Lurker turned owner

Been reading the Mclaren forum here for a while and searching/waiting for a Mantis green car with track pack. Gave up waiting and have now taken the plunge and agreed a deal on Lantana Purple 570S.

I think the 570S represents good value for money at the moment.

Spec includes plenty of carbon, track and security packs, B&W, and the usual bits and bobs.

Thanks for the positive comments chaps. Much appreciated!

That is lovely congrats! Really like the track pack cars the interior with the buckets and extra carbon and Alcantara is spot on...I have my autotrader alerts filtered for the 570S but I don't remember seeing that car advertised where did you buy it from?

Same here. I actually went to this dealer to look at another car. That sold just as I pulled into the car park! The key lesson for me is that the best cars don't actually end up being advertised. Pot luck I stumbled over this one. When the deal all goes through 100% I'll post up details. I can thoroughly recommend the dealer.

Big congrats on your purchase - epic car in a stunning colour.

There is nothing out there to touch a McL for grins per £ in my opinion - enjoy

Thank you.

Agreed!

Yes! I’m pretty anti Facebook so that element bothered me. Set up a new email account but somehow it’s suggesting ‘friends’ I know. Will probably delete the account eventually and rely on news letters.

I’ve not posted anything yet. I’m going to wait until the car is on my drive.

But very impressed with the work that’s gone into the club and the general atmosphere.

That's absolutely stunning, congratulations!

I hope you got a discount because they took photos with the lift up

Oh man. I missed an opportunity there. Although to be fair to the dealership they did apologise for the photos!

Ahahahah unfortunately you're right, lift is as good in avoiding bumps as good in making the car look horrible when on.

I’m not taking offence and it was a fair point well made. But horrible is a little harsh! 😜
