We look at 12c/650s and 720s Values and how low can they go??

Bought a 570gt from Thorney last January..had to have a new battery but nothing else..done 2 trackdays & 4000miles..great driving cars.

I picked up a white 12c coupe last month and couldn’t be happier.
Nights before I know I’ll be driving it the next day are pleasantly sleepless.

650s for sure, if you haven't watched it go watch Harry Metcalfes video on his 2000 mile road trip with his MSO 650s, and then his 6 month update. Apparently V Engineering have their own Accumilators which have valves fitted so once they are fitted (£300 a corner) then they just re-gas them every 3 or 4 years when the pressure drops to 4 bar or below which is way cheaper than completely replacing the OEM parts everytime

Tried to buy GT3 but brushed off by dealer 6.5 years ago so bought Macca 570 Spider. Absolutely love the car for both bimble about driving but also hard core track work. Had new front springs last year from Thorney (but fitted by V-engineering). Service costs pretty reasonable and after 15, 000 miles no real issues. For sure a few electrical gremlins but “alt, control, delete” fixes most things. Bodywork “rust” and cracked door hinges all done under warranty no issue at Ascot. She’s a keeper alongside Ferrari Cali T, GR Yaris, M240 cab and Rangie. All do different things superbly 🙃

Love this type of video, thanks Richard

Great video Richard, that 720s spider in orange with that interior is just perfect for me, one or two more kitchen fits am I kidding 😂

My choice of the 3 featured cars in the video would be 12C as the original modern McLaren ‘genesis’ car.
Amazing value for money and also
a softer, possibly more elegant design than the later cars.

[neillgowans]

A post 2020 720s is possible the best value secondhand supercar of all time. Hypercar performance, Porsche levels reliability in later models and relatively low cost. I would have one in a heart beat if I had the money. Not in orange though. Suits darker colours. 😁

650s spider. I'm on my 2nd. Now with Thorney and V-Engineering on side they become practical and realistic too. Its mostly down to your personal taste. If money is no object a 675LT spider, but they're double the money. Full carbon body, double again. However, any McLaren is epic fun and made to be driven. Watch all Thorney, JayEmm and Harrys Garage driving reviews. Always insist on a PDI inspection by above independents. Enjoy!

[deepee]

need a lot more independet garages to halt the prices a lot of stuff on the cars and are no much different to any other high end see where or how high prices for work is really on the money for it comes to styling is often

[junkoandnigelwates]

Could never afford one but great value

[tm]

MP4-12C has the best sound and the connection to the P1. Its also the ultimate value bargain - just make sure the previous owner(s) specced it right & looked after it! I love mine

[gtnyc]

675lt spider! All day. I’m biased obviously but such a great car

[MarkB]

600LT spider is the hidden gem for future values

[bluetitan]

Somebody has the dress/posh shoes on 😉

I think you are right Richard, the 720S will more than likely have a good bit more money
to drop, before levelling out.

Out of those three, it would be the 650S, only thing being I'd be bringing along my Monopoly money
to buy it, they seem like a greta buy if you can afford a bit less than £100k on such a car.

As others have already said, Harry seems to be more than happy with his recent purchase of one.
Looking forward to the video, if you decide to go for a McLaren 👍

650s is the sweet spot in terms of value. Recently missed a 2014 spider in orange, 18000 miles, full carbon for £72k . Was mint full ppf and been under mcl warranty it's whole life.

Unbeatable value-

[smiffyLevel]

Yes 650S all day long, I prefer the front end in particular over the 720 as I really don’t like the headlight design.

[BubuBarong]

650S Spider is the sweet spot! It's "Thorney", not "ThornLey"! Cheers from Italy! ❤

12C is a fabulous car, owned mine for 3 years and 16k miles and was an amazing touring car. 650s better in terms of reliability but 12C classic looks. 675LT is pick of the bunch. After p11 cars I'm not interested. They had digital dashes are less analogue and not as reliable or pretty. Value wise can't beat a 650s. Running costs of my 675LT over 5 years and 15k miles have been minimal, last service way under £1k at V engineering

[sidrens]

650s all day long!!! I put that second to the P1!!! Coincidentally, Frank designed both 😊
