Continuing a tradition spanning over five decades and counting now, McLaren and Gulf Oil are teaming up again. Introducing the all-new McLaren Elva Limited Edition Gulf Livery Roadster. Now you can dress your McLaren Elva in style while paying homage to motorsport legends.
The vintage orange and blue color scheme made its debut on McLaren’s Can-Am, Formula 1 and Indy cars in the late 60s. This all-new livery honors and renews the unique decades old partnership between McLaren and Gulf.
McLaren now has a new partnership with Gulf Oil allowing customers to commission their liveries directly from MSO (McLaren Special Operations). With the Elva, enthusiasts celebrate a combination of McLaren’s past, present and future.
Some of the very first sports cars designed by Bruce McLaren were the Elva racers in the 60s. The modern Elva, clearly inspired by the original’s spirit, carries the torch for the modern generation to enjoy.
McLaren’s Ultimate Series of cars includes the modern Elva. The engineers behind this series of cars maintain focus on super-lightweight designs capable of handling massive amounts of power. With a twin-turbo 4.0L V8 engine, the Elva is a roadster packing some serious potential for risky business. In other words, it is a lot of fun to drive.
If you want an Elva with the new Gulf livery, you better act fast. Only 149 examples of the McLaren Elva Limited Edition Gulf Livery cars are available for customers to order. This is going to be one of the rarest McLarens ever. The clock is ticking, don’t miss out before you see one of these blowing your socks off at the track. [via]
