Thanks MAC. I think that is going to be a deal breaker, I don't think I will be able to get it on my drive!

The R8 scraped and that was about 7 if memory serves me correctly.

5 inches in total clearance is quite a lot. I have a very steep drive / small bridge to get onto my property. I don't have any issues.

Thanks Mac, R8 was 6.3.

I don't think 5 will cut it. The dealer is calling me this morning, I will check the details with him.

I guess it's a bit more complicated than just height? Is there any difference in the distance between the very front of the car and the front wheels for the two cars?

I don't have exact measurements but visually the 600LT certainly looks longer at the front.

Yes it is the ramp angle that is important not the simple clearance height. What do Audi quote?

Evening all, looking for some advice.

I’ve never financed a car before and am not sure on how it works but a McLaren main dealer just piqued my interest.

New 600LT Spider, £30k down, 6k miles per year for c.£900 per month over 2 years with a GFV. I presume the key sits with what the GFV is at the end?

Any advice is welcomed.
OP what’s the purchase price....if it’s RRP it’s a good deal if it’s current market price I am not 100% sure

I got offered an initial deal on a 600LT of £20k in and £1500 per month, so your deal seems far better

I also got offered a deal on a 570S at £15k in and £1k per month

Both were on 2yr pcp deals. Given the high GFV you would be handing the car back as I would think what’s owed at the end of the term will be far higher than the real value of the car

Be interested to know what other deals people have been offered as keen to get into a McLaren if the price is right

I’ve just singed up to a 600LT spider deal, good spec factory build, P1 seats, interior and exterior carbon packs and security pack

24k deposit
24x £800
6k miles per year

I will just hand the car back at the end. It will be far less financially painful than my last 18 months of my 570 spider ownership that I paid cash for. I never usually finance cars but I’m far happier knowing my costs up front.

That seems an outstanding deal for an LtS.

Is that a new one? Or stock?

Anyone want a 540C? hehe

What GFV have you been quoted? Is this available at all dealers or is it a special deal?

Which dealer is this with please? Am looking at an LT at the moment but would be keen to get in to a spider if I can - mainly for being able to lower the rear window to hear that exhaust! lol

Do you lose your deposit at the end when you hand over the car?

If not, it is an awesome deal!

That sounds an absolutely cracking deal - I know exactly where you are coming from re: knowing the costs up front wink

Does anybody know if McLaren dealers are offering pcp deals on pre-owned cars?

If they’re not offer a pcp deal I would be very careful.

If they can’t predict what there product is going to be worth in two in three years no one else has a chance!
