I always thought that W1 reg I have on retention might come in handy one day (for someone not me)

Crikey that’s quicker than the Moto GP bikes on the home straight I think. They do about 310-320, he was at 330, yikes!

Stunning looking car, and it sounds like it lives up to the looks.

Genuinely surprised about a lot of the comments in the PH Review - many people saying it's incredibly ugly. I know the Senna wouldn't win a beauty contest for a lot of people, but this looks amazing - think I even prefer it to the P1.

I prefer the P1 to this one, but I would rather have this than the Ferrari. In the end I would probably pick a 918 or a Carrera GT over all of them.

It’s absolutely stunning.

Way better looking than a P1 and aren’t many cars I’d have over this bar a Zonda.

Maybe it will grow on me, but while admiring the engineering it represents, and for sure it relegates everything to date from other manufacturers obsolete, it has no appeal at all as a sports car.

Ben Collins floated the question, is Artura the best car McLaren have made? and I really wonder if he has a point.

Neat, tidy, clean lines, V6 (inherently balanced) 1400kg dry, 700bhp, Socially acceptable package.......

I've been very disparaging of the looks since they released the images but suddenly seeing it moving on the videos and it looks amazing. OK, probably quite colour sensitive due to all the bare carbon parts but I'm sure MSO will be accommodating.

Better than a P1? Visually a tough act to follow but they've given it a bloody good shot and this sounds like a much better car.
