As the title states I have been thinking about when I get my artura spider in 2025 to ship it to england and then drive around europe for a month.
I have lots of friends and family in england,germany, norway, spain and portugal. It'll be about 8k for a round trip leaving from halifax,Nova Scotia canada.
of course might get cheaper if I had someone to share a 40' shipping container. I was thinking trying to time it with goodwood's festival of speed.
Let's hear what everyone else thinks of this :)
I do have another trip planned from toronto, out to vancouver which is 100% a go I mean once I get the car that is lol

I had friends do it & they all had fun. They also did a track day at Spa. All with their own cars they shipped to Europe. The insurance was the biggest hurdle.

Ask your dealer if you can do a European delivery, then after your trip drop it back to mclaren and have them ship it to your home country. Porsche and some of the other german manufacturers do this. Its quite common.

McLaren has European delivery for our euro friends but not US.

When the date gets closer I'll approach them. I think it would be really good PR if they do, do it. It definitely fit their daily driver exotic car theme they push :)
You gotta mean $8k for shipping the car, not $8k for the entire trip. That sounds like a lot of fun, I certainly couldn't take a month off of work.

yup 8k for shipping, The whole trip I think would be $18k Mind you I have crunched any real numbers....yet :)
