Description
Jeremy Clarkson’s quote having driven a 12c when first launched: "Around a track, I know of no road car that could even get close. If you have a Ferrari 458, do not attempt to keep up with a McLaren 12c. You will be either humiliated, or killed."
My 12c is an exceptional example of the open-top ‘Super Series’ model, now a modern classic collectable.

Current MoTFor many years, McLaren were one of my clients. On stepping down from my many years' service, I bought this 12C in 2016 to keep low milage (now 2, 400 since new) for my collection, but now downsizing it, and my other cars, sadly have to go.
