2018 McLaren 540C Video Review McLaren 540C road tested and rated I don’t like most super cars. There, I’ve said it. I find most of them crass and tasteless. Their hideous lines, ludicrous price, and horrendous reliability appeal to a conspicuous consumer interested only in consumption for the sake of it. Then something comes along … Continue reading McLaren 540C VIDEO drive and review
2018 McLaren 540C drive, Road Test, Review, and rating. Introduction Subtle, discrete, quiet, said no-one ever about McLaren’s 540C. It is lithe, nimble, quick, and light, but above all, fabulous.
