UK PRIME MINISTER DAVID CAMERON VISITS Mclaren to OPEN BRAND-NEW Mclaren PRODUCTION CENTRE Media Information EMBARGOED: 12:30.GMT, 17 November 2011 UK PRIME MINISTER DAVID CAMERON VISITS McLAREN TO OPEN BRAND-NEW McLAREN PRODUCTION CENTRE Ron Dennis (Executive Chairman, McLaren Group and McLaren Automotive) outlines McLaren's ambitions for 2012 and beyond Just like our racing cars, the McLaren Group never stands still – and you may like some of the pioneering new directions we’re taking. McLaren is more than just a builder of beautiful and successful Formula 1 cars: we’re a relentlessly competitive entity, bred on high-performance and determined to bring to market ground-breaking products and solutions that are set apart by their top quality and dependence on totally unique and highly innovative steps in performance. To take just one example, we’re poised on the verge of a hugely exciting automotive programme with our high-performance sports car, MP4-12C. And today’s visit to McLaren by Prime Minister the Rt Hon David Cameron MP is a statement of intent: that we’re committed to building a homegrown sports car manufacturer to take on the likes of Europe’s and North America’s giants. But that’s not all. Through everything we do, we’re absolutely dedicated to fostering the rebirth of one of Great Britain’s industrial cornerstones: beautiful and meticulously crafted high-tech industrial design and manufacture. Design and manufacturing have been at the backbone of British industry for more than 100 years, and are activities that we as a company not only passionately believe in, but consider of primary importance to the future economic growth and recovery of the United Kingdom. It’s a philosophy that is at the cornerstone of McLaren Group chairman Ron Dennis’s view for the future of the Group. He said: “Through everything we do, McLaren strives to find the solution. “We never stop. We exist to go faster; to be state-of-the-art; to innovate; to perform with belief, flair and passion; to be the absolute best at what we do. And everything that McLaren is has been built on the founding principles of good design and solid, seamlessly efficient engineering and manufacturing. “Since the dawn of the industrial revolution, great minds such as George Stephenson, James Watt, Matthew Boulton and Isambard Kingdom Brunel have brought tremendous and justified acclaim to Great Britain via their relentless innovation and restless desire to deliver societal benefit. “But, in the UK, there has been an over-reliance in the past on the financial and service sectors. Now, industry is realising that Britain’s grand manufacturing tradition is a solid platform upon which to build – and I want the McLaren Group to play its part in the crucial recalibration of UK plc. “I’m delighted that the Government is embracing that initiative too: we need to encourage young people to embrace the STEM subjects, by which I mean, science, technology, engineering and mathematics. “This should not trigger the abandonment of the arts – of which I am also a keen patron. However, I firmly believe it is the role and duty of British industry to offer STEM graduates the appropriate destination jobs – the provision of a worthwhile career path that ensures that our brightest scientists, technicians, engineers and mathematicians aren’t lured into finance or banking – simply because they feel that engineering cannot compete to offer equal satisfaction or reward.” As Ron Dennis’s words make apparent: our vision is clear, and the means by which we achieve it are rich and diverse. We are proud that McLaren is a British industrial icon, but there is more to us than you may imagine… Vodafone McLaren Mercedes The historic cornerstone of our business, a household name within the UK and one of the most prestigious brands in world sport. With 175 grand prix wins and 20 world titles achieved by a roster of talent, including our world champions – Emerson Fittipaldi, James Hunt, Niki Lauda, Alain Prost, Ayrton Senna, Mika Hakkinen and Lewis Hamilton – our Formula 1 team has rightfully become one of the most famous and established in the history of the sport. 702 grands prix, 175 grand prix victories 12 drivers’ championships & eight constructors’ championships Six grand prix victories so far in 2011 with our drivers Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button You might be surprised at what we’re doing next: Completing a four-day technical test in Abu Dhabi with Gary Paffett and Oliver Turvey Freighting spares and chassis to Brazil for the final race of the 2011 season in Sao Paulo Preparing build-work on next year’s car, MP4-27 – we are nine months into the development programme and have already stored 18,918 individual components from more than 3,000 different works orders and signed off more than 5,500 technical drawings. For more information, go to www.mclaren.com/formula1 McLaren Automotive In the past decade, McLaren Automotive has become a ground-breaking British automotive powerhouse that is successfully taking on the giants of the European, Asian and North American sports car market. McLaren Automotive intends to become renowned not only as a premium automotive brand, but also as a high-volume high-performance sports car manufacturer with the presence and range to co-exist and compete with the most established supercar brands in the world. The creation of what was then the world’s fastest ever production car, the 1994 McLaren F1 Manufacturing and assembly-line expertise with the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren becomes world’s highest-volume 200mph-plus high- performance sports car – 2,153 units built MP4-12C – the world’s most advanced high-performance sports car – is launched in 2011 MP4-12C is hailed by critics as “the most complete supercar the world has ever seen” (CAR magazine) and “the most capable supercar on the planet right now” (Pistonheads) What we’re doing next: Officially opening the Foster + Partners-designed McLaren Production Centre Rolling out 35 global dealerships between now and the end of 2012 Preparing our works and customer GT3 racecar operations for their first full season of competition in 2012 Working on the design of a range of game-changing high-performance production cars whose launch will take our annual production to 4,500 cars per year by 2014 For more information, go to www.mclarenautomotive.com McLaren Applied Technologies McLaren Applied Technologies successfully mines the rich seam of accumulated knowledge within the Group to resolve a diverse and fascinating series of third-party technical projects and collaborations.
