If you don’t mind me asking what is the guaranteed future value at 24 months?
158k
I used to warm up my MP4 for approx 5 mins, always did the trick. Might have to go and try a 675LT but all signs point to a 570s for me. If anyone is looking to px one in pls give me a shout, happy to purchase cash straight away.
Ps how are people finding the Senna seats for all the 6 footer plus owners out there?

I was pretty worried about the Senna seats when I sat in them in the show room, I thought they were too narrow across the shoulders and too much of a squeeze for "normal" driving or more day to day driving. However, after an extended test drive (30 mins) in a car with them fitted, they were absolutely fine and I barely noticed them.
They're a bit more of a pain to get in and out of as have a higher sill and you sink right down in to them, but other than that, they're surprisingly comfortable given they look like a bare shell when you look at them

I think best to test drive and determine for yourself.
I happily commute in the 600, less than 30 minutes journey time.
I would not be as happy in the also amazing 570.
Senna seats are more comfortable and the carbon structure is a work of art in itself.
I would not consider a 600 without the senna seats.
Also they reduce the car weight by c.15 kilos which is handy and this time of year.
If you ride road bikes then I’ve found a correlation with cars. If you prefer / comfortable with cervelo, pinarello, etc you will prefer LTs, GT3s, Speciale, Pista, etc. If you prefer a more standard bike, the standard car is probably more suitable.

I agree with you on the short journey time. I love just to drive the thing no matter how short.I happily commute in the 600, less than 30 minutes journey time.

Strangely, I didn't get on with the LT when I was given one for the afternoon, not didn't get on with it, it was just that bit firmer and noisier in the cabin than the 570 but I get it now, I'm really happy with it.
My view on the seats is different, I prefer the P1 seats. At a push I'd have taken a car with the Senna seats but I wanted the P1's and thankfully a car came up that had them.

You hit it 100%, more than anything currently on the market, the 600 is the ultimate “driver’s car” - precise, powerful, visceral...if you love driving this is as good as it gets!...

The Senna seats do have a sense of occasion and no doubt !! In Touring Size they suit most body shapes, the Standard ones though are a tight squeeze across thighs and shoulder. Difference is only in the padding though.
I am in full agreement about the no cost option of the P1 seats, they are very comfortable and in Touring size very easy to get in and out of.
The 600Lt is a prolific track car and anyone buying one needs to try it out on a big circuit like Silverstone to really tell what they are capable of.

How do you chaps find the handling over dirty streets, specifically potholes and bumps, any easier or less comfortable than say a 570s?
Very compliant. The nose lift is a must have for more aggressive speed humps.
There are 3 suspension settings and I generally use the medium setting.
The softest suspension is similar to the 570.

It is better than I expected in soaking up the bumps. I would say that Normal suspension setting in the 600LT is somewhere between Sport and Track on the 570. My arse must be calibrated differently to Ronnies.

I've been surprised by how comfortable the 600LT is compared to my 570S - the main difference is there is more noise and vibration rather than the ride itself being much harder.First 600LT below £140k? Seems like very good value.....
