I live in a rural part of the countryside. The small local lanes are muddy during the winter. I am used to having muddy cars including Ferraris, Astons etc.

I have not seen any muddy McLarens. There is lots of talk about PPF being vital and almost a deal breaker in terms of spec. Any pictures on here of the undersides of McLarens have been absolutely spotless; more like operating theatres than usable cars.

Any experience from rural living McLaren owners?

Go for a 2013MY with lift (front and rear) plus PPF and you should be fine! driving

I live in a rural area and to get to our house my car has to travel down a muddy pot farm holed track. I tend not to use the car if it is too mucky as it just makes more work cleaning it but the underside is full covered so aside from ground clearance issues (same as any low sports/supercar) over large holes, which I drive around, there is no issue whatsoever. I have driven the car in all sorts of weather conditions and its always been fine. I also mange to pick my way down the same track in my Exige Cup which is even lower...
