If you’re an owner of a McLaren and want some assurance that if something goes wrong with your pricey sports car it’ll be covered, McLaren has some good news for you. The company announced that it will now offer an extended warranty that will protect your McLaren for up to 12 years from the date of manufacture. Previously, McLaren owners were only given the option to extend the factory three-year and unlimited mileage warranty to seven years. Extending the warranty does cost extra (though McLaren didn’t announce how much), and can be purchased in increments of 12 to 24 months.


If you happen to have a McLaren P1, we’re afraid this warranty isn’t available to you. It only covers Sports Series and Super Series cars, which includes vehicles such as the
570S,
MP4-12C,
650S, and variations on those models. For people looking to purchase a McLaren with this warranty, it is only available for new, and certified pre-owned McLarens that are under 10 years old and have driven fewer than 100,000 miles. The warranty also only covers problems that are not considered general wear and tear, misuse, or abuse. Aftermarket parts and upgrades also aren’t covered.


McLaren isn’t the only supercar company to offer lengthy warranty coverage.
According to Business Insider, Ferrari announced two years ago that it would offer extra-charge extensions to the standard three-year warranty for up to 12 years as well. Ferrari also sweetens the deal on new models with a seven-year service program.
