Keep in mind, even with all windows closed and the stupid “ISG” turned all the way down, the car runs at 70db even at 30 mph with the sports exhaust. That’s not an environment for even casual music listening. So forget about the stereo upgrade and just raise the engine volume by putting the backlight down....

The one up for £94,995? 16 plate blue one?
If so, that’s owned by a good friend of mine . He’s got a 600lt now. I can highly recommend it, his cars are always maintained to the highest standard.
It’s a very very nice car

I know of a Volcano Yellow Spider which is coming available, fantastic looking thing. Current owner has had it for three and a half years, well known car in the UK Owners Club.

My 650s spider will be up for sale soon. All the options mentioned. Ice silver, which is a Mclaren Elite colour which appears from silver to light blue.

Sounds like a great colour.
I might be in the market for one in the next few months. I have been jumping back and forward between the Aston V12VS, 570S or GT and the 650S. A little concerned over all of the McLaren tales of woe (probably no different to any of the top end, low volume car manufacturer though).
Are you trading in, where and what's next?

I can only comment on my experience with Mclaren which has been excellent. Car has been fantastic, Mclaren Bristol have been outstanding, only had one fault in the two years of ownership, a door catch which was replaced under warranty at Mclaren Bristol, where I bought the car from. Only considering selling due to change in business circumstances due to Covid. If I sell I will be looking for another Mclaren later in the year. Would highly recommend the 650s spider, but It is getting harder to find really nice RHD spiders with less than 10k miles. If you are looking in a few months feel free to contact me as I am in no rush to sell and have not got it advertised so may still have it.

I had a 2016 Aurora Blue car but it had the sports exhaust I’m sure? Original Reg ended in DND I think

I know this car, absolutely immaculate. It was a dealer demo at Bristol i believe, fully spec'd with lots of options! Sorry GRD if this is creepy lol, but i do know your car very well! If/when you do chose to sell, the buyer will be very lucky.

Thanks, Yes that is the car, you recognised it off very little information.

Yes, I remember the car as it was very unique, i was working in another Mc dealer at the time and I had many prospective customers mention that car to me, whilst looking at the car i was selling.
