Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2019 Mclaren 570?

The 2019 McLaren 570 is a genuinely reliable performer: a 95.7% first-time MOT pass rate sits well above the UK average of 80%, and only 5.8% of vehicles have ever recorded a dangerous defect. This is a car that holds together properly when it matters most.

These 189 vehicles are running light mileage—just over 13,000 miles on average for a five-year-old car—which partly explains the pristine MOT record, but the real story is in the low failure count of 0.21 per vehicle. Before buying, verify full service history and get a pre-purchase inspection focused on the gearbox and suspension, as these typically account for McLaren's occasional advisory items, and don't let the high pass rate lull you into skipping a specialist check.
