The MP4-12C is McLaren's first production car since the legendary McLaren F1. Unlike the F1, the MP4-12C is powered by a 3. 8-litre V8, twin-turbo engine that can propel the car from 0 to 124 mph in an incredible 8. 9 seconds. Designed by Frank Stephenson, who also styled the Ferrari F430 and the new Mini, the MP4-12C was launched in 2011 and is built using a great deal of technology from McLaren's Formula One program. For example, a Formula One style carbon tub, known as a 'carbon monocell', forms the basis of the car's chassis and weighs only 80 kg. In addition, the engine is mated to a seven-speed automatic dual-clutch gearbox allowing for seamless gear changes. Even the name 'MP4-12C' is an homage to McLaren's Formula One history, as every chassis since 1981 has been labelled MP4.
Reviews of the model confirmed that McLaren had achieved what they set out to do with their new car. Evo Magazine stated: "It's faster than a Ferrari 458 Italia, has more useable performance, rides better, has more mechanical grip and is much, much more useable."

This particular 2012 McLaren MP4-12C was ordered new in right-hand and delivered to Hong Kong. However it was not registered there and remained in a private collection before being imported and registered in the UK in September 2018. The car is in standard specification and is finished in White with a Carbon Black leather interior.
In December 2018 the car was sent to McLaren Bristol where it received a service and is now showing 6, 000 miles on the odometer. All taxes paid and now supplied with a UK V5c and MOT tested until 2nd April 2019, this car represents an opportunity to own one of the world’s more competent and seamless supercars.
