- I get behind the wheel of McLaren's latest 'LT', the 765 and take it on a 500 mile round trip to Alexander's Prestige in Yorkshire!
From McLaren about the 765LT:
- Next chapter in the McLaren ‘Longtail’ story begins with global unveiling of new 765LT
- 765PS and 800Nm from twin-turbocharged McLaren V8 engine enables 0-60mph in 2.7 seconds; 0-100km/h (62mph) in 2.8 seconds; 0-200km/h (124mph) in 7.2 seconds
- Transmission gearing optimised for throttle response - 15% quicker in-gear acceleration than a 720S and the fastest lap times of any McLaren Super Series model
- Lighter, in the LT tradition: 80kg less than 720S coupé at 1,339kg (DIN weight) and just 1,229kg at lightest dry weight - more than 50kg below its closest competitor in comparable specification
- Class-leading power-to-weight ratio of 622PS-per-tonne at lightest dry weight
- High-performance, lightweight materials throughout with advanced carbon fibre technologies for body components
- Specific weight-saving measures include titanium exhaust system, Formula 1-grade transmission materials, thinner glass and motorsport-style polycarbonate glazing
- New LT aerodynamic package, all in carbon fibre: front splitter, front bumper, front floor, side skirts, rear bumper, rear diffuser and larger ‘Longtail’ active rear wing
- Renowned McLaren Super Series chassis dynamics enhanced, with bespoke LT springs and dampers; increased front track width; lower front ride-height and unique software programme for state-of-the-art, linked-hydraulic Proactive Chassis Control II suspension
- 10-spoke Ultra-Lightweight forged alloy wheels, titanium wheel bolts and bespoke Pirelli P Zero™ Trofeo R circuit-bred tyres as standard
- Carbon-ceramic discs, calipers from the McLaren Senna and Formula 1-inspired, integrated caliper cooling ducts combine for superb brake pedal feel and incredible stopping power
- Quad-exit full-titanium exhaust system delivers a searing ‘LT soundtrack’, as well as a 40% weight-saving over a comparable steel system
- Motorsport-inspired interior design features carbon fibre racing seats, carbon fibre centre tunnel, exposed carbon fibre floor and lightweight Alcantara® throughout
- Optional double-glazed panel integrated within the carbon fibre rear upper structure showcases the McLaren V8 engine
- Air-conditioning and an audio system are deleted as standard to minimise weight, but can be specified at no additional cost
- MSO Clubsport and MSO Clubsport Pro packs group individual optional upgrades
- 765LT active rear wing, rear bumper and front floor designed, engineered and manufactured at the McLaren Composites Technology Centre (MCTC) in Yorkshire, UK - the first use of MCTC-produced carbon fibre body components in a McLaren road car
- Just 765 individually numbered cars available globally to customer order

Alexander's have a fantastic business and set-up.
Agreed and what a wonderful advert for them 👍
Andrew North came over as a decent guy as well , proud of what he’s got with a down to earth attitude .
Tom Hartley could learn a lot from watching this vid ,as that man comes across as a prat.
He came across like a genuine person, running a business with all the stresses that go with it. Good on ‘im
@@waynestephens846 first class scally
500 miles and nothing fell off?
McLaren have come a long way!
The LT cars always had superior quality over the regular model. Almost like they put a little more effort in to build quality.
They all day 665 LT is the sweet spot
@@johnnyboy1586 675LT you mean 😉
@@nicolasdujardin5691 yes sorry 😐
😂
The looks of the 765LT genuinely makes it one of my favorite cars of all time. It’s just so aggressive and beautiful
The one time Sam drives a McLaren, but of course uses it to see a Ferrari xD
The day this man gets a Stradale it needs to be all car youtube event
Got to say Sam! Over the past few weeks the content has really been on point 🙂🔥
Dealer guy with the amazing mane looks like he's your older brother
the way you GLOW when you're in a CS is staggering!!! So good Sam! Such a joy seeing you in one
765 LT Spider coming up it seems 😍
Not always a fan of Mclarens but this car seems mega
Kudos to the owner of the Stradale, sounds like a proper car guy.
Fantastic video Sam, always a pleasure to have you visiting the showroom (and Twiggy of course) and great to see the 765 LT next to our 720S close up. Glad you enjoyed the trip out in the 360 Challenge Stradale, although we've really set the bar high for surprises next time you visit!
I feel like Mclaren is like an ex girlfriend. They keep trying to convince you how much they’ve changed and to give them another chance. 😂😂
But they still have a breakdown every 5 mins and occasionally blow up and explode.
and you only get half the money back when you get rid of them
I took the plunge and haven’t regretted it. Bought a new 570S in 2017 and loved it but suffered the corrosion issue. After switching to a 911 Turbo which I found bland, then onto a new Vantage (mine featured on Jayemm on Cars channel) which was great but didn’t tick the supercar box for me, I decided to look for a 600LT Spider. Best car decision I’ve made. It’s absolutely awesome and easily the best car I’ve driven. Ignore the commenters who slag them off but haven’t experienced ownership. McLaren’s offer so much to an enthusiast.
I've always loved McLarens. I don't know what you're talking about. Or, you just wanted to repeat a statement you've heard Sam said in another video?
@@supreme_overlord
No, they don't! I know several McLaren owners who say their car never broke down. Brooks of Dragtimes always raced his 720s. And he said he never experienced any issue with it. He just recently sold it.
I think a lot of us were kinda iffy about the 720S design when it was first unveiled but I gotta say, after a few years this car has really aged like fine wine and this LT is just another step in the right direction
It’s so much nicer in the flesh. I always found it ugly in pics but then when I saw one on the road my opinion totally changed.
Great dealership and Andrew is a legend!
This vid had it all, the CS and 765LT are both awesome cars!
Your videos just get better and better. Great content and even better editing! Thank you Sam!
Ha Ha that was one hell of a day. The guys at Alexander's seem really cool. Too bad you didn't get to take that Diablo out, I love those damn things.
This is a car that you don't drive every day. When I take mine out it's 20-50 miles at a time. It's just as special as the last time. It's a car that makes you pay attention and focus. You enjoy the moments because of that. The more you put in, the more you are rewarded (providing the roads are clear). I even get up at 5:30 AM on Sundays to drive mine on good roads before they're populated with slower cars. I have a Turbo S for the more daily driving requirements. Also, mine at least is impeccably built and I've had zero issues in over 1k miles and 3 months of ownership.
And yes, it's really that fast. I've done the 1/4 mile in 9.7 seconds at 149.4 on the street with the stock Pirelli P Zeros.
Fair to say that 765lt is one hell of a machine. Crazy to look at, unparralleled performance, and just amazing. Lucky you Sam, 36 hours with a top notch car. IF only you were given a 360 CS 🙃
Wonderful variety of content here. Clearly you had a great time!! - Thanks for sharing.
What a bonus Sam, loved this episode so much.... hard work pays off, congrats
Add this video to my top 5 vids of the year from you Sam !!! Loved it
Both of you are excellent commentators with effortless captivity of an audience.
The 765LT is one hell of a car for the roads though, such a monster and enjoyed you driving it.
He turned it into a fucking FERRARI advert did he not ? he had the new beast of the road but could not wait to take a outdated pissa machine out !
@@scottnaish-theheartpatient2016 Well thats his wish what he likes🤷
Did you just leak that the 765LT Spider is launching in a few days?
He did
Great video Sam. Love the guy at Alexanders and their do it attitude with a smile. If I were in the market I might just buy from them but sadly I'll be driving my Skoda Yeti for a while yet...
Best video on the main channel for a while, loved it 👍
Any updates on a purchase of a Jag f type SVR and Lamborghini gallardo MK1 superlegerer? Plz do a Q&A!
Yeah agreed a good old car spotting q&a in the fiat maybe ?
Haven’t even watched yet Sam and loving the fact that it’s over 20 minutes!!
Appreciate that not all can be and that editing is extra, but I think it’s safe to say we all want more STG minutes ✌️😎
I've cycled past Alexander's so many times without realising how vast it was. Seriously impressive setup!
Really great video Sam, super-relaxed vibe, great varied content!… and now I want a 765LT 😂 (plus a 360CS but that’s a given!)
That was one of the most fun You Tube videos ever!!! Loving the Challenge Stradale too!
Every video you make is so unique and great to watch. I used to follow lots of car youtubers but they all do the same now and it's soo boring and you're channel Is one of only ones Im still subscribed to and enjoy every video.
Great to watch all of the utter glee bursting from the screen ..... I was also grinning .... awesome stuff indeed.
that glee in his voice when he was told he would be allowed to take the challenge stradale, thats why we all love Sam :D
Great vlog Sam love your channel
Yes, STG is back on British roads👍
Keep them coming Sam, top notch!
Loving these longer STG videos!
I am so happy for you every time you have some CS experience!
Great video Sam! Can't wait for the next one. What I'm really looking forward to is the test drive of the Artura 😊
Bloody love your videos Sam!!!!
Alexander’s is awesome!! Also in love with the CS
Loved that video Sam, superb 😎
Enjoyed the longer video Sam! 👍
Amazing video as usual Sam!
Your reaction to driving the 360 CS is the best, that under the bridge sound is incredible!
I wouldn't mind longer videos, so much content to show!
Wonderful video sam. Looking forward to the secret one!
Well done Sam. That was brilliant
Over 20-mins on a Sunday - perfect
for a factory exhaust the lt sounds amazing
Superb content Sam
Wow what a great set up they have👌
So good to see you back in a McLaren Sam..
Cool vid. Have fun, get amped and share it all with us. You're awesome, Sam.
Awesome review!
Fantastic content Sam
Really good video Sam
Great video
Great video Sam
Love the black tape over the speedo! Very wise!
Insane 765, insane CS, insane trousers!
Nice exhaust note
I love that we get to see what the UK is like. The scenery, the people, and off course a British POV regarding cars. I also like that less elitist cars are featured. Everybody obviously knows and likes the newest supercars. But a car that’s a few years old? And is not a supercar? Covered here. Great job!
Amazing vid
Awesome car - great vid!
What a wonderful showroom.👍😎👍😎👍😎
I like these longer videos.
Dream garage goals. Stock 720s Spyder , 765 LT coupe and a novitec 720s n Largo.
The matching shirts was cute 👕 🤣
Great video Sam, I think the 765 looks mega, but I'd still prefer a 675
360stradale sound is simply a tribute to the entire automobile history of this planet
Impressive another sterling review
What a great ad for Alexander's tbf
it does look good! my favourite it still the 675tl
That is a really nice business he’s got! Keepin it classy!
I love Alex's Yorkshire accent! Its so epic haha, nearly as epic as that 765 !! 😄😍
What a top bloke to allow the CS drive 👍👍
My favourite video of the year.
When you said about being 100% stiffer I think he was asking how the car was mate, great vid!
LOVE the 765LT
Not the biggest mclaren fan, but that 765 looks absolutely insane. Love the looks
Holy frack that car sounds and looks epic
That collection 😍
nice to see some big boy car vids
DB11 is growing so much on me. Every car nowadays needs to be wider, more aggressive etc. Just give me the elegance. DB11>DBS / 720S>765LT. Shame Porsche doesn't make the small body 911 anymore.. great vid Sam!
My dream supercar
I love Mclaren! 🏎💪🏻❤️
That Mc is sick!!!!💪🏻💪🏻
Loved the video Sam! Can’t wait for the chat with Tony about the 765LT😂
Great video Sam
The 765 LT is a brilliant car
But
That CS.....
Analogue car
NA
The sound through the tunnel
🚗 💥 💨
🏆 🥇 🏁
Someone was almost obliged to a roa(d)sted chicken dinner 👀 good f1 reflexes
If,when I have money..this is the kind of place and people I would spend it with.👍
Very good video 👍
At least it didn’t burst in to flames 🔥 always a bonus 😅
Awsome video sam. What a car so happy to see you likeing a McLaren agin they are British super car . Got love sound of the 350 cs theo something about a v8 ferrari
Sam, Great video ! Please can you help Andrew and teach him how to tighten/ use a four point harness, he got it totally wrong. Looked ridiculous.
Here in Victoria Australia, Patrols, fixed and portable cameras everywhere. Fines $227 for 5 kph over the limit. $500 for 25 kph over the limit and licence suspension !
Alex and Sams shirt co-ordination 👌
Not sure if anyone watching your channel can afford a car from Alexander’s, but if I ever come into a lot of money I’ll be coming down.
Great advert for the company.
Ps if the video really was 48 minutes long I would have been buzzing, keep up the good work Sam.
Long time watcher and listen to ever podcast 👍
So the 765lt spider is launching in a couple of days then?
