Red and Blue wheel nuts are because they are different threads, as on most race cars one side is Left hand thread, this prevents the wheel nuts from coming lose. having worked for Mclaren I have been in the real LM, on a mile long test track we went from 0 to 160 mph back to 0!!!! the noise inside was very very loud. ear defenders were needed, but what a ride... :-)
Thats a carbon fiber air intake. The intake manifold is under it at top of engine. Technically these have exhaust headers due to their construction. No exhaust manifolds for this high end beauty. Good video thanks.
I have the TSM McLaren F1 LM and I honestly believe it's the BEST 1/18 Scale McLaren. The details are simply better than the AutoArt version in almost every way. Particular the rear exhaust area, the interior and the front grills. ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE. The ONLY downside is the side luggage area doesn't open, but no big miss. Hope this helped anyone debating between the two!
Tsm doesn’t have the fit and finish of the autoart signature…. Not to mention the racing variants have accuracy issues, incorrect brakes no flares and incorrect colour
thanks for the great video, this is exactly what I needed to see. just ordered one. I checked out some pictures of the rear of the real car, and it seems like the panel around the exhaust tips is actually a carbon fiber panel, not mesh like on the road version. Also, the exhaust tips are supposed to be black I think. anyway, thanks again!
For your first video, guys, this is fantastic. When I saw it in my recommendations I taught yeah... another guy or guys that pretend to do a review but do nothing else than being amazed for 20 minutes of how "really cool" or "really nice" the car is, without telling anything technical. I really like how you two interact with each other, both of you having his personal yet objective opinion. Also, the filming angles are great, along with the way that you catched the car details on camera. I could really see what you are talking about 😄 The single thing that I would recommend you, but this is my personal perspective, I don't know if others would agree with me, is that you document yourselves a little bit better about the car that you're presenting, since as you said, these models should mirror the real cars perfectly. I haven't seen your newer videos yet, but I will surely do, as I'm very curious of how you've evolved. Maybe you'll have sometime the opportunity to present real cars, who knows... 😁 All in all, very nice work guys, keep it up! I would give you a strong 9 out of 10! 😄 So shame that you have only 697 subscribers after 3 years...
Hey, thank you so much for the comment and advice! It means alot to us to know that you're enjoying our content! We unfortunately have very limited time to do these vids, hence the long lead-time between each release. The point about comparisons to real cars is interesting; we'll have a think about it! This channel is just a hobby for us; we've done zero marketing for it. Still, we're happy for our viewers to spread the love to other diecast fanatics! :)
Love the model an love the way you guys analyze the details. However, what mesh are you talking about next to the rear exhaust? I do not see any mesh on the real car, please edit :) ( 1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZcYRNZR9-IA/UfiCyaWg3nI/AAAAAAAAApI/a6OcD_tCQdY/s640/IMG_2379.JPG ) Also, this model has working suspension.
The coloured center locks on the wheels are there for racing. When they have to change tires in the pits, they know where which tire go where
Oh cool, thanks. Mystery solved!
the color is to separate left and right hand thread not because they are for "racing" lmao

We're super envious! Yeah we can imagine the noise to be intoxicating and deafening. So how many McLaren models do you have?
@@HandsOnDiecast I have about 20.... but mainly F1 cars, :-) We had to buy all the models as Mclaren never gave much away!!!

Bought one based on your review. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you found it helpful!
Fun fact: I used to have a Chinese-made McLaren F1 stereo while its tyres are the speakers LOL
That's hilarious, doubt it'll do 240mph though :)

Oh we've not seen the TSM version before, but this makes us want to see one IRL.
@@HandsOnDiecast haha, well if you're ever in San Francisco, let me know, I'll let you check mine out!

@@TheWretchedWorld Yeah I got the TSM and it's not perfect but for the price I think it's great.
Carbon tubes on top of the engine are the air intakes....

love this model, one of my favourite...nice channel btw
We love this model as well! Fan of your channel too, you have an amazing collection!
Hands On Diecast thanks a lot ;)
The first model company which came out with this exact model was 'UT models' which latter became part of the AutoArt family.
Thanks for sharing that tidbit of info! We've got some UTs in our collection too but not the McLaren F1 LM

McLaren f1 greatest exotic ever made hands down..
Which is the best model between this LM or the road car?
Got myself a adrenaline program version last year :) absolutely love it
Awesome! That livery is really cool
Excelente. Ya poseo esa maqueta muy detallada.
I Bought One Based On This Review, Keep It Up Guys!
We should get a cut from Autoart! :)
i like the representation. hope you do more video. i like your concept.
Thanks a lot, can't wait to show you guys more from our collection!
Fun video, better in this format, more natural. Devil IS in the details.
Thanks for the feedback! Really appreciate it
Autoart really nailed the exhaust on this one. Too bad they dropped the ball with those crummy headphones.
TSM definitely did a better job with the headphones!
Thinking. Of getting the Aston martin Vulcan , recommend a make thanks .
We'd get the Autoart. As far as we know, the rest of the brands selling the Vulcan are all sealed models which we're not fans of.
I just got this and mine has the turn lights in the front both orange white on both sides 🤦🏻♂️ no hood magnets either.
That's odd, maybe a QC issue? Sorry to hear that.
Any link to buy this beauty?
Best bet would be eBay?
Or try googling who the local Autoart distributor is in your country?
Ever heard of AMALGAM DIECAST 😏
Love the model an love the way you guys analyze the details. However, what mesh are you talking about next to the rear exhaust? I do not see any mesh on the real car, please edit :) ( 1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZcYRNZR9-IA/UfiCyaWg3nI/AAAAAAAAApI/a6OcD_tCQdY/s640/IMG_2379.JPG )
Also, this model has working suspension.
Glad you're enjoying our vids! I think we were talking about the mesh below the rear spoiler that allows you to peek in and see the exhaust manifolds.
The interior is not accurate the real car has a ton of switches and buttons. see real video you will know what I am talking about.
It's not a perfect representation, but overall, we both think the model looks great as a whole! :)
5:56 Where's the luggage? :)
The LM didn't come with luggage, only the Autoart F1 road cars did. :)
