Well folks my 2021 McLaren GT was delivered from Romans International to my home in Plymouth in an enclosed trailer foc on Friday last .
I'm delighted with the car which is virtually mint inside and out , and having just sold my Lamborghini Huracan , I can say that in my humble opinion the GT is quicker than the Huracan by a fair degree , particularly in the mid range punch .
Anyway to the point .
I've been ploughing through the manual until I reach information overload .
In the Huracan , I used a couple of SD cars with my favourites for music entertainment .
I've transferred the music on both cards to a memory stick .
I have installed the stick in the USB socket situated in the arm rest , but the infotainment system refuses to recognise it let alone play its contents .
I am a dinosaur when it comes to IT .
Where am I going wrong , any ideas ?

Yeah 600hp turbo is quicker than 600hp n/a, because it has a fuller power curve so higher average power 
It's do-able but fiddly, I have it working well in my 570GT.
I think the memory stick has to be formatted as FAT32 for the car to read it. Unfortunately, most versions of Windows won't let you format a stick above 32GB as FAT32, even though it's perfectly possible; I think I downloaded a third-party app to format the memory stick properly.
What memory stick do you have, and what format are the files you're putting on it? MP3 files work, I think it can do a few other audio formats as well.
