LHD, ex McLaren automotive? Press car? I imagine it's well taken care of but driven hard. Still seems like good value.

I don't, but it seems to be exceptional value for money
Not my favourite colour, but could live with it

They do seem to sell off their press cars cheaply ?!

I guess if its on the qualified programme its had a lot of reconditioning work done to it but even so that's a bargain for a European hoon car

For a car that has been trashed around by journalists it is still far too expensive.

I would suggest that they have been clumsy with the wording on VAT as the car is also on the McLaren site @ £168k....

Huge bargain if it's at £130k with a McL warranty!

My initial thought was its PLUS VAT as its VAT qualifying and that would still be one of the cheapest cars out there but the ad clearly says including VAT.
Like you say its obviously a typo now. Just when I thought values were going up rofl

Even +VAT it would only be £156k... though you are probably right in that its a pricing error. Seems way too cheap.

You can get a RHD 2015 car for 165k, so 10k under is about right, no?

If their prices are before VAT, then the 2 2016 cars will be 196k or so, which isn't far off what you could have bought a brand new RHD car. Surely these prices include VAT?

No wonder you thought they were cheap

Even VAT is an optional extra. You get it as part of the "Shafting pack".
