Any knowledge or opinions of this car would be very much appreciated!
Not my favourite colour (got three blue cars already!) but it has a decent chunk of Mac warranty left which is a plus although don't quite get the disparity between the registration date and warranty expiry - (12/2018 vs 02/22) - perhaps resold by a Mac dealer in Feb of this year?

Nice colour, has all the must have's from what I can see. From experience those seats are very comfortable but a PITA to adjust, the buttons are in the most difficult place ever thought of and defy logic when you attempt to use them lol.
Good looking car but toppy on price especially without external carbon but not much around at the moment as I'm sure you know.

I don't know that specific car but it's almost identical to my 2018 spider except mine doesn't have B&W but does have external CF. Vega blue is absolutely stunning in the metal. I've heard good things about the dealer although I've never bought from them.

Thanks for the replies, guys.
Yes, I do rather like the interior although more sporty types might bemoan the lack of Alcantara!
Aside from that it's got every option I'd want aside from sports exhaust. I reckon it would have been pushing £200K full retail price when new.
I do like the blue but it is the boring choice considering my recent and current car history!

Same seats in my 540, not easy but not too bad to adjust but with comfort entry it's not a problem. Looks a nice car with the B&W and some interior carbon my 540 doesn't have but it does have full carbon sills which I really like!

570s spyders seem to be hot property.

Back in August 2020 you could get one for £95k, now the cheapest is £110k on Autotrader.

Not bad for apparently totally unreliable cars smile

Or cars that depreciate like a stone rolleyes

McLarens really are great value for money relative to the performance and the general public seem to be finally catching on to this and residuals are definitely firming up.
I have my eye on a 720S when I can retire and commute some cash to pay for it. 30 years service done so its imminent. If I extend and do over 30s I might get into a 720S spider

I started looking for a 570 three months ago before i bought one and there is certainly less on the market now too, by about 40% and a lot of those have been advertised since i started looking.

Only three months? I've been looking for over a year! Mind you, Covid has a lot to do with that - wish I'd been in a poistion to buy early last year when, as you say, there were far more around and prices were lower as well.

Anyway, different car, same question : https://www.pistonheads.com/buy/listing/11005365

Never come across that particular dealer before and not much details on the spec although pictures show it's got B&W and leccy seats (I think) at least. I'd have to budget for a Mac warranty on top as well...
