it's normally aspirated rawness. I could tell this was forced induction first time I heard the sound. I would have gone for a lower power figure and put full "bolt ons" for that V12 and kept it NA. Awesome, though.
wow i think thats the most incredible accurate replica car ive ever seen. hope it doesnt get someone put in prison lol because it could easily pass off as a real one.
he should have tried to to source an m5 v10. that would have been pretty epic and probably as close to the f1 v12 as you can get as far as engine design.
What a fantastic build! You need to have something thats genuine McLaren F1 on it though, how about something like a driver's seat?.... I have one, the test build drivers "widebody" seat for chassis 054
Hi there, what an amazing idea! We'd love to put you in touch with Danie, would you mind emailing us: youtubeadmin@cars.co.za and we'll make it happen :)
I agree. I had to stop watching. Steering wheel is sketchy. That isn't the tires, its the steering linkage and steering wheel and or hub. I'm sure is representative of the entire whole build, good to look at, but thats all. Good for driver to be respectful.
The irony is that Gordon always aimed for the F1 to be the best road car ever and I admire the dedication to this build but it looks very uncomfortable on the road
It looks like a F1 built from the back of a cigarette package, surely you can see the difference? You made a pound land F1, it's nice but it's a far cry from a replica.
Hello Danie,I love your car but my dream is to build a Ferrari F40.I am getting all the parts together but still looking for a Gearbox.I will be using an Audi ABZ motor.If you come across or if you have one spare box then please let me know and I will get in contact with you.

23 year waiting for it to be finished is going to take a lot patience...
I saw a time lapse of this car being built but did not know it was built here in sa. I also did not know Gordon Mary was south african. Our motoring history is really fantastic.
Didn’t know that either
Damn
And Gordon Murry went to Glenwood High lol.
That's Gordon Murray fact caught me as well ❤️🔥🔥🔥
Respect that's all, mad respect for you, you started and you completed it and its amazing.
Even more amazing than the car is the human being that built that - WOW
I'm so glad this car's story is being told. What an awesome creation! Hats off to this guy 👏
You can literally see the NVH in the footage. Car design has come a long way. Well done to Danie for taking this on.
you can not have a car collection in south Africa without a citi golf somewhere in the back ground lol
Amazing! Create passion went into this build. Thanks for sharing this.
My respect for the owner📈,what a marvelous piece of art
Absolutely brilliant, Danie advertise your company, you are extremely talented

I have followed his chanel for sometime glad to see his car get the love it deserved.

Incredible build! Well done!
This is epic! McLaren F1, Saleen S7, hand built. What ever you call it it is badass 😎
This build is amazing and well done on the track selection
Well done Danie 👍
Please do something about that wobbly steering wheel.
Remarkable craftmanship
Scheech what a build, props to this guy
Got to meet danie at cars in the park this year.... Such a Great down to earth person and soft spoken.
What an effort! Dammit man, well done
Unbelievable 🏅👌🇿🇦👏 , this talented guy could easily work at the MCLAREN HEADQUARTERS IN WOKING, SURREY IN ENGLAND !
Very impressive!! Well done!
this is the most accurate replica i have ever seen! n the fact that it replicated the legendary mclaren f1 lm made it more awesome in a long shot
My goodness!!! Just amazing!
The thing with the McLaren F1 is that BMW V12 and it's normally aspirated rawness. I could tell this was forced induction first time I heard the sound. I would have gone for a lower power figure and put full "bolt ons" for that V12 and kept it NA.
Awesome, though.
Absolutely amazing attention to detail, but I can't help but think the engine sounds a bit lumpy.
This is a joy to watch...I need my own homemade supercar now 😎 but without skills I need someone like Dani
Amazing! Incredible build. respect for you.
Amazing achievement ! Hats off Danie 👍
What a smart guy, he should be proud. Super cool
Now that’s impressive 😮
Iyoh....tears my in eyes
You sir are my hero
Build your own mac wow
Incredible dedication
Nice video as always
Simply amazing!!!
It’s cool that he made that and the guy has serious serious talent. With that said, WTF is with the steering wheel?! That isn’t safe.
With the mandatory Citi golf water bottle 😂
Awesome achievement 👌🏼
A very talented guy well done
What an awesome car.
Wow. 395 tyres. Such a handful.
I didn't knew that those even existed
wow i think thats the most incredible accurate replica car ive ever seen. hope it doesnt get someone put in prison lol because it could easily pass off as a real one.
Absolutely amazing, also that golf with the huge intercooler🤔
My eyes kept going to that golf as I was watching. That Golf looks sick
@@lethabomolefe9282 that colour mybru!
This is brilliant!
YOU ARE AMAZING AND A GENIUS MAN!!
Its a great build, but what did it cost?
Brilliant Sir
Freakin Wow!!! Hats off🎩
Very nice build 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
Ok thats next level super cool I am totally ok with replica's when they are done right. BMW guys is that engine misfiring or is it just me?
The loose steering wheel is a bother though. 😳
It's clips loose to get in and out. They didn't show it in the video for effect obviously.
It looks like a China mall special.
A proper removable steering still wouldn’t have that much play.
@@rushilkisoon Spot on. A bit of bushing or shimming would have done the trick.
That disturbed me too and immediately stood out 😆
WOW!
Amazing thats all i can say
This guy is my hero lol
Amazing
Rustenburg stand up🔥🔥
Lol The way Ciro climbed in the car
His stomach could steer the wheel lol
Sorry Ciro😅🤣
Respek Danie😎
Amazing!
Christ on a bicycle, this is beyond incredible! A home cooked F1
love to see it😍
sorry, I couldn't look past the loose steering wheel...SHEESH!!
Otherwise, UTTERLY AMAZED!!!
I think it's mainly down to those fat rear racing tyres...not good for the road
@@busisanizzulu9267 nah bru.... look at the this: 01:10...?
That’s mental, considering it’s not real.. I still really want it! And It wouldn’t surprise me if this cake would auction upto a million pound!
0:12 - 0:50 "Smooth" 👍
Looks cool, but sounds like an old school Volkswagen Beetle.
he should have tried to to source an m5 v10. that would have been pretty epic and probably as close to the f1 v12 as you can get as far as engine design.

The guy who built this also drove a Real Mclaren F1 , it’s on his RUclips channel, I just forgot the name of his channel
Hi there, yes you are correct. His channel is called Brough Built
Such an amazing accomplishment.
Sadly, thing I noticed the most is the steering wheel having so much play. Lol
Best super car replica in the world perhaps? Guy should crowd fund start a super car replica business.
This is awesome, nice job, only that wobbling steering wheel is kinda making me uneasy..
how can i order one? bliksim nice man
Looks great but doesn’t seem to drive too great. Why’s the steering wheel so loose?
I agree. I had to stop watching. Steering wheel is sketchy. That isn't the tires, its the steering linkage and steering wheel and or hub. I'm sure is representative of the entire whole build, good to look at, but thats all. Good for driver to be respectful.
Take my money.
Dope
It looks awesome, but why is the roof so low? It looks like it’s a chopped McLaren F1 LM.
Amazing. Would he build a few more, for the right price?
Drop him a comment on his Instagram or RUclips channel, both named BroughBuilt
You should off done it with 21" wheels and make anything larger to look good and better ride hight...
Steering wheel is so sketchy!
Clip on
The irony is that Gordon always aimed for the F1 to be the best road car ever and I admire the dedication to this build but it looks very uncomfortable on the road
The Mclaren F1 LM isn't a road car, it is a racecar. I bet the LM and the regular F1 are two worlds appart when you drive them.
Just wondering why the steering wheel is loose? Bit sketchy 😅
He is one talented kid lol
Honestly if they sold these for under 400 grand people would buy them
1:10 but the steering wheel is like its loose some bolts
Looks beautiful from the outside... Sounds so squeaky and rattly, steering looks loose - i wouldn't feel confident driving this
must be quite scray to test drive that with the steering wheel flapping around like that..
Comes with a 12 mile warranty
Cool car but why is the steering so damn loose. Doesn’t seem very reassuring.
I would never fit
Boer maak n plan level 1000000000000000000
Hmmm, how much did this cost? Why not just buy a mclaren lp720?
because there's no such thing as a mclaren lp720
@@dtm0524 hmm clever.... ok mclaren 720 then.... happy?
It looks like a F1 built from the back of a cigarette package, surely you can see the difference? You made a pound land F1, it's nice but it's a far cry from a replica.
Could you build me a car
🤦🏻 replicas are just embarrassing
Looks like a piece of crap🤣
Your general car knowledge is rather crappy
Let's all laugh at that !!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sounds ruff
