This smart little 50cc, single-cylinder, automatic, Vision 50 NE50 was painted in Marlboro livery by the McLaren paint shop in 2003 as a gift for Lorina McLaughlin.
At that time, the lovely Lorina was the owner of the ex-James Hunt, World Championship-winning McLaren M23 which she raced in Historic Formula 1 events over many seasons.
The car was prepared and run from the McLaren Factory in Woking by McLaren personnel so they were enthusiastically involved in the project as the Team themselves did not own an M23.
The little Marlboro scooter whizzing around the paddock became almost as well known as the McLaren itself around UK and European circuits.
