alongside the groundbreaking 650S<br \/>\nUltimate Series: Track-dedicated 1,000PS McLaren P1\u2122 GTR offers access to the world\u2019s most exclusive McLaren ownership programme<br \/>\nThe full three-tier McLaren model range will be displayed publicly in the UK for the first time at the Wilton Classic and Supercar Show. The event, based at the Wilton House estate in Wiltshire takes place 6-7 June 2015, and will see models from the Super Series and Ultimate Series joined by the McLaren 570S Coup\u00e9; the first model in the recently launched Sports Series.<\/p>\n<p>Following the global reveal of the 570S Coup\u00e9 at the New York Auto Show last month, the first and most powerful model in the newly announced Sports Series will be shown publicly in the UK for the first time. The mid-engine sportscar features the lightweight carbon fibre MonoCell II chassis, and a highly efficient 3.8-litre twin turbo V8 engine generating 570PS (562bhp) and 600Nm (443lb) of torque. With a greater focus on day-to-day usability and refinement, this latest model is very much a pure McLaren, boasting a class-leading power-to-weight ratio of 434PS per tonne, and electrifying performance. The 570S Coup\u00e9 accelerates from 0 to 100km\/h (62mph) in just 3.2 seconds, reaches 200km\/h (124mph) in 9.5 seconds, and on to a top speed of 328km\/h (204mph). Pricing for the 570S Coup\u00e9 starts at \u00a3143,250.<\/p>\n<p>The limited edition 675LT will make its UK debut as one of two Super Series models on display, alongside the award-winning 650S Spider. The 675LT generates, as the name implies, 675PS (666bhp) and is the lightest and most track-focused, yet road legal, model in the Super Series. Production of the coup\u00e9-only model is strictly limited to 500 examples worldwide. With a clear focus on light weight, optimised aerodynamics, increased power, track-focused dynamics and driver engagement, the coup\u00e9-only model re-establishes the \u2018Longtail\u2019 heritage. With a top speed of 3330km\/h (205mph), the 675LT accelerates to 100km\/h (62mph) from standstill in 2.9 seconds, and hits 200km\/h (124mph) in just 7.9 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>The 650S is the core model in the Super Series, designed and developed to give the enthusiast driver the ultimate in luxury, engagement and excitement. Fitted with the award-winning 3.8-litre twin turbo V8 engine producing 650PS (641bhp) and 678Nm (500lb ft) of torque, it is a no compromise open-top high performance supercar with optimised levels of performance, handling and driver enjoyment. The secret of its success is its carbon fibre MonoCell chassis, which needs no extra strengthening to provide the necessary rigidity or safety when developing a convertible. This keeps any weight increase to a minimum, meaning the McLaren 650S Spider offers all the enjoyment and driver appeal of the fixed-roof sibling \u2013 but with the added appeal of roof-down driving. The 650S Spider is fitted with an electrically retractable hard top, which can be automatically raised or lowered on the move in less than 17 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>Completing the line-up from McLaren at the annual event will be the McLaren P1\u2122 GTR, representing the Ultimate Series \u2013 the most exclusive and definitive McLaren range. The track-dedicated model is the most powerful built by McLaren to-date, fitted with a 1,000PS (986bhp) powertrain comprising a highly efficient 3.8-litre V8 twin turbo petrol engine generating 800PS (789bhp) together with an integrated lightweight electric motor producing an additional 200PS (197bhp) of instant power. Drivers will also join the world\u2019s most exclusive McLaren ownership programme, and gain unique access to more than 50 years of race winning knowledge and expertise. With access to the world within the McLaren Technology Centre, each driver will have an unparalleled, and completely unique, experience. As race winners and world champions have before them, each driver will embark on a bespoke driver programme designed to hone and optimise driving skills, and learn how to get the best of themselves and the car.<\/p>\n<p>The complete range of McLaren models is available from the network of McLaren retailers across the UK.
