Without giving too much away, myself and Mark S will be doing a feature on the SLR McLaren.
The SLR is such a unicorn car that many have never seen one in the flesh, probably never experienced being in or driving one and most dealers and independents would never have worked on them. I was lucky enough to be part of the protoytpe stage, worked in on its production and quality and have since stripped and rebuilt many. I've also driven every iteration of it including some of the later MSO offerings.
Because of that, its something that I can babble about quite naturally, but what I may consider relevant may not be of any interest to many people, so I thought, is there anything that anyone would like to know about it? As part of the feature, I would like to include or answer some of the questions that would be raised. Perhaps you have watched a couple of you tube videos where something has been covered but then wondered why?
Whatever it is, include it here and we'll see what comes out in the wash at the end. What I wont do is answer anything until its finished, so dont expect immeadiate answers here...!!
Over to you.
