Since much of warehouse contents are irreplaceable, i.e. the paper drawings, and the very high value of the other items, McClaren likely self-insures. They could field a complete F1 team with what insurance premiums would be. It's a safe bet that they have the most advanced fire detection/suppression system(s) available installed in the facility.

If Bruce McLaren could see the amazing complex his team became, he'd most certainly be amazed and so very proud. Sadly, teams created by racing drivers have all but disappeared, like Brabham, Surtees, Fittipaldi, and of course, Stewart and Prost. Regardless, now there are only two teams founded by the so-called "garagists"; Williams and McLaren, while all the others are branded with compaly names. Well, I suppose Ferrari falls in the first category as well!

Mclaren should offer that as part of a museum tour. I would go to the UK just for that. Fantastic video!!!

there's only one thing wrong with this video - it's not long enough. 3 years in the making, should make it 30 minutes. awesome content nonetheless, you got a new subscriber

Top work!

The amount of history in that warehouse is just crazy.

This is the place since i was a teenager i was hearing about and seeing pictures of McLaren Unit 2. This place is simply amazing. The history of McLaren gathered in this warehouse with some amazing historic cars from McLaren history. Parts to see with such an excitement. Goosebumps only thinking i could be able to visit this place as a massive McLaren fan. Thanks for the video. One day maybe i will be able to go there and witness all these amazing cars sleeping there. I Could literally work there for the rest of my life.

This channel is just so different from anything on the internet, it's really special!

This ware house reminds me of the video that lewis and jenson done where they both drooled over 1 of ayrtons race winning cars that was in a warehouse just like this, it was a pretty cool video tbf. Great video as always 👍🏻 it was definitely worth the 3 yr wait. 😂😂

Honestly one of the best videos I have seen this year, mega job! 🧡

Absolutely fantastic, thoroughly enjoyed watching and learning more about McLaren heritage. Thank you. 🙏

Great video ,nice to see older f1 cars cared and brought back to life ,these are cars we remember and watched when we where younger ,many thanks for sharing this video

I visited Williams heritage and had a factory tour.Dickie was in charge at Williams heritage. Such a knowledgeable guy.. mclaren have lots of storage facility’s around Woking. The SLR STIRLING MOSS slr etc are kept there. We used to mot them every year…

Excellent work as always, matt 👏 I'm so jealous , thanks for sharing 😀

It’s not a secret warehouse . It’s on Albert drive sheerwater Woking. The old mclaren factory. It’s the unit round the back .

this video deserve milions of views so intresting and you spended so much time

amazing! great vid

Simply stunning stuff!

Respect. Thanks Matt Amys for the unprecedented content ❤

How there isn't a McLaren museum, is beyond me!!

What a beautiful video, thank you.

EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT work Matt 👍👍🏁

I saw can-am and Indy car as well. Wish they were mentioned.

Visited there a few weeks back. Mind blowing place 🤯

This video earned my subscription

This was amazing 😍

Thank you Matt & a big thank you to McLaren for opening the doors !

Amazing!

Love it dude

Piers Thynne looks so much like his Dad, Sheridan! 👍🏻

Can you imagine the value of the contents of that building? I hope they have a good fire suppression system to protect them.

A garage full of history. That is the place I would most like to see. No MTC, no garage during the f1 race.

When he says customer car he means Ron Dennis as McLaren had to mortgage this car collection to pay him off.

No, he means customers. A lot of cars are sold to wealthy people who run them. McLaren's collection never got remortgaged. It was only ever explored as a possibility

sick stuff

They should open a museum. So many great cars.

Senna and the HONDA MP4s are my favorite! I only have TAMIYA plastic models but I'm quite satisfied with them. Well I wish I was in this house though...

Nice one

Amazing

what did it smell like in there? I bet it smells 98% motorsport haha

Hope they have a good fire and theft prevention system. I always hate seeing those polysterene tiles in archives because they spread fire like ceiling petrol

Not the “caution wide vehicle” sticker on James hunts car 😂😂😂 what a great joke 😂😂😂

VERY VERY COOL!!!!!!!!!!

What an experience 🎉

10 hrs in, 10k views and just now I realise; 100k subs!🎉

Ahhh I bet those blueprints smell just lovely

Wow amazing, my favorite is the MP/4/6 Senna and Berger

Thanks

“Secret” yes.

Dickie Stanford at Mclaren? Last time I saw him he was at Williams!!

Damn this is so much than a car storage!

You must have some sticky fingers with all those pies you keep on poking! keep up the quality content

If this is McLaren’s, imagine Ferrari version.

Objectively speaking (yes objectively), MP 4/6 is the best car ever made, if F1 cars are the pinnacle of all racing cars. It is: 1. The last car to win the F1 championship with a manual gearbox 2. The ONLY F1 car to win the F1 championship with a V12 engine 3. Senna's last championship winning car

Didn't dickie standford work at Williams heritage..

Odd seeing Dickie Stamford in McLaren colours. Thought he worked at United now. Zak moved him across 🤔

Would McLaren have a 1972 Can-Am M20 anywhere in their facilities? I never see that model in any historic races or displays.

When did Dickie Stanford go to McLaren? Who is in charge of the Williams Heritage Team now?
