I Found Insanely Rare P1 Parts (That McLaren Doesn't Know About) 

Such a treasure trove of amazing bits and bobs.

We don’t know how much he made off Freddy in one transaction though do we?

Ratnesh is expecting a very considerable payment from Freddy. It's nice, that he's gonna make a special price for him to buy a bunch - but nobody thinks, he doesn't have a considerable margin to what he has originally paid. And that's fine. I love, that there are those treasure chests around - let them have their profit. If nobody collects those parts, it gets more expensive for everyone.

@@obi-wankenobi7160doesn’t really matter how much he made, freddie gets the parts cheaper and he (may or may not) get profit it’s a win win

Christmas for Tavarish in June 😮

Agreed! Thanks Freddie for sharing with us.

Curious about your statement. You say you’re not much of a car guy and that makes me wonder what made you want to watch a P1 resurrection series? I couldn’t agree more with you. I thoroughly enjoy people who have extreme passion for what they collect/sell. He has a level of expertise that is hard to find and even harder to find to help with such a task.

One thing is to know the car from just looking at it... but that was on another level

Look up my brothers salvage yard, all he does is 🇺🇸 cars tho. BigCat auto salvage, collection of rarities.

If you’re watching this video (and the series) I’m sure you’re secretly a pretty big car guy ;)

Your car is amazing man.

Such a beautiful car!

I thought that was you in the other video. I'm more familiar with your Vantage builds.

Beautiful Car. However that paint kills me. It looks like it belongs on an Old Caddy or something with 13 inch spoke wheels and hydraulic suspension.. Love the inlaid badge though. Wonderful idea when so many "people" love to steal badges and hood ornaments.

She is beautiful!

I've seen the car irl and it looks even better

I saw a Bugatti Chiron with the same paint spec. I wish I could find the photos I took of it but it was absurd. That was around when the Chiron was brand new, so that would have been some expensive factory paint.

Was at McLaren HQ couple weeks ago and next to a P1 on display they have a 765LT all clear (no paint) 100% carbon fibre. It is breath-taking. Their paint jobs are AMAZING, all done by hand too.

​@@jwalster9412Are you referring to the exposed blue carbon Chiron? The one where the blue carbon fades into the dark blue paint on some of the panels? It rolled out right at the beginning of the Chiron's production cycle.

@@rahulsudhir666 no it was full navy blue CFP if I remember correctly

???? Yeah, who wants to own and drive a P1 ....🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

So true, cars are about stories, whether its u and ur dad working on an old beater or tracking down hypercar parts... It's about the story...

stupid ass take, definitely was for the P1

It’s kind of crazy, every video has another well known car RU-vidr in it. I’m loving it.

I mean it’s a little about the P1 lol

Freddy doesn't like your comment

He’s also an absolutely lovely guy, he was kind enough to take me out in the P1 last year when he first got it. Really lovely chap!

Shmee the hater of dde 😂

Thing, though, is that those parts are extremely illiquid. If you're a burglar, you'd need to convert stolen goods to something you can actually use (e.g., cash). How do you do that? Set up a shop reselling McLaren parts and advertise it to the exact same couple hundred cost-sensitive McLaren owners that your victim is also advertising to? Long ago I heard that the worst car for theft risk at the time was a Honda Civic. Not expensive parts, at all, but the liquidity for stolen parts was the best. Lots of people will buy a cheap Honda Civic repair part for cash from a shady dealer and try not to think too hard about where the part came from. This dynamic ultimately protects someone like Ratnesh. This same dynamic showed up when I was a scientist. It's not hard to get into a research lab and wind up in front of a quarter-million-dollar machine that you could reasonably walk away with. I worked with several such machines over my training. But then what? Super illiquid. Love your handle by the way - the Mr. Sparkle episode was amazing :D

(Actually remembering now, from my Ph.D. - I remember an incident when a burglar sneaked into a lab building and walked away with some stuff. What did they walk away with? None of the hundreds of millions of dollars of gorgeous specialized scientific equipment. They walked away with office computers.)

@@ramanshah7627 Oh I agree they wouldn't be as easy to sell; it's a bit like thieves who target fine art. He's probably well-protected against a smash-and-grab from some local thieves. But if someone had connection to big money in the Middle East or any sort of international relationship, I can easily see a scenario where the goods would just get moved to a market where you could find unscrupulous buyers. But yes, a P1 steering wheel isn't something your local pawn shop is going to buy.

We don't have crime in the UK.

Agree. It’s a look into how his mind works, he probably spent a lot of time doing his homework before he purchased the P1

Hugs not drugs.

@@Make-Asylums-Great-Again hugs and drugs

i think he's getting the battery from Hamilton collection p1

Drugs then hugs
