FIRST LOOK: Tuthill GT ONE – Road Legal '90s Le Mans Car!
The Tuthill GT One is a sensational street legal tribute to 1990s Le Mans racing, and only 22 of these all-carbon GT1 homages will be built. Cooler than a GT1 Strassenversion? Possibly. It’s street legal, and for what’s almost certainly a seven-figure sum, you can have one of the few examples that Tuthill plans to make. But there are a couple of critical options you must choose between – namely, do you want a seven-speed twin-clutch gearbox, or a six-speed manual? A 4.0-litre naturally aspirated flat-six related to the 911K’s screaming engine that develops around 500bhp? Or a twin-turbo version that kicks out more than 600bhp? Tuthill says the GT One was born out of a chat between company boss Richard Tuthill and one of his clients, Elliot Ross. What would a modern-day GT1 car look and drive like? Can it still be pretty while incorporating FIA-spec crash-worthiness and road legal measures? Apparently so. Very much so.

FIRST LOOK: Porsche 911 GT3 — What’s New?
Not one but two new Porsche 911 GT3s are upon us, both a regular be-winged car and the more subtle Touring model. And for once, the headline news isn’t the power, the peak revs or the Nürburgring lap time, but how practical it is. That’s right, because for the first time in the 25-year history of the GT3, it’s being offered with back seats. It’s only for the Touring, but that addition alone will be enough to start The Internet chattering about whether this is ‘all the car you’ll ever need’. However, if kids, or at least taking your kids with you, isn’t your thing, then worry not. The back seats are merely an option, and the non-Touring GT3 can’t be had with them at all. Plus, if you’re the sort of Porsche purest who hates weight, you can double down on that ethos with either a Weissach pack for the GT3 or a Leichtbau (aka Lightweight) pack for the Touring. As for what else is new (and there are a lot of detailed, GT3 RS-inspired changes) then join Top Gear Magazine’s Associate Editor Tom Ford, for an in-depth walkaround of both new GT3s with Andreas Preuninger, Porsche’s Director of GT Cars… Subscribe to Top Gear for more videos: http://bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear WANT MORE TOP GEAR?

The NEW McLaren W1: A worthy successor to the F1 and P1? | Henry Catchpole - The Driver's Seat
The McLaren W1 is following in some pretty illustrious tyre tracks, because the McLaren F1 and the McLaren P1 are both icons of the supercar landscape. But when it was unveiled the W1 didn’t seem to create quite the buzz you might expect, given the company’s heritage. Henry Catchpole went the McLaren Technology Centre to talk to the people behind it and do some investigation. What he found was a car that has true Formula 1 expertise baked into it and should be pretty incredible to drive. With all 399 already accounted for at a cool £2million (before options) each, the W1 has arguably done all the impressing it needs already. But as a halo car, it should make those of us that can’t afford it dream about being able to afford it. We should long to just see one in the carbon and 3D printed titanium. One of the reasons that it hasn’t yet made people gasp is that a headline power output of 1257bhp isn’t really that extraordinary for a hypercar in 2024. Until, that is, you realise that all of it is going just to the rear wheels. That makes it much more interesting. Then there are the looks, because at first glance the W1 could be considered a replacement for the 750S rather than a wild Ultimate Series car. But there are reasons for the way it looks. The first is that its complex aerodynamics are based on the principles of ground effects, which means it rather hides its aero light under a bodywork bushel, so to speak. Then there is the fact that this is attempting to be a genuinely useable supercar on the road as well as a blindingly fast one around a track. That means seating two people properly. As such it has to look a little more conventional than something like an Aston Martin Valkyrie. But make no mistake, this car has a crazy amount of downforce. McLaren has genuinely put Formula 1 knowhow into it. For a start, Robin Algoo whose brainchild the aero concept is, worked as an aerodynamicist in the F1 team from 2010 to 2016. McLaren could have quoted a maximum downforce figure of 1298kg or 2862lb but as that’s only available for a fraction of a second under high speed braking, the decision was instead taken to quote the 1000kg that is available in a sustained way under high speed cornering. The engine is also completely new, the suspension has 3D printed titanium elements, there is a heave spring at the front and, just as importantly, hydraulic power assistance for the steering has been retained. The interior features a new material called InnoKnit (which conjures up images of F1 Mechanics getting the knitting needles out in the pits in their spare time) and even the instrument binnacle is aerodynamic. So, which would you have in your dream garage? McLaren W1, the Bugatti Tourbillon, the Ferrari F80 or something else? Let us know in the comments down below.
