So, the front half of the engine bay shroud comes off when you change/add oil?

Nimbus looks really good in the sun light.

Nimbus changes tone with different lightings….. so cool. Wouldn’t want to repair any panels, it will never match the colour from factory…. We had a Merc ML that had similar paint and had to repair and repaint a wheel arch - paint was always different tone to rest of car. One down side of such colours.

There are flaps in the front part of the shroud you lift up for dipstick and oil. The whole shroud comes off too if you want more access to the engine.

The privacy glass didn't look that dark in person! I took my DSLR down and took some pics specifically of the glass from a couple of angles, they look exactly like what I saw in the flesh:

That's exactly what I was hoping to see! I spec'd HY, Black Pack, with Privacy and haven't seen that combo, or really even many WITH the privacy glass. This was a big help, and confirms it was a good choice!

Go for it mate, the Emira is not even in the same planet as even a 6 YO 570s.

that price point confuses me a bit, is that a lease deal basically?

Looks lovely except it will spend half its life in mclaren having work done , if only they would nAil the reliability they would literally be the best cars on the road

Nope that’s the uk value

I’ve owned a 570s since new for 6 years. Outside an issue with the car reading a key fob. The car has never, ever missed a beat.

Probably 5% of the time having work done and 45% of the time waiting for parts. My local McLaren service centre car park is full of cars waiting for parts before they can be fixed. Some have been there for months.

I ordered Seneca, but these new photos of Nimbus are giving me a touch of color envy.

That is a cracking package for the money, and I wouldn't see 6 years old as any real detriment.

Aot of car forbthe money. Only thing I'd want is a Warranty, just to be on the safe side... My friend had an approved 570 for 18 months with no issues

Here in Dubai this car is very common.

I prefer the exclusivity of the lotus without any doubt. no jokes

In the US the going price for a similar example is around £140,000 or $170,000 USD.

I'm a bit jealous then! They seem to be listed for significantly more here!

Right! it's like a $40k usd discount minimum!

I'm not sure I'd have to think very long if this deal was available here!
