| What is it?
One of the quickest cars on the planet, and, as the replacement for the MP4-12C that morphed into the 650S, it is the first of a new generation of machines from McLaren Automotive, the road car division of the championship-winning Formula One team.
How much does it cost and what do you get?
The 720S is all about staggering numbers. The price alone is fairly eye-watering, starting at $489,000 and elevating to $515,080 for the Performance variant we’re testing, which was fitted with more than $180,000 worth of optional extras.
Beyond the sticker, and apart from the oily bits (which we’ll explain next), the 720S has a cabin trimmed in a mixture of leather, Alcantara and carbon fibre and features a unique infotainment system with sat nav, Bluetooth connectivity and track telemetry which allows owners to record and review data from race tracks around the world.
There’s also a fully digital instrument cluster, a reverse camera, heated and electrically-adjustable seats and it rides on 20-inch alloy wheels.
