To celebrate 50 years of building cars, McLaren has released a video showing every car, road-going or racing, that the company has produced. They've captured this 50-year history in just 40 seconds. Beginning with the very first car that McLaren ever had a hand in building (an Austin 7 Ulster race car), each subsequent McLaren car flashes across the screen, ending with the recently introduced 650S.

It's particularly interesting to watch the evolution of the company's open-wheeled cars. For McLaren, this starts with the M2B in 1966 and goes right up to the MP4-29 being prepped for the 2014 season, not to mention all the championship-winning cars from the 1980s and 1990s—although the Marlboro branding has been stripped from the iconic racing liveries. McLaren's successful Can-Am cars are also well represented, and the video concludes with the latest breed of road-going cars to wear Bruce McLaren's name, like the gorgeous F1, which Sam Smith recently drove, and the $1.15 million P1 hypercar.

It's interesting to note some of the more peculiar aspects of McLaren's history, like the M7A, with its front- and rear-mounted wings, and the McLaren gravity racer. If you can't find the latter, it's just a bright flash of yellow mixed in among the modern F1 cars at about the 0:22 mark. Check out the video and see how many cars you can spot and/or name.
