Looks lovely to my eyes (no silly tail spoilers etc) and @ 160K I think it’ll sell like hot cakes

Looks the biz, please buy me one.
Not struck on that colour mind..... I think I'll plonk my 160k elsewhere this time.
Wait until they have made a few, sold less than a few, and then offer stupid PCP deals on the unsold few. That’s their MO.

Nice looking car, unfortunately no spaniel room!
Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
The "spaniel pod" is on the side! McLaren think of everything!Originally Posted by oldoakknives
Lovely 70's throwback to the bronze Ford Granadas, the sweeney anyone?
Looks amazing, sure the performance will be phenomenal as well but it stinks of depreciation
It's definitely looking like the best road car they've made so far, but the front end is still too odd. The DB11 is much prettier.
Looks like a Tesla
Reminds me of the honda nsx......giving my age away lol.

I’d take a 600LT over that. McLaren do seem to churning these cars out quickly with facelifts or revisions. Would need to see it in person to see if I really do like it or not.
Which version are you on about?
The first one, around mid 90s....... I didn't realise they built more

I'm lost by all the different McLaren models around now. Seems to be a new one every few months, Omega style.
There is a YouTube video to this effect , the crux being the depreciation caused by the ‘latest’ model devaluing the former. Unlike Say Porsche where models run for many years McLaren have much shorter development cycles.
The original, the one you are talking about, was much sleeker than that.The first one, around mid 90s....... I didn't realise they built more

Knowing Honda, I bet no built quality problems with this one.There is a NSX model out now, I did see one on Sunday at the Aston Martin meet
Think I'd prefer the Ford Granada.

The car looks amazing 💯
It's not an MX-5 though, is it?

I’d wager the MX5 will be more fun to drive too.
Does it come with a tow bar? Got to hook up the trailer for tip runs

You need a proper car for that!

Looks very much like the Aston Martin in this thread

Wonder what a comparison between the two would reveal. Anyone up to the task?
Odd comparison. One is a gt with the load space of a 5 series, the other isn't.Looks very much like the Aston Martin in this thread

The comparison is obvious. Don’t be daft and rely on the spurious loadspace argument, which is McLaren’s faux justification for yet another version of the same old, same old.
Lovely car to drive and play with but don’t fancy the ownership costs..
Anyway, I prefer classic cars where you get the smell of oil and petrol, the sound of the exhaust through the chassis and that daring feeling of having no airbags!
...and in many cases brakes to speak of
Fas est ab hoste doceri
With you all the way
You don´t nééd to go points ignition, no brakes etcetera with a old classic. You can go retro and still enjoy the increased relative safety of a modernish car. The omnipresent MX5 and the MR2 offer a very well engineered basis to which you can strip the car as it leaves the dealer as your hearts desires.
Most of it is even free; chucking weighty things costs nothing!!
Remove the pas, take the airbags out, remove carpeting and sound deadening, change to a anywhich less-muffler and off you go. Foxy has a ´classic car´MX and I am underway with my MR. Took the charcoal canister out and can sometimes smell a whiff of petrol and have some castor oil (not Castrol R) left to add to the next full petrol tank ...
Few weeks ago a friend dragged me to a car auction........ They had a few top end cars but I could not believe......... They had a p1 in the auction.
