I really really really want an official McLaren steering wheel or one of them sweet carpets that are in some pictures of the factories.
Does anyone reckon that maybe the factory or whoever would ever maybe make a few more of these items if we asked em'?
I know sometimes that you can buy a steering wheel etc off ebay but i want one from the factory damnit. Just one of my many endless thoughts of the beautiful McLaren.

Everything is possible, but I think you will have a big challenge getting a "new" original! :uhoh:

Maybe if all of us fans attacked the factory at once with letters of request maybe they will crack.

ask them for a free car. and when they finish laughing, ask them for the carpet or steering wheel. they will be amazed by your humor and be more than willing to give you something cheaper ;)

:rofl: Those mats look a hell of a lot tidier in the photos than they do in real life!
Anyway, Cars haven't been based at Genesis for years. You might find what you want elsewhere on that map but I ain't telling you where! :p

Well certainly not to break in and steal stuff! :grinno:
I wouldn't be surprised if the decision was made to auction off some of the old crap in a few years time. There will always be a need for things like windscreens but there comes a time when storing parts that are never used becomes uneconomical.
