Not at all, I just read about the restoration of it by McLaren Special Operations. Apparently it was featured at the Goodwood Festival of Speed earlier this month. What a car.

As promised, pix from Saturday's Get Yer Hands Dirty session of the Capital Triumph Register (CTR) -
installing a triple Weber manifold & Carb setup on a member's TR250 -
to the final moment of firing it up successfully! (Replacing the triple Stromberg carbs It came with originally).
members drove up in various cars from TRT3, TR7, our TR8, a Jag convertible, Lotsa TR6s ...

I'm sure I could talk the missus into one of these.
Very cool -- curious how it performed versus before the Weber swap. Back in the day it was tricky to get the Webers tuned for a specific swap, but I imagine today it's pretty to find the info on forums and via AI.
Hopefully an electric fuel pump and good fuel filter are part of the mod. My Weber motors were always happiest when fed surgically clean 104 octane fuel at a constant 3 PSI. I only had one set that I couldn't get right without too much trouble. They were for my overbuilt 100 hp, 1760 cc 356 Porsche motor and it had the dreaded mid-lean condition. After changing fuel jets, air jets, accelerator pump nozzles, accelerator pump cams, and making every adjustment multiple times to no avail, you get to change the emulsion tubes and start all over. I still love 'em.

I would also like to see the exterior.

This model is among the very few BMW models I like.
