Can you clarify a long period of time? Been looking for six months at buying a mclaren. I'm aware that low mileage is not the be all however, most of the advertised stock hasn't shifted in that time so would this be a cause for concern?

There's a famous/infamous video on here that mentions that Mac's do not fair well sitting around for long periods of times i.e. a few months or more.

With any supercar, especially McLaren, unless you have a bottomless pit of cash I'd be having a PPI from Thorney all day long. Possibly the best £200 you'd spend.

Unsure what the McLaren PPI options are if you're not local to Silverstone though.

I have bought a lockdown Italian V8 instead though

Dragon Racing are servicing and maintaining McLarens in Dubai. I hear (or used to hear whilst I was there) good things about them.

Interesting. It's more the none serviceable items like gearbox I worry about.

Don't worry about the gearboxes, they're Italian
