2018 Mclaren 720S V8 S-A 4.0L Petrol · BO55 PVR

The 2025‑07‑22 MOT at 16,855 miles confirms the 2018 McLaren 720S V8 S‑A remains roadworthy, with no defects recorded and a flawless pass rate across all five tests, indicating a stable maintenance trend and consistent care since the vehicle’s early years. The mileage trajectory shows a marked contrast between early rapid use and later low‑kilometre operation; the jump from 8,327 miles in September 2021 to 11,558 miles by October 2022 represents a 3,231‑mile surge over two months, after which the annual average fell to roughly 2,100 miles per year, well below the typical wear rate for an eight‑year‑old sports car, suggesting periods of limited driving interspersed with more intensive use. A buyer should therefore focus on the mechanical components that commonly exhibit wear despite the clean record: inspect suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or corrosion, verify brake disc thickness and caliper binding, examine the underbody and wheel‑arch areas for structural rust, and assess tyre tread depth and condition, as these items are the most likely to reveal hidden deterioration.
