McLaren's most recent 'Ultimate' series car lived up to its billing. So if your bonus ball comes up...
Note for reference: car weight and power data is hard to pin down with absolute certainty. For consistency, we use the same source for all our guides. We hope the data we use is right more often than it’s wrong. Our advice is to treat it as relative rather than definitive. Very few if any have ranked the McLaren's 4.0 V8 anywhere near the top of their 'favourite engine sound' lists.
Assuming it's the same as the 720S, service intervals are every 10,000 miles or 12 months. If you're the sort of millionaire that fancies taking on jobs yourself, you can almost certainly expect the Senna to throw up the same sort of reset codes or warning lights that require a special key, and using non-approved tools could invalidate your warranty.
According to insiders, the Senna was posting lap times that were less than two seconds slower than McLaren's full-fat slick-tyred GT3 race car, even with the medium-speed understeer that was an inescapable by-product of road tyres on a fast track. On the Senna the 245-section front tyres could seem were quite narrow and 'floaty' if you weren't loading them up either under braking or by cranking up the speeds to something more than medium, bringing more downforce into play.
The Senna's double-shell 'Super Lightweight' carbon fibre seats weighed 8kg each. They were upholstered with seven separate pads rather than one heavier continuous padded foam mould. Wider 'Touring' spec seats were available at extra cost. The pads on the normal seats could be finished in either Alcantara or leather, as could the button-free steering wheel.
Drivers of lesser cars – i.e. most of us – will be pleased to hear about McLaren's conclusion that the combination of a driver's seat that moved on rails and a foot pedal assembly that didn't move was the best driving position solution from a complexity and weight standpoint, so that's what they put in the Senna. Sorry about that, Ford GT owners. The four-wheel lift function was operated by a discrete stalk below the wiper stalk.
