We recently parted with our 765LT Spider and I just posted the end of term report.

Great car just a victim of hard garage math.

Overall a wonderful ownership experience with many fond memories.

P1 seats are indeed perfect for LT McLarens thumbup

Much more practical than the Senna seats.

Good content as always. So you kept the 675? What was the rationale for keeping that one over the 765?

Quite simple, the 675LT Spider is my faovrite McLaren. I think its the best car they have produced.

May I ask what it does better than an Artura?
Standing Quarter seems to be a dead heat, maybe a LTS would struggle with an Artura Coupe.

For civilised travel the LT seems a bit like my 964 RS daily memories. Ultimately, just too connected beyond 30 miles range.

Its not a statistics difference, it is a driving feel and engagement difference. It one car that really shrinks around you and instills confidence and trust. Its a much more pleasant place to be than a 911 GT3 RS, useable for long road trips, and utterly feral when you want it to be.
