Calling MP4-12c Owners

[CaterhamVVC]

Anyone know if there is a 'go to' forum/Whatsapp group specifically for 12c owners. It would be good to connect directly with 12c owners. My LT owning friends have various groups that help them specifically so wondered if there was similar for the 12c (outside the generic Mclaren forums like this one)

Join the McLaren Owners club and get access to the regional Whatsapp groups. Covers all Macs not just 12C tho.

Check the 12C section on McLarenLife, that’s probably your best bet. A lot of the proper owners clubs, like the McLaren Owners Club, also have WhatsApp groups once you're a member might be worth looking into that. There's usually a link floating around in the forums to request an invite to the specific 12C chat.

Thanks for the advice - I note the Mclaren Owners Club says it uses Facebook as its primary tool for comms - which is a problem for me as I don't wish to be a Facebook user. That's my problem, but it's why I have assumed the Club is not going to work for me.

I didn't have a FB account when I bought my first McLaren. I only created one because I wanted to join MOC.

Obviously it depends on your reasons for not wanting it, but I find it fine. I don't use it like "FB" - don't bother linking with friends etc. - I use it to simply access car forums, the same way I do a web browser.
