Warehouse full of brand new 720's

[theplumber]

So what is going on here, there has to be 40+ cars in that place. Could it be as simple as they are waiting for export or is it just McLaren making far too many?

If these are unsold stock I'd be very interested in McLarens business model.

Only one person knows anything about McLarens and their residuals.

No doubt he'll be along soon.

I thought this but if they are being shipped within a few days why have them all on trickle chargers?

[Glasgowrob]

boat load to the Middle East make sense to ship them all together could be a few weeks between ships

Indeed.

And you’re welcome.

There's an awful lot of cars on the runways plus a tag for Ontime so its a specialist shipping location

I'm amazed that McLaren actually prepare shipments like that, I thought they would just send one car out at a time on it's own boat when somebody wants one, like all the other manufacturers.

That's not quite correct, many manufacturers send out in containers. Containers get sent in batches to a warehouse who then secure them into various containers for various destination. The picture might be of a week worth of cars for several countries.
Batteries need to be disconnected (hence no trickle charger) as well as the tank being completely empty (of both petrol and vapors)


ETA read again the post above, i might need a parrot
