Once you hear that Audi R8 V10s sweet engine note, I don't know how you buy this McLaren that sounds like a pickup truck V6. Audi R8 for me. It's special
Maybe some people think that there is more to a sports car than a nice sounding engine...? Every comparison test says the McLaren handles much better and they are rarer, which matters to a lot of people. (You’re right though, the V10 sounds outstanding)
The McLaren doesn't handle better son. It's too artificial, the R8 gives the feel of a PROPER supercar instead of a robot that does everything for you.
Too many on the road, you might as well just get an uber as no one will notice you in your Audi! I know it's vain of me but when you have spent a lot of money you at least want someone to look at you cruising down the street and anyone who says they don't are lying and you may as well just get a taxi from A to B and save your money
I'm deciding between this, an r8 v10 plus, or an older ferrari california (non t). They are just about the same price, give or take in Australia. My heart and the child in me wants the mclaren. Even though they're built like hot garbage, i will lose a TON of money on it (wont keep either for longer than 3 years) and they are unreliable as all hell. Add that mclaren likes not to adhere to warranty, and we got a bad decision...But it looks ace, and it's the fastest...Then the audi is all that, but it's an Audi. and it's slightly boring, plus the resale still won't be pretty. Then there's the california....might be the slowest, heaviest, least pretty, but it's still a ferrari, it still looks great, still drives great, AND it's at the bottom of the depreciation curve, only 7000 built. In 3 years i could probably resell it for the same price, or even for slightly more.... Can't pick, honestly.
@F1nn 1456 I decided to sit it out and wait until used prices normalise. You could get a gen 1 V8 r8 for $85k or a 1st gen R35 GTR for $75k a few months before I wrote that comment. Now they're both $110k+ asking price. Would be a pretty bad financial decision buying a 2nd hand car rn. If you can neg. Down a California for about $180k AUD I'd go for that, but good luck with that. I'll most likely go for a 2012-2014 V10 r8 though, best price/performance+looks. Both the California and 540c are leagues above both the vantage and the Maserati, though. Plus a year ago you could get both a grancabrio and a V8 vantage for around $75k. Not so much now.
Reviewig mclaren sports car like it would be kia city boxy car. Looking good firm but you have sonet 90percent od time talking about infotainment and booring stuff. Where Is fun, sliding, fun stuff. We havent even Heard the engine.
Almost 200k car with manual seat and steering wheel adjustment as well as Basic old and laggy informant system what a joke all the Competitors has better interior design and options and you can get them in the basic version.
Michael Hodgkinson the blue trousers, which are supposed to be sporty-elegant, but in fact look like borrowed form a granny, in combination with the jacket.
Not gonna lie, i really love the 540c
I can tell that you enjoyed making/reviewing this McLaren as you sounded more enthusiastic and excited.
looks great in that colour
Nigel W I think that every McLaren looks better with a flashy color (green,red,orange...)
Keep up the good work!
Excellent video, as usual from the lovely Rebecca. Having said that, it's noticeable that even for the lovely Rebecca, time rolls by!
When the entry level McLaren is even equipped with a scissor door style while Lambo's entry level doesn't even have one unless modded lol wtf
Did you have a good day at the office :) Really nicely presented too :)
Love your videos and love you
you dirty man ....go sit in the corner
Get in the que
Wow what a car ....I love this machine . Bit young for my taste and being honest bit expensive for me . You are as usual beautiful and breath taking.
Great Video Review. Rebecca Is the best Female Car Video Reviewer
you need to grow a set
she is a pinup for 10 years olds
Ginny Too!
She most definitely is!!
@@An.Individual She's a racing driver mate.
I would buy anything from this lady...

Mike Newbold What about your mum
Wished I had a job reviewing cars like this 😁

Great car but not loving that front end though!
Look at that smile on Rebecca....me thinks she enjoyed this review.
How many Mclaren 540c coupe are made?

Rebecca for Top Gear. Like if you agree!
Not silly enough - maybe for Fifth Gear...
Absolutely! She would get me watching it again as since J, R and J left I have not tuned in once.
Chris Harris is alright I thought
great video

What a car!! All I need to do is win the lottery!!
I’d feel short changed if I got in and had to start yanking the bloody seat forwards myself
To save weight.

Shame you played cheesy "rock" music instead of letting us hear the engine and exhaust note 🙄
Rebecca can come test drive my car ANY DAY OF THE WEEK.
Why do they get so few of these supercars reviewed at What Car? I like to see more Ferraris
My favourite reviewer Rebecca Jackson
0:49 I always stay with you Rebecca!!!

AJ difference is upon entrance 540 much harder to get in and out
533Hp destroys nismo yea I want one

It's V10
Hairdressers car

A mcLaren you’d think electric seat adjuster and steering wheel
It’s like that to save weight.

Midengine cars are scary? LOL who ever said this?
She's an awesome driver
🔥⚡️
I'll trade you cars...
I hear Top Gear is looking for a new presenter
they are looking for 3
That was 4 months ago
Nobody watching this can afford it lets be honest.
I can...
That window is so dirty!!!!
It's called rain...
what's the point just for views? no one watching what car can afford a mclaren lol
R8 is a V10
Sayam Ahmed soon be a v6
I love Rebecca's...
i love a car girl
A pink bus.
Awpen rawd
Pick up me. Please !!
I don't like it.
test
Fake banana?! Didn't expect it from you Rebecca!
... neither the quite awful styling today :(
Benzinio its to carry the banana in fella
Awful styling? What are you referring to?!
Michael Hodgkinson the blue trousers, which are supposed to be sporty-elegant, but in fact look like borrowed form a granny, in combination with the jacket.
Benzinio Why the hell are you bothered about what a presenter is wearing you weirdo?! Do you judge Chris Harris on the colour of his jeans?
I do not watch Crhis Harris since he is part of the "new" Top Gear. Neither do judge Rebecca when she is in jeans.
That is one ugly rear end, and the front isn't much better. Looks like a frog smiling. Couldn't be much worse tbh. Nice review though
notification Squad!! Pin This!
