First McLaren, £90k budget, torn between all the options at this price point.


12C - Cheapest to buy, I like the looks, and the idea of the funky suspension. Is McLaren's first car the biggest risk with regard to having problems? They say newer models are more reliable and better built. Being the oldest car, depreciation should be the lowest?

650S - Limited choice at this price point. Looks great and should be a better version of the 12C.

540C - I like the simplicity of this car, and the prices are slightly cheaper than the 570, but perhaps not cheap enough to warrant the 'lesser' car.

570S - Good all rounder, lots available. More reliable and cheaper to run than a super series car?

570GT - My first choice I think. I prefer the looks over the S, and the extra luggage space is a big appeal as is the softer suspension. May feel like I am missing out by going for a sports series rather than super.


The obvious answer is to go out and try them all for myself, but I was hoping to hear the opinions of others first, chances are a few people have had the same dilemma as this price point covers a fair few cars.
