Mclaren 720S cars licensed in Great Britain at the end of each year
There were not enough MOT tests of Mclaren 720S cars in 2025 to publish reliable figures: we need at least 1,000 tests of cars aged three and over. Cars have their first MOT at three years old, so newer models appear once they reach that age. How we work out MOT figures.
Mclaren 720S registrations over time
Registrations of Mclaren 720S cars for the first time in Great Britain peaked at 272 in 2018. In 2025, 1 were registered. With almost none registered new, the number on the road is likely to keep falling.

Official figures from laboratory type-approval tests. VCA says they may not be achieved in
real-world driving, and should not be used to rank cars with similar figures.
NEDC figures (in VCA’s data until September 2018) and WLTP figures (from the 2019 guide)
come from different tests, so they are shown separately and should not be compared.
Engine sizes are rounded to the nearest 0.1 litre. A version is one line in
VCA’s data (description, gearbox, engine and fuel), counted once however many years it was
listed.
Matched from VCA’s model name “720S”. How we use VCA’s figures.

A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Mclaren 720S. The details come from manufacturers through DVSA, which says they may be delayed or
incomplete. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check or ask the manufacturer or a
dealer. How we match recalls to models.
