Respect to him though- he's done 40,000 miles in it! It's hardly something he hides away in a garage!
Good article on the rebuild in Classic Car Magazine. £4.70 for a mag for one article is ridiculous tho so I read it in Sainsbury's! 
He was determined to keep it unarguably the same car so refused to let them build a new chassis for it and had it repaired instead. For which they dug
out the original jigs from storage.
According to someone I know who used to work at Mclaren, you can still get a new one built if you're willing to pay enough.... about £7mil!
Cheers,
James
