Well

IF it is true, could think of MUCH WORSE scenarios (SP) I guess. Swallowed by a big non british corporation would be one.

Interesting to see if the quality goes up with the famous Ron Dennis attention to detail and if the price goes up accordingly...

mmmmm interesting thought even if it is not true!

Hope they sell the Tivs for the same sort of price. The Typhon is now the Maclaren Triumph, 69.99

Can we have a sensible debate rather than something befitting a creche?

Would be interested to know the reliability of this info given the huge number of rumours flying around at the moment.

A direct purchase by McLaren has never featured on the horizon before...
