MCLAREN MP4-12C 650S2014 · 3.8L PETROL

This vehicle has an exceptionally clean MOT history with no defects recorded at any of its last five annual tests, including the most recent pass in April 2026. That is a very strong sign of consistent maintenance and careful ownership. The recorded mileage pattern is unusual and worth close attention. The car covered only about 2,980 miles between 2022 and 2023, then jumped to 5,056 miles by mid-2023, then to 5,701 by mid-2024, then to 16,270 by May 2025, and finally to 25,895 by April 2026. That means roughly 9,625 miles were added in the last year alone, compared to only about 2,700 miles in the previous three years combined. This is not a steady low-mileage car; it appears to have been used very lightly for several years and then driven much more intensively in the most recent period. The overall condition trend appears stable based on the MOT results, but the sudden increase in annual mileage introduces new risk. Components that have sat idle for long periods—such as seals, tyres, suspension bushings, and the hydraulic system on a McLaren—can degrade from lack of use, and then be stressed by a sudden return to regular driving. The low average of roughly 2,158 miles per year over the car's life is ambiguous: it could mean gentle, preserved use, but it could also mean periods of standing that cause perishing, corrosion, or fluid breakdown. A buyer should inspect the condition of all tyres for age-related cracking, check the service history for proof that annual or mileage-based servicing was actually carried out during the low-mileage years, and pay close attention to any warning lights or hydraulic system behaviour during a test drive.
