McLaren for the road to my eyes appears being it's brief - rear luggage compartment evidently only for luggage that is heat tolerant irrespective of McLaren claims - no foods, lubes or liquids - put any of that up front. Overall luggage space acceptable for short trips. Car acceptably refined for those as well as well as evidently being comfortable enough. Yet having handling of sport car for the road as well as quite enough performance. Fuel consumption seems also acceptable when loitering at a cruise. Looks seem OK. So if a person likes it, why not. As clearly indicated by comments it's similar priced to a Bentley, yet it seems clearly more agile on a bendy road - the question then seems being being, whether person prefers more sportiness and agility ahead of greater refinement and comfort. Or the other way around.

They call it a GT, however the reviewer refers to it as a sports car, and that-s what it is. for a GT an FF or Bentley are surely the machines of choice. probably turn out to be the most useable McLaren and at least it does look a bit different from the rest of the range. as I can afford none of the above I-ll stick to my NSX. :)

I think I would rather wait for the Porsche 992 Turbo S due out very soon. More power? 640 BHP, more sonorous and more character. I bet it would prove to be more reliable as well, from my past 996 and 997 Turbo ownership as well. You can also fit two grandchildren in the back.

In my eyes it is certainly one of the better looking McLaren models. But a GT for me needs to be able to cruise in refined comfort for hour after hour, and I think at that price point, I-d either go DB11 AMR, or maybe a GTC4 Lusso?

Um, put the the heat sensitive items in the front luggage compartment? Yeah, might be annoying to have to think about it, but often you have that kind of stuff separated anyway, and not that much of an inconvenience.

Why bother? Appalling reliability, no Apple or Google play, only two seats, Kenwood Chef engine noise. Why buy the new money mans Vauxhall? Just buy a Ferrari GTC4 Lusso and enjoy!

They should have let the luggage space get a little warmer, 15 degrees hotter and you could sous vide yourself something nice to eat when you reach your desination.

That's a nice car, a bit low though for a sightseeing journey. I'd suggest it would be more enjoyable in a Porsche Cayenne even if not quite so quick!

I wonder why they didn-t mention the fact that this car doesn-t even have the option to fit radar cruise control or any long distance driver aids.

the double carriage compartments are dumb, if you are going to travel you don't carry two or four minibags, you will carry a big one or two
