Best video I’ve seen from Paul in sometime. Nice 👍🏻

My good friend ordered an Artura. Delivery was delayed by two weeks while they sorted out software issues. So they gave him a courtesy Artura. That broke the day after he received it. It took two McLaren technicians most of the day to get it up and running so they could take it away. When my mates one finally arrived it was taken away within the first month with the following issues (copied from the message he sent me): Hybrid System Failure. Windscreen needs replacement due to poor fitment. 12v battery dead. Windows don’t shut fully. DAB has no reception. Bluetooth doesn’t work properly Fuel filler overflow doesn’t work properly. Infotainment doesn’t always come on so can't use sat nav or air con. Fuel gauge range reading over 600 miles. He regrets getting it.

A fantastic looking supercar and you don't need to win the lottery to buy one! There are two up for sale at £200,000 at the moment. Much cheaper than a Ferrari 296 GTB!!

​@@kingscuderia I agree. But as a Ferrari fan, I like how McLaren added just about everything I love about supercars, including exotic doors.

One of the best videos you have done. How many recalls has the 296 had?

Thats a great looking car. Well put SOL and a nice video

Possibly it is an entry level hybrid in the McLaren line up, like a 570S hybrid with more power. Likely, Mclaren would release another v8 hybrid

Thanks Paul. I sat back and not only really enjoyed this video but found out much about the car too. Good video mate.

Wow the back looks stunning , beautiful car !

Supercars of London Awesome Video I think it's awesome that the McLaren Technology Center let you borrow that Absolutely Gorgeous Artura and I can't wait to see what Vehicle you'll review next

Buy this exact one, the spec is so perfect for you and your channel 👍🏻

Shout out to Mclaren. Thank you for working with Supercars of London to bring us this great content. We want more please Expand this great relationship. Thanks Paul for an awesome video.

Has the car had any glitches?

Of course it has, it's a McLaren 😂

Excellent car. Wish they could sort out the issues

I love the fact that McL have succeeded in bringing hybrid power unit to market…. But but but, even I as an owner of a 570 Spider I’d be hard pushed to hand in heart say it’s a big step up on aesthetics 🤔

Depreciation will be the main problem…I’ve got a 2020 911 Carrera S probably only lost £25k in 42months of owning..in my opinion McLaren needed to get the Artura absolutely perfect before launch…& from everything you hear I’m afraid that is not the case…I’m sure this is highlighted more because of previous issues but once you lose your reputation it’s hard to get it back..

5:22 great video - the car's quality however... That bottom half of the exhaust heat shield is loose, can see at this point in the video 😂

I’ve had my Artura for 2 weeks and no major issues

Nice car :) BTW just want to tell you have a rock sitting in top of your exsaust, look like scraping the paint of the grid there :) Yor can see it in 5:21 :) But Enjoy your ride :)

Having worked bloody hard to be able to afford any number of cars, its disappointing to hear that McLaren are patchy in quality with a GBP 200,000 product. Can't decide what i want but having taken out an Emira for a test blast i was really impressed with how it ate B class roads.

Have you brought a car yet?

Lotus still has the best sounding V-6 on the market. The Artura Spider will be epic!

It’s certainly a good looking car

I’ve owned a McLaren for almost 7 years . Never had a problem .

Black on black makes it look like the batmobile

Brill review!

For the electrical issues you just have to sleep the car for 5 mins should solve it once you turn it back on

P1? Well have you watched Tavarish rebuilding his flooded P1? Some of the body panels had a stack of shims jammed in to make the panels line up. A stack of shims! For a million dollar car?? I dunno man. I dunno.

Soz, but hybrid and supercar should not be combined in the same sentence. Weight is an absolute killer and whilst McLaren have done a great job trying to keep it down compared to their competitors its still way heavier than their previous ICE vehicles. It also sounds PANTS. Give me a N/A V10 every day especially in Lambo guise

the huracan is awesome but its nice to see something new

They rushed this car, looks exquisite in proper colours. Mclaren just have to be patient with their production processes and work on quality. Because their cars from a chassis, steering and tech just work better than most. I dont think the 296 had glitches and built quality issue even if its minor, these are 200 K cars.

Drive that hybrid white good and a N/A V10 Lamborghini Huracan Tecnica back to back and we all know which car you would choose - Lambo is a the peak of the old school supercars that handles and sounds sublime

Doesn’t handle, ride, or steer anything as good as this Mclaren. Does it sound incredible? Yes, but it’s a decade old chassis so enjoy that sound …..it’s the only thing it’s got in terms of driving enjoyment that’s superior to the Artura

Doesn't handle better, isn't as livable and the McLaren easily has the better brakes. Sure I'd love the NA V10, my lord does it sound so good but there is 0% for me to pick a car that handles worse. Not to mention, the hydraulic steering on the Artura is a huge bonus.

Boot space??

Depreciation is probably one of the worst, aside from electrical malfunctions and fire

It's time to get rid of the R8 and get a modern super car! Let's GO!

Hybrid system fault, McLaren norm. My nearly 7 year old NSX Hybrid has none of these issues.

I am convinced that this guy is the least professional of the UK automotive, KZreadrs

KZread influencers talk the biggest load of crap. "I've been to the gym, the football match, a meal and a country road". Yes you have and, if this car were yours, either splashed out over £190,000 0r huge monthly payments for the privilege of doing so. Nothing a £20,000 to £40,000 could not do on UK 70 mph roads. No wonder people get themselves so much into debt.

The chimney is the worst looking part for sure

Taking it to the gym?! Wow….

Macca cars, not bad. Although owners I know cant stand the dealerships. To the point that they'd sell the car and buy a Porsche.

True. I have Mclaren GT and I love the car. Oil change was 2K Euros. I can stomach that. But I was treated like second class citizen when i came for service in Mclaren of Vienna. Ive owned tens of cars but how they treat their customers is abysmal. Will try Mclaren service in Prague next time and hopefully my experience will improve..

looks like any other Mclaren with typical build problems.

Sorry I'm not paying 250k EUR to "live" with the bad and ugly. It's an amazing looking car but I can't be asked to deal with the "quirks" of a clearly unfinished vehicle.

Theres nothing ugly about a McLaren.
