Collection of rare F1s gathered for introduction event at McLaren headquarters

It is certainly a rare site to behold - 21 McLaren F1 models all in one place.

These photos come to us courtesy of CarsUK, who's source for the photos was one of the F1 owners.

The cars were gathered for an event last month at McLaren headquarters in Woking, U.K. - the introduction of the new McLaren MP4-12C. McLaren had invited a host of current F1 owners to come along and create this wonderful photo-op for the supercar maker.

Since the McLaren F1 was introduced in 1994, it has been a rarity. There were only 64 road cars made and a total of just over 100 were ever built. The average price for an F1 today is $2.5 million (€1,940,000).

Interesting to note from the CarsUK story is that Rowan Atkinson, also known as Mr. Bean, is one of the few F1 owners who regularly drives his around instead of keeping it locked up and pristine.

Definitely not a site for the faint of heart. All of those cars pulling in must make one hell of a soundtrack.

Wow, what a sight that would be. Amazing! I wonder if Rowan Atkinson's McLaren F1 is lime green with a black bonnet... It is great to hear that he drives his instead of leaving it in a garage.

Awesome. I'd take that Silver one over a Bugatti Veyron any day. Even if it works or not, I'll keep it for the eye-candy! :)

That's because The F1 is a racecar and the Veyron is just expensive.

The F1 that is front and center in the top photo is Rowan Atkinson's car. The chassis number is 061 and the color is best described as Dark Burgundy or Maroon.
