Default P1 Owners To Be
After seeing the P1 a few times now, have decided to go ahead and put down a deposit. When you put the P1 next to the F1, the heritage and shared DNA is very clear. Very much looking forward to the whole journey to ownership.

Excellent news - quite pleased for your decision.

Can't wait for first impressions behind the wheel as someone who has considerable experiences with which to compare.

Boxer,

Congratulations!

Funny.
I was thinking about potential P1 owners a few days ago, and had a feeling that she might be too much to resist for you. What a remarkable car.

Enjoy!

Congrats Boxer!!!!!!

A couple of questions-

What is the deposit timeline like? Do you owe another sum when you spec the car, or just the whole balance when you take delivery.

What is avidsquare?

Thanks and cheers!

Deposit down now, another payment due when you spec the car (2x the deposit), and tnen balance on delivery.

AvidSquare is a private petrolhead/pistonhead community. Right now it is in beta. Should be ready in a couple of weeks. Idea is you can communicate in one place both privately with friends and publicly on the forums as it pulls the feeds directly from McLarenLife & FerrariLife etc.

Well done and congratulations. The P1 thinking seems so much more advanced than the LaF car it is comical. Hope you love it. Color?

Boxer, I have a suspicion that you have started on a great journey.

It seems the looks/dna swayed you some? Understandable.

When do you expect delivery?

I'm truly truly envious Boxer, I can only imagine being the proud owner of something as spectacular as the P1. I know I may sound like a whore (which i am, not) for having mention this to treynor in the P1-F1 successor discussion. You know what they say there's no harm in trying, that said boxer I'd be more than willing to become your best, bestest friend. So you know where I'm heading with this don't you, get me one of these babies and I'll be on your doorstep in a P1 flash. Jokes.... Congrats on your amazingly new acquisition, and please show everyone out there in the real world what a real supercar is all about. Please keep us all posted on the whole experience of owning something this unique. In so doing that truly deserves a great bottle of vintage wine, a La Chateau Lafite Rothschild to celebrate the moment and many more to come. Cheers......🍷🍷

Seeing it in the "CF" and understanding both the thought and technology that has gone into the P1 development.

McLaren take the time to explain the car, technology, and sell you on why it is the best.

The "other" people expect you to just pay up as you have been given the privilege of buying a car from them.

I have asked for one of the later cars so likely early 2015.
