    Here is the truth about my McLaren 720S and what happened to it. It's a disappointing end to what could have been a great car! I do know some of these problems could have been just applicable to my car and maybe I was unlucky. I didn't go into all the details of everything that went wrong, there were quite a few more! Make sure you watch till the end of the video!

    It would suck if it turns out that all of the people that got a 720S early was treated as some sort of beta testers for McLaren, for that amount of money people need to know that they are getting a fully functioning product.
    I have seen 675LT´s driven hard on track whitout problems so this is not good PR for McLaren, would have been better if they delayed the release of the car untill everything was sorted.

      Handfart McPantypoop yeah. please Mclaren dont be like these video game companies that fuck us over selling us half assed games. they need to take their time or at least tell the customers hey if you are getting an early version then you might run into this or that.

      I was expecting this to happend : New engine and new chassis leads to new problems. I understand now why Tim Burton (Shmee150) didn't order one. It's like the MP4-12C : it had lots of problems but the 650s solved them. I think the next car using this engine/chassis would be more reliable

    I ordered my 720S in February this year and got it end of May 2018. I have seen this video for the first time in the anticipation period around March or April 2018. At that time I didn't precisely understand what you mean. But now, after 7500 km in my 720S I know EXACTLY what you were speaking about.

    You may not be somebody suited to buying brand new models. Part of the ownership of exotic products is that they have quirks. Perhaps you should just buy a GT3 and be happy with it. Also, it took 10 minutes to say 90 seconds worth of thoughts. Why do you drone on about nothing for so long? You could have spent that time SHOWING some of the fitment problems, or the software hiccups.

    • @DoctaM3
      @DoctaM3 7 років тому +11

      In the US, this is the main issue. Their resale values are through the floor. They are producing a ton of cars & introducing new ones so fast, they end up balancing the growth of the company on the backs of their customers who take the brunt of the depreciation. Tough place to be for sure. That and the quality issues have kept me a bit away sadly.

    Hey Anishvin,
    very very interesting clip - thank you for your words!
    i am usually driving AMG for al long time and love it !!
    But somehow i got to Mc Laren and had a first drive in a 570 S coupe.
    The experience was not that what i expected.
    It was not special, solid and fast enough. breaks felt strange and the turbo leg was massive big under 3000u/min.
    additionally i did not feel really save & secure at high speed; in strait line or cornering.
    The car was just not laying as good on the road as i expected it honestly to be.
    Mc Lare did want to check it afterwards and tell me about any possible problems.
    Got no answer , but anyway
    --- soo i came to the 720 S!
    Thought that this will be my dream car in every kind of way.
    From design to performance, driving, handling - to everything.
    The value of this money for a car should be felt longer as you described!
    I hope it will stay for the next long years ( test-drive nearly in 2 weeks )
    My question to You is:
    How was your impression fro the 570 S, and compared to the /720 S .?
    Did You just gave it away cause of your problems or was the fascinating factor not so high as you expected it to be in longer term after the first week?
    Even TGE gave his away after a short time.
    This scares me now...
    But i just read that you still got it :))
    Makes me feel happy somehow :()
    Would be really really great to hear from You!!
    Greetings from Germany

    Reliability is always #1. I'd rather have a ugly basic car that never lets me down than a Supercar with reliability issues. Other reviewers have said the Aventador is not reliable so it is off my dream list also. Would MUCH rather have a Huracan Performante than any Aventador variant.
    The biggest deal with McClaren is the scarcity of service centers/dealers. If the closest one is hundreds of miles away you are screwed.

    You don't say anything about how McLaren service responded to your issues, especially since these would all be under warranty. With those items fixed, the car's value would not have been impacted either.
    What we are left with is that despite you continually wittering on about how you're 'not going to name names' and 'not wanting to make a big thing about it' you've taken the trouble to record a UA-cam video in which you slag the car and the company off, without any explanation of how McLaren tried (or didn't try) to resolve your concerns. I bet Lamborghini will watch this and are so looking forward to having you as a customer....

I’d park this guy’s car out on the back lot and work on someone else’s car. Lamborghini and Ferrari better look out if they take this guy for a customer.

    I don't think Mclaren fans understand the levels of build quality problems Mclaren cars have. They keep saying Mclaren cars have impeccable quality, Which is not true. And they wrongly mention Ferrari cars having problems. But the 70:s quality problems are gone and Ferrari offers 7 years free service since 2010.
    Actually the same goes for Porsche fans and their beliefs over Porsche not having any quality problems. Just look at some Porsche owners having quality problems with their cars.

  • @evolutionautomotive7433
    @evolutionautomotive7433 7 років тому +70

    Unfortunately that’s not true per Only Mclaren having production issues with early VIN cars. I had problems with my Ferrari 458, 488 and my Lamborghini Super Trofeo as well as Huracan. They weren’t terrible issues thankfully and we all resolved within a reasonable amount of time but I have found that All cars will have some niggles in early production. That is unfortunately inherent to All brands no matter who the manufacturer is.
    To add to your review or video on the issues you had, there’s no excuse for these issues. McLaren should release a fully tested vehicle(every vehicle) and it should pass muster in every way. You and all of us(most at least) work hard for what we have and should get what we pay for, a fully functioning, issue free vehicle, period.
    Be it known, I too have a 720S on order, fully specced and I will take note of the issues you had to make sure my build is issue free.

Reminds me of TVR days when the first run of cars were always trouble. Such a shame as I was aspiring to a McLaren one day.

    If you're looking for good roads in the uk , there is no better place i could suggest other than the "Evo triangle". Taking your aventador up there would be no less than an orgasmic experience.

    You said u weren’t gonna bad mouth anyone and throw in any specific names so that makes me think the car itself wasn’t the only issue. But later on in the video u make it sound like the only issues were with the car itself. Did u have a bad experience with the service at the dealer or something? I’m not hating, just curious. Keep the great content coming👊🏾

    An "early" model of the production car is going to have "bugs". They almost all do. The manufacturer has to be willing to work with you and vice versa to get it hammered out. Additionally, with all the tech equipment on board the 720, your bugs problem is going to be multiplied. One thing is for sure.. I doubt he took a loss when he flipped it in...

    Gonna have to agree with you on this. I really did have high hopes for the 720s but as you explained the faults in the vid it is a bit of let down.
    But on a plus note, if you want to go on some good driving roads in the UK then try Norfolk, lots of nice straights and excellent corners. A real test for supercars and sportscars.

Totally different the the sv roadster. I sold that one at a profit. I will say the avs sounds much better than sv (stock).

  • @tomtalkscars9494
    @tomtalkscars9494 7 років тому

    It's very rare someone speaks out of the 'McLaren Cult' probably all worried about causing even more depreciation on their cars. It feels like they are making incredible cars but releasing them a bit early, probably partly down to the fact they are launching a car every 17 seconds. Such a shame 😔

    • @tomtalkscars9494
      @tomtalkscars9494 7 років тому

      Very true. Although at least then the owners get a new car. McLaren seem to have a habit of launching cars not fully finished. The 12C they had to retro fit the sat nav and entertainment system. Such a shame.

    • @tomtalkscars9494
      @tomtalkscars9494 7 років тому +1

      They need to cool off a bit imo. Calm down and stick to the the 5-8 year release cycle everyone else does. That will cool the market and help residuals and then they can focus on fully developing the cars. Look at the depreciation difference between a 12C and a 458 from the same year and milage. Half the issue is no one trusts McLaren not to launch a '760S' or something within the next 18 months and destroy all value in the 720 :(

  • @WayneGarrison
    @WayneGarrison 7 років тому

    I don't think there is a quality issue with McLaren... There is definitely an issue with early cars, as there's been a few mentions across the board. Owning a 650S and a 675LT I can list the number of problems I've had here as: aircon fault, door failure and airbrake failure. First two were resolved at a McLaren dealership within a week and last issue is a recurring problem that is fixed by a restart. Its a shame you've experienced these issues as it does detract from the brand... It's a horrible feeling getting into a car and thinking "what's next?", Just don't let it alienate you from the brand and maybe give it a go a few years down the line when teething issues have been resolved!

    You have got your terms wrong. Material Quality is Good But not Built Quality.

Material Quality is the Quality of the Leather, Plastic, Carbon Fibre and all of the fittings

    If I buy a 488 today it is tried, proven and trusted. If you put deposits down for something that hasn't even got a model name then you run a risk, if you buy on finance you run even more risk, if you think you will hardly depreciate any money then you run a risk..it was you who made the mistake. After only 7 year in business (not 7 decades) I hope McLaren learn from this and maybe adjust a bit to a soft launch, introducing a few first and then build to a crescendo over the coming 2 years and avoid chucking these out the door to you tube wannabes who want to trailer the car to everywhere and then talk to a camera instead of driving.

    This was really interesting. I have wondered with both you and Tom, whether buying your cars as some of the first off would give issues.
    I work in the automotive industry and seeing what I’ve seen going into brand new cars and what is ‘contained’ at the factory before it is properly fixed would stop me buying one that new personally.
    Best of luck with the S.

    Mclaren's business model of quantity over quality and their whole doctrine of flooding the market with cars is going to catch up to them sooner than later. The 720s rollout is turning out to be a huge flop.
