[I hope I do not upset the cart, over there, but, truth be told, she is NOT a real honest ascMcLaren, if if if they are claiming it's a 1986.
I do not have VINs for 1985s so it might be an '85. But, if it's decided that it's a 1986....IT AIN'T a McLaren.
How do i know?
I check all of the VINS for all 1986 ascMcLaren Coupes, and then check the EuroCoupes, VINS, and there is no 616178, which I saw was posted on 4 eyed pride. No Cigar. Some enterprising guy I think was to pull a fast one. HOWEVER, if it's a 1985, forget this posting. It then might be real.

Good luck with Mr. Sage. That's a nice find !

Okay.... I went over there & I see it's a 1985 and therefore it probably is real. I have almost NO paperwork on 1984s nor 1985s, only on 1986s, where I have totally everything !

Sandy, I am a very skeptical person and the body tag checks out with options not available any other way other than what an asc car would have. He has the small metal "Mclaren coupe Coupe" tag too.
