Uber is giving Captonians free rides in a McLaren 650S tomorrow

Ever wondered what it feels like to go from to be behind the wheel of one of the world’s most luxurious sports cars? Well, here’s your chance to find out tomorrow.

Taxi-hailing company, Uber is on a PR offensive at the moment (for obvious reasons) and it’s gone all in with it’s latest attempt to capture hearts and minds. Capetonians looking to hail a cab tomorrow can request a drive in the McLaren 650S for free between 12pm and 3pm tomorrow.

All you have to do is open the Uber app (download it for iOS and Android if you don’t already have it), enter the promo code “UberMcLarenSA”, toggle over the UberMcLaren icon and request a ride.

If you’re successful, it’s on a first come, first served basis, a driver in the super sleek car will pull up to the location where you requested the ride from and you’ll have the chance to be driven around up to a maximum distance of 5km to your destination.

The car only seats one passenger at a time, so you won’t be able to take anyone else with you.

The McLaren 650S goes from 0-200km/h in 8.4 seconds, which our back of the napkin maths means it could travel from the V&A Waterfront to the Mount Nelson in about a minute and a quarter (assuming there’s no other cars on the road of course). Reason enough to take it for a spin.
