2016 Mclaren 570S 3.8L Petrol · NC14 REN

The 2016 McLaren 570S presents a clean and stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT conducted on 30 March 2026 at 28,037 miles passing with zero defects or advisories. The maintenance trend is firmly improving. A fractured nearside front coil spring identified on 25 March 2024 at 23,622 miles was rectified before the subsequent test on 4 April 2024, and no related suspension faults have reappeared in the two tests since. This indicates the defect was addressed promptly rather than left to degrade. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a vehicle approaching eleven years of age. Covering just 2,131 miles between April 2025 and March 2026, and 2,271 miles in the preceding twelve months, the annualised figure sits well below the recorded average of approximately 2,804 miles per year. The gap between April 2023 and March 2026 shows a steady but modest accumulation pattern with no sudden spikes that would suggest prolonged high-stress use. The record is sparse in the sense that only five tests exist across the vehicle's life, but each entry is consistent and there are no gaps in the MOT schedule that would raise concern. The fractured coil spring recorded in March 2024 is the sole defect in the entire history, and its resolution without recurrence is encouraging. Still, any prospective buyer should inspect the front suspension components in person, paying close attention to both coil springs for signs of corrosion or cracking and the suspension bushes and dampers for uneven wear that could indicate the vehicle has been driven aggressively on imperfect surfaces despite the low mileage. Given the car's high-performance nature and relatively light use, long periods of standing may have aged rubber bushings and seals in ways that low mileage alone does not reveal. The braking system and exhaust emissions have remained defect-free throughout the record, but the low annual mileage means surface corrosion on brake discs and calipers could be present even where pad life remains adequate. A physical inspection of the underside for structural corrosion, particularly around subframe mounting points and suspension pickup areas, is advisable. The clean MOT record is a strong indicator of responsible ownership, but the nature of this vehicle demands a thorough hands-on assessment beyond paperwork.
