McLaren Automotive ‘s new production center, which is currently being built at the company’s global headquarters in Woking, UK is now almost two weeks ahead of its construction schedule, after only eight weeks of work, according to the company's chairman.

We’ve approached the MPC planning and construction programme in the same rigorous and detailed manner as we would start a Grand Prix season or as we’ve managed the research, development and launch of our new McLaren Automotive car company,” said Ron Dennis, Executive Chairman of McLaren Group and McLaren Automotive.

"Moreover, we’re already almost two weeks ahead of schedule on the MPC. The construction programme is yet another reflection of the passion of everyone at McLaren for the company to be the most innovative, most successful, and most respected sports car and motorsport business in the world, both now and in the future,” the executive added.

The center, which will be the MP4-12C’s nursery from next year and will also bring future McLaren cars to the world is being built through a 40 million pounds investment. It will feature a landscape-friendly integration and will use energy saving manufacturing technologies for the cars it produces.

I’m pleased to be able to say that 2010 has been a fantastically exciting year so far at McLaren. The successful start to the MPC build programme follows our global launch of the new sports car company in March and a winning start to this season’s Formula 1 world championship for our Vodafone McLaren Mercedes Formula 1 team,” said Dennis.
