Anyone have an outlook for old Sports Series range?

I'm not the best person to ask about the car but noticed on the AT Price Tracker plugin that the car was listed originally at £89,490 for a day before been increased to £92,990.

Might help in any negotiations.

I am looking to get it a smidge under the previous asking price.

Hey guys,

I think I have found the right car, could I have your input please: https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202402176...

Thank you!

I like the look of that. Only other comment I’d make is that it’s fitted with P Zero Corsas …. You’ll probably want to factor in replacing them with something half decent as they are not a great tyre.

Good to know haha

Looks good to me.

The spec is fairly 'typical' for what you'd find on a GT, but not really missing anything important.

Reg is BF19 UMC based on https://www.parks.uk.com/mclaren/used-cars/1745890... . Interesting that it seems to have been over in NI, although I don't think that's a concern. It's only covered 200 miles in the last 6 months, and 1000 miles in last ~2 years by the MoT history, but not that unusual I guess.

Price looks good value to me especially for approved used.

Thank you mate, I am just looking for best value car really as I will probably only have it for a year and just want to experience owning a "supercar".

Nice car and price; for ref I paid about the same for a 17 reg, similar mileage and spec in July last year. Just goes to show that seasonal premiums are real!

Few little things to check; make sure the A pillar trim doesn't rattle and hasn't had any material lifting/creasing near where it meets the dash. Likewise, do a check of the rear deck trim and make sure nothing's loose there or broken from careless mechanics removing trim! Pull the seats forward and do a check of the bulkhead trim as well, just to make sure there's nothing loose/rattling. Check the lower sills on the doors where they shut and connect with the chassis for any rub/wear that might highlight door misalignment.


Check the wheels haven't been touched-up in any areas and have been refurbed; getting your hands on the touch-up paint seems to be tricky!

Also something I wished I'd pushed for is to see if you can get 2 years warranty as part of the deal instead of the standard 12.

Best of luck!

Looks stunning to me. Official warranty, titanium exhaust panoramic roof and ceramics. Cant remember what year ceramics became standard but I know not all GT's had them.

Also bet you end up keeping more than a year...I said the same and cant see myself selling soon

this car has hung around for a while (listed on AT since July last year) - anyone know the history? Is it not selling because its black?
