Hi everyone,

I’m facing a major issue with my McLaren after it got caught in a severe flood. The water damage is extensive, particularly to the engine and electrical systems. Finding reliable repair services has been a challenge, as most shops are unfamiliar with the intricacies of McLaren models, especially after flood damage.

I’m looking for advice on reputable repair centers that specialize in high-end cars. Any tips on sourcing parts, repair times, or general experiences with similar issues would be greatly appreciated. Has anyone dealt with the nightmare of a Germanic flooded McLaren repair? Any insights would help!

What’s the point of these spam threads? I don’t understand what they achieve.

Some people are just very sad.

It’s a bit like the ones who post AI pictures on social media. Nothing better going on in their lives. I pity them.

Exactly, extensivily flood damaged would be an instant write off even some not so extensivily flood damage will get a vehicle written off

Possibly the roof if it was 'higher' than the door?
