Sell your McLaren – from the 12C to the Artura

For the warranty from the Certified Pre-Owned program, yes: according to McLaren, it passes to the next owner in a private sale. For the Artura, McLaren stated at its launch that the warranty, roadside assistance and service benefits are transferable. For other models and for an Extended Warranty, it’s best to ask your McLaren dealer, who knows your car’s papers. Send us what you receive on this, and state the end date of the warranty.

At the Artura’s launch, McLaren announced a six-year warranty on the hybrid battery, limited to 75’000 kilometers; for the rest of the car, a five-year factory warranty applies today. So in the form, state the date of first delivery and the mileage, say whether the charging cable is included, and take a picture of any hybrid system messages on the display. You’ll find general information on cars with a high-voltage battery under Selling an electric car.

Yes, say so openly in your request: how often, on which tracks and whether brakes, tires or suspension parts were replaced afterward. Invoices for this help. McLaren also makes a precise distinction here: the warranty in the Certified Pre-Owned program covers track driving only outside of competitions, and only if an authorized service center inspected the car before and after. If you have such inspection reports, send them along.

Yes. If a lease or car loan is still outstanding, the sale requires the amount needed to settle the contract. Ask the leasing company or bank for it as of the planned date of sale and enter it in the form, together with the name of the contracting party. The guide Selling a financed car explains how the settlement, purchase price and papers fit together.

Yes, including the limited-edition models that McLaren lists as Ultimate models. With them, every detail counts: state the delivery date, the factory equipment and all work by MSO, and include the invoices. McLaren treats some aspects of these cars separately: the powertrain-only Extended Warranty is not available for Ultimate models, and exceptions apply to them for the warranty in the Certified Pre-Owned program.

Yes. At McLaren, the option of an Extended Warranty ends as soon as the car is 15 years old or has reached 120’000 kilometers; no such limit applies to our purchase. Without a running warranty, the offer relies mainly on records: service invoices, major work on the gearbox or suspension, new tires and brakes. The guide page on high mileage has tips for cars that have covered a lot of kilometers.
