Celebrated F1 engineer brings lightweight MIA back to life as a 700bhp-per-tonne supercar
The N1A supercar is a British-made, V8powered, ultra-light tribute to one of McLaren's best-known race cars.
It is the product of Hampshire-based Nichols Cars, the eponymous outfit of renowned motorsport engineer Steve Nichols, whose pioneering work with carbonfibre was instrumental in McLaren's domination of the 1988 Formula 1 world championship, with Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna driving the Honda-powered MP4/4 to victory in 15 out of 16 races.
Nichols' inspiration was the McLaren M1A - a ferocious Group 7-spec prototype, and the first race car designed from the ground up by the British firm.
It was powered by an Oldsmobile-sourced small-block V8, weighed just 551kg and later evolved into the similarly designed M1B and M1C, which saw high-profile success in America's Can-Am series.

Testing, testing
Spare a thought for poor Chris Mies, the man who had assorted pieces of kangaroo hurtle through the windscreen of his Mustang GT3 at the recent Bathurst 12 Hours. The German driver's overalls and helmet, never mind the destroyed front end of his car, were covered in viscera. In the murky morning light of the pits he looked like he had stepped off a medieval battlefield. He had vomited trackside after the lap-three incident and later told an interviewer that even two showers hadn't fully removed the stink of the animal from his nostrils.
