RaginBull Report post Posted May 12, 2012 Hey, I just got an email from FC Kerbeck in Jersey. They took a McLaren MP4-12C in on trade. I know there aren't many around so I figured I would let any interested buyers know. I'm driving there in a few mins to see it in person. http://fckerbeck.ebizautos.mobi/detail-201...?photolist=true Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also know of two owners that are having a lot of problems with the cars, one of which is putting his car through the lemon law process.

RaginBull Report post Posted May 12, 2012 Are you going to test drive it? Probably not. I don't like to test drive unless I am really interested. It seems too tame for my liking. I prefer cars that look and feel like nothing else. But, I am putting in my order for the 700 roadster. I love this car that much. ;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be too tame for you though as you said, but it would be good to hear how you like it and how it compares to the LP700.

It may be too tame for you though as you said, but it would be good to hear how you like it and how it compares to the LP700. That would be cool! I may test drive it depending on when it sells. I plan to head there in a little while. I would come back to test drive it during the week when there are less people around. If it doesn't sell first and I can make it over, I will.

MasterShake Report post Posted May 12, 2012 I saw four of them at Mclaren of Newport just the other week. Given their volume, I assumed there wasn't a waiting list.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VBUGKING Report post Posted May 12, 2012 PA local dealer offered one year, 5k mile Cap with no more than ten % depreciation At turn in time. Sounds like a pretty good deal, how can they guarantee that? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCJR Report post Posted May 12, 2012 Sounds like a pretty good deal, how can they guarantee that? They will put in the sales contract. They want to get cars on the road and I think they are gambling by letting some roll out the door at a pretty good deal to gain exposure.

Peloton25 Report post Posted May 14, 2012 I had no idea so many were available. I thought they were back ordered. Each McLaren dealership keeps two demonstrators - the few times I've been to Beverly Hills the other cars in their showroom were pre-sold awaiting delivery. Some of the dealers have ordered extra cars they intend to sell to the 'gotta have it' crowd for a premium which may be the case with any inventory you find. Like any car there will also be a few where the depositor backs out. Each dealership also seems free to set their own price on those extra cars - where most of the ones ordered by a customer have been sold at list price. I've heard very little in the way of complaints from anyone in regards to their treatment by the dealers. In fact the only one that sticks out was a customer in Texas who was concerned with a portion of the sales agreement that gave the dealership first rights on buy back should the customer want to get out of the car. He ended up signing it and taking delivery after all. >8^) ER Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cake Report post Posted May 14, 2012 Local guy bought one. Was very frustrated with communication & customer service - it was delivered 8 months after promise date. He tracks it but he's not the best driver so it's hard to tell anything about the performance. He had a lot of issues with sensors . When the error message displays he could not receive any other instrument info. He bought it from McLaren Philadelphia and thought he'd have to send it back via truck - but to their credit they sent a crew to make a house call. They fixed his car. He is quite satisfied. The blue wouldn't be my choice but its much nicer in person (photos don't do it justice) and has lots of depth and metal flake. I asked how they were selling and the sales manager said "quite well". He said so far about 40 have been delivered in the U.S. ....and YES - those are HIS cats' paw prints on the hood.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

capt_chaos Report post Posted May 14, 2012 Going on pistonheads classified there are 21 physical cars for sale whereas there is one aventador for sale which I don't think is a physical car. 80% of the cars in the UK (according to a premium car reseller) has been subjected to at least two recalls. The famous Ron Dennis attention to detail is showing up to be a myth. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
