We had all the reasons to split and we made a final when and to forever The decay was double before when from up until us when and to forever When and to forever When and to forever refers memory when there is more of a lifetime But they used to talk, they're the answer each and found out which were made of thick All the scripts say we went to hell Ha ha ha ha Oh good god Welcome back to the McLaren 720s That's just slow it down a notch So the last time I was in the 720s on the road was outside of Rome in Italy during the launch event If you recall watching that I think you'll agree that its number one trait is just its blistering performance Particularly my favorite my favorite thing about this car is its straight line punch And particularly how it hugs up after the apex The apex and you can give it all of its power its ability to lay traction and catapult you into a different time zone is outstanding However if you did watch that video you might also remember that I sort of concluded by saying that for all of its incredible performance It doesn't necessarily deliver that experience with as much theatre as you might expect from a super car Now that's not to do this thing a disservice it is of course a sense of occasion being in it However when you're on the road most of the time you're not able to unleash the performance that this thing has And when I say performance to give it some context it sort of overlaps into early hypercar territory it is that fast Anyway enough of it being fast we are now at the middle of winter in the UK This car is running winter tires the tread blocks are like this great for displacing water not necessarily the best for finding optimal grip And I'm in quite a unique position in that I've been living with this car now for the last 10 days So I have rinsed it I have done everything I possibly can with this thing It's been a car that I've had over Christmas I did all my Christmas shopping in it I've visited relatives in it I took parcels to and from friends houses everything that you would do over Christmas this thing has nails And living with it has put this car into its own bracket yes it's a super car but it's breadth of ability Honestly I'm not sure of any other car that ticks quite as many boxes as this in the super car realm I was thinking of the things that this thing will go up against 9.11 Turbo maybe an Audi R8 But when you look at this as a complete package the usability of it is daft I mean they've managed to drop the engine so low in the rear that you now have a proper boot in the back And maybe through this camera it doesn't look so big but the amount of presence that I was carrying around it became the fastest sleigh in the world And the boot in the front it's huge now this is this sort of funny trade-off where I can't quite place where this thing should sit Like as a daily driver it's definitely I almost without question it is the best super car that I have ever driven to use daily If you've been following my pictures on Instagram you'll know how dirty this thing has become because I've been taking it everywhere It's in the winter and I'm not precious about it if I was in the Smejorly this winter I just maybe have kept it in the garage most of the time perhaps cleaned it three times a week Just because the conditions don't lend itself to I think the psychological nature that the Smejorly it imparts on you This thing I just want to get out and drive it everywhere and it laps up every situation Everything it doesn't matter what's what I mean I've had family in the passenger seats my family aren't the most flexible and the new doors and the entry in the way they've cut out this roof slot here and scalloped away the carbon tub just allows for it to just be a lot more friendly and usable when you're using it on a daily basis But going back going back to where I'm not sure this car fits is Ultimately when you've specced this car up with the bits that you probably want it's coming in at 250,000 pounds I mean you can spec it out a lot higher you can spec it lower but I think the average price is around about there and it is ultimately a super car And I'm sort of like should it be this easy and when I say easy when we're driving like this it kind of is no sense of occasion at all It's nice to be in and witness all the thick cool interior but I'm not really aware that I'm in a super car It's when you do this a few times drop it down or we're in second now I mean second track mode that was in track mode as well as it was fairly tame but when you do this Just a short squalot everything changes and I guess it is a real jackal and hide car Now I can't tell if I like that or not I can't tell if when I'm in it I want it to be a pure certification for every turn of the wheel But equally as I was saying with this spatula earlier I'm actually using this every single day so you're getting more of your money's worth As a result there is no question about it of all of the super cars that I'm likely to own This is the one that I would use the most in just back into the matter of the weather no matter what you're doing back into you on Long motorway miles in this car did we're in this world now aren't we we're in this world where cars are blurring but super cars are blurring lines between this sort of occasional raw visceral attack machine To something that you can do your Christmas shopping in and I'm not sure if I like that or not and that's where you know things like the more pure raw versions of these cars for me really stand out Now if you follow this channel regularly you'll know that I had a McLaren 720s on order a very early one and my comment sections are very often filled with where the hell is your 720s And I agree with you long story short there was delays delays delays on my builds lot from the factory never really quite found out why that was And I ended up pulling my order because I found out that if I wanted the car it would eventually be next year So yeah, I ended up pulling the order now do I regret that probably it's usable I was actually having a chat with someone and we almost likened it to the RS6 of the Supercar world It is literally it ticks that many boxes it's crazy but on top of that I just don't know how they've got about making the access to performance Fade into a world of practicality so seamlessly ridiculous other than not having two seats in the back It does everything everything I mean I it's hard to fault it the only fault that I have with it and I'm gonna provide a counter to this fault Is that it's just for me there isn't enough theatre yes when you smash that throttle this theatre a plenty But when you're driving it on the road you're not always doing that and so I would sooner it give me emotional connection and feedback And just sort of ultimately I think this kind of comes down to the way it sounds but when I'm driving at road speeds I kind of want to know that I'm driving at the crazy Supercar And I think that's why for me I am now looking forward to the inevitable lightweight or LT version of this car I say lightweight this thing I think it's like sort of high 1300 kgs weight like wet weight because of course we've got this new monocage 2 carbon cell structure Which is basically majority of this car's chassis but as an LT owner I spend 10,000 miles in the 675 LT and that thing for me it's still that best car They absolutely nailed it and it was a sense of occasion even when I was going slow This thing we have to remember and this is where my counter is to my own point This is a 650S successor yet everyone compares it to the 675 LT because its performance is a complete step on Literally I mean I wouldn't have believed that that sort of entry level Super Series car would be this ballistically fast I mean when I first drove this I was literally like where the hell do we go from here? It's daft So having said all of that yes it ticks the most boxes it is without doubt the fastest car in its class And all I can say is I do miss the fact that it would probably be one of these cars in my own ship by now But what I'm more excited about is the lightweight version of this car And so to summarize as the rain closes in once again I am now going to do my grocery shopping in this car And I will definitely be the fastest car at Carrier in the land As always guys thanks for watching I'll see you in Dubai Ciao
