Which is rather the point . Volume , high price and they dictate the flow

No I think maybe a few on here think there’s a special VIP section upstairs for themselves and pals. It’s not heaven unless it has a VIP section don’t u know. In fact not a bad idea creating a VIP section within PH for them so they don’t have to chat to us rif raff

You’re right and it’s a crying shame. I silent a day in a friends 600LT at Spa and they are incredible drivers cars. It’s unbelievable that they have theses issues when the product is fundamentally very good.

The 600LT you enjoyed at Spa wasn't a Cerulean blue one by any chance with Senna seats and all the Carbon options.

Interested in your comments on how the 600LT drives on track Ravi? Cheers

The outstanding thing for me JC was the front end of the car. The turn in is increable and the car feels really nimble, very stable under braking as well. You can pretty much stand it on it's nose and break almost to the apex without the back wanting to run away from you. It is boosty through and you do feel it on the road, but in fairness GT3's are a bit lack lustre below 4000 RPM where the come on cam as you no doubt know. An old school GT3 is more exciting steer as there is more for you to do, but for outright pace and for the current 2nd hand prices, there isn't alot that woudl live with an LT. They just need to resolve the reliability issues.

Taffy the car I drove was a grey colour - similar to Agate grey, owned by a good friend of mine.

600LT is on the short list for me, one day.
Ideally it'd be a 675LT - but those aren't going to come down in price anytime soon - whereas the market on the 600LT is softer and they made a lot more.

Perfect weaponry for track usage - if you can make them reliable and have some good after sales support from the aftermarket. Not sure there are any specialists that look after McLarens, akin to a 9M, 9E, RPM or JZM - other than TMS.

There was a stunning 675LT in the adds section a couple of weeks ago..It was in a Papaya orange with just 3k miles and a relative bargain at £195K, if you have that sort of money lying around which i most definitely don't..
I agree with you Tyrone and hopefully there will be either of these in my garage in the foreseeable future.

Yes there is tdt,thorny motorsport,they have picked up a fair bit of work at sensible costs,only a matter of time before others spring up.End of the day its only a car that any good motorsport set up can sort out,they are even repairing gearboxes now,so dont be to frightened off.I had a lt for 3 years.

That’s the caveat T, if you can make them reliable and have some after sales support - at least from the manufacturer- they would be a fantastic track car as Ravi mentions when they are fully functional they are quite some device.

For me, those question marks even if you avoid the most savage portion of depreciation would put me off.

I suspect many of us at some point may find it hard to resist however and as I’ve found out over the years old Yellow does not buy a duff motor car.

Anyway, most of my services are Indy anyway. Which brings me to a good point made by TDT:

chaps do we know roughly what price the slate grey Touring sold for at JZM a couple of days ago?

Agate Grey.

Don't know what it went for... I think it was on for 165k or something like that? I actually wish i had followed my mind, and placed an offer on it.
I didn't like the Red dials, and it had comfort seats where ideally i'd want LWB buckets.

[R5OHH]

Apparently almost at asking, so a strong price given it didn't have buckets and PCCB's. There is just something so special about a Touring.

is there ?

[Twinfan]

Not to you, as we know, but to others? Yes.

I'd love one.

[PS2018]

ah agate not slate of course!
dials easy to change?
thanks for replies so if it sold at £165k are we saying its about a £30k premium to a manual winged steel brake car of similar mileage? (ignore colours and seat type if you will)

Who knows, who cares, but certainly enjoying my 'rather cheaper' Touring (with spoiler...) :-)
