New McLaren 750S Le Mans celebrates '95 victory

30 years since unforgettable F1 GTR win at 24 Hours marked with limited edition 720S

---

There was no way that the 30th anniversary of a McLaren F1 winning the Le Mans 24 Hours was going to go unmarked. It was simply too momentous a victory, the road car that was never really meant to race claiming the greatest win of all, to not be commemorated at every occasion. Especially now, almost exactly three decades on from June 18th, 1995. 

There have been McLaren Le Mans Editions before, like the 650S; now the 750S gets the LM overhaul. This time around that means a cool High Downforce Kit from MSO, which brings a raised rear spoiler with endplates plus a bigger front splitter for 10 per cent more downforce. McLaren also suggests, as you might expect, that the HDK echoes ‘the famous McLaren F1 LM editions’s aerodynamic additions’; more familiar nods to an iconic sportscar racing past are the five-spoke wheels and Le Mans Grey paint just like the #59 Ueno Clinic car of 1995. Arguably McLaren Orange makes for the cooler-looking supercar, but for full Le Mans tribute a 750S probably should be in the grey. 

Additional kit for the 50-unit limited edition includes a roof scoop, F1 Gold brake calipers with a red McLaren logo, a titanium exhaust tip, the louvres in the carbon front wings and painted Le Mans branding. No mistaking it for a regular 750S, that seems guaranteed. But for those who really need to push the status of their 750S Le Mans, a host of extras are optionally available, including a tonne of Gloss Visual Carbon Fibre outside (as well as the underbody), a Track Brake upgrade and even a track record plaque for the front luggage compartment. In case the interior dedication plaque isn’t enough.

“The 750S Le Mans marks not just 30 years since our debut victory in the iconic race but an exciting time for the brand with McLaren GT3 EVO cars competing in this year’s race and the announcement of our return to the top, Hypercar class in 2027”, said McLaren’s Chief Commercial Officer Henrik Wilhelmsmeyer. He added: “This exclusive 750S is the first McLaren Le Mans edition since the F1 LM to feature HDK aerodynamic enhancements and is set to become one of our most sought-after supercars, with previous Le Mans editions of the 650S and 720S commanding a premium over standard models.” He’s not wrong there - when we wrote about a 720S LM last year it was still a £200k proposition. Given the HDK cool and the significance of this anniversary, you wouldn’t bet against the 750S being even more desirable in years to come. Expect those 50 fortunate folk to pay more than £300,000 for a Le Mans.

For a car which has only been on sale for less than 2 years, there seems to be an awful lot of 750s for sale on A/T ( 24 vs 35 720s ).

I guess they have to do something to try and shift new ones....

[British Beef]

Fixed rear wing, 5 spoke alloys and the roof scoop are the best improvements to my eyes.

I think these additions make it look more resolved than standard car.

[Motormouth88]

Looks like every other McLaren that’s rolled off the line in the last 10 years

[ChrisCh86]

Yes please, that looks fabulous. I'd much rather have this than the equivalent Ferrari.

Will depreciate like a stone though, so I think I'd rather have a nearly new 750s instead though for a lot less

[GTRene]

looks pretty cool to me.



from the side you even not see the big air/cool inlets which look also pretty cool in this picture

Looks properly special that. Love the wheel design.

That does look really nice in that colour scheme, wheels really suit it

[simundo777]

Not normally a big McLaren fan that looks incredible. Those wheels are mega.

[RandomCarChat]

Big want, looks mean.

Don't think wing is fixed.

[BOR]

They've made a mess of a great car, there.

I'm bored with those wheels now, bored with that orange paint.

Pastiche.

[Jon_S_Rally]

That's lovely, though I wonder if it might look even better if the wing was mounted an inch or two higher. Still, a fabulous thing. Not sure if I'd want grey or orange, both look great.

If you're blind maybe.

[Glenn63]

Yes please, il take mine in orange. Love a dished wheel.

[garypotter]

I am not a big Macca fan but do like the look of this one, in clear lacquered carbon no chintzy pained bits, love the roof scoop and the wheels, copies of the 90's Jap modified scene

[V41LEY]

Yawn.

[MDL111]

would love a grey one - cool looking car

Think they're a nod to the McLaren F1 GTR/LM's 18in OZ wheels

[s94wht]

Stunning machine

[LotusOmega375D]

If you buy the grey one McLaren will give you a complimentary knob extension.

[The Pistonsdead]

Rather splendid
