Videos of the McLaren Factory.

This is from their semi-new site.

This is arguably one of the nicest McLaren videos around.
It really doesn't focus so much on the cars, but the building itself. It's 8:22 long, but its very nice and gives you a great look at where the F1s and SLRs are built. It also resigns as a small Museum for the McLarens.

This second video is very short, but is of when the Queen toured it on its grand opening day.

If anyone wishes to read up more on the new building, here's the website.

McLaren Automotive is also creating a new site for automobiles.
It'll be opened Spring 2006, but the site has a few neat pics.
Refresh it to get different openings. There's 4 versions.

Sorry if it sounds like advertising. Saw this before, but finally felt UCP should see it.

Lo, they are as gods who work there.

It really is like a Bond villan hide-out. I think the lake retracts and the massive death ray pops out.

and Ron *IS* Blofeldt :D

From next year Alonso will be his pussycat being stroked on his lap.
"No Mr Alonso, I expect you to WIN" :D

Clearly the current drivers refused to comply !!
