What you have suggested is the 1989 MP4/5.

The information & photos posted are for the 1988 MP4/4. This car has already been suggested.

Please alter/update the post to reflect the thread title.
 
You still need to change the pictures, they are of the MP4/4.

I think these pictures are of the 1989 MP4/5. The MP4/4 driven by Senna in 1988 had the number 12 on - the year Senna first won the WDC. The picture of Senna & Prost coming together at Suzuka was in 1989.

I made that post when the pictures were still of the MP4/4, the OP was edited 5 hours ago to suit the thread title.

Also, I know the difference in the 2 cars...
