It’s a Merry McLaren 12C Christmas

McLaren has come up with a range of accessories for McLaren owners and enthusiasts from watches to jewellery and clothing. Inspired by the McLaren 12C, there’s everything from a Tag Heuer watch – the CARRERA MP4-12C Chronograph – with carbon based dials and sapphire crystal inserts (a snip at £8995) to a selection of ladies and mens rings, and cufflinks, that McLaren’s shopping site wouldn’t let us see the price of. At the slightly more affordable end of the scale you can opt for a set of McLaren luggage with silver trim (£3950) or a McLaren luggage brief case at £1350.
