Used McLaren Cars for Sale from £78,390

Used McLaren cars overview

McLaren, which out of Grand Prix glory created one of the greatest road cars of all time — the 1993 F1 — has since then been a thorn in Ferrari’s side with a lineup of sexy-looking, ultra-fast V8-powered mid-engined supercars. However, McLaren still, somehow, lacks the cachet of Ferrari, so used values are softer, and early reliability gremlins still plague the brand’s image.

FAQs

Do McLarens hold their value?

No. Unless you’re talking about a rare, limited-run McLaren such as a P1 or a Longtail, McLarens suffer from much harder depreciation than an equivalent Ferrari or Porsche. Then again, that makes them tempting second hand purchases…

Are McLarens expensive to maintain?

Yes. McLarens are highly-strung supercars that need very careful, and specialist, servicing. Their all-carbon construction means that they’re lighter than the competition, but that makes any damage seriously expensive to fix, and electrical issues are common.

Are McLarens good investments?

No, unless it’s one of the ultra-rare versions. If you’d bought a hybrid-engined McLaren P1 in the mid-2010s, you’d be sitting on a gold mine right now, but more regular models — such as the 720S and 570S — depreciate very heavily.
