Mclaren have absolutely shafted not only their dealers but current owners, the depreciation is utterly tragic!

And? Are they supposed to just halt progression and let the car collectors’ un-driven car collections silently appreciate, or keep on pushing the game forward, make the best cars they can and attract new buyers that way?

They seem to have chosen option two.

Loads of YouTube car channels doing walk arounds of the Geneva cars. I guess they’re still being launched at the Geneva venue with just private access to them?

I think a lot of this work was done before but just held under embargo.

There's a PhD in sociology to untangle the supercar company paradigm of "produce something desirable in low enough quantities so as to not annoy the majority of your customers for whom having something desirable that is unavailable to others is a greater draw than actual performance"

Clearly the route to ultimate profitability and customer satisfaction is to produce no cars at all.

If I ever have the opportunity to buy SSO a pint I'll ask his opinion. :)

i think they need to produce one, but there obviously needs to be a waiting list for it.

Well come on Foz, how about using words to explain your displeasure?

Didn't Chris Harris mention the six figure depreciation on a nearly new Macca?

I'm not sure I like McLaren LT's. Apart from the original of course.

The Ts aren't L enough.

Incorrect. 675LTs are great.

I didn't say they weren't great. ;) I said I didn't like them. Not LT enough.

I know, and I'm saying that your own opinion on what you like is incorrect. :-D

I’ve done a complete 180; the 720 doesn’t photograph well but actually looks rather nice (ok, purposeful) in the fresh.

I like the 765 LT a lot (and also the 675 LT).

MP4-12c is nice also but 458 > MP4-12c
