McLaren's Super Series twin-turbo V8 mid-engined supercar, the highest-volume McLaren on NZ used-market finance applications.
Last reviewed: 23 April 2026
The 720S is McLaren's Super Series twin-turbo V8 mid-engined supercar produced from 2017 to 2023 and replaced by the 750S. Its 4.0L M840T V8 delivers 720 PS and the car sits on McLaren's Carbon MonoCage II monocoque. NZ supply is spread across Giltrap McLaren Qualified stock, Auckland-based private sales among enthusiast owners, and a substantial UK-import flow on 2017 to 2020 cars that has widened the NZ used-market pool. Lender treatment is consistent across NZ-new and well-documented UK-imported 720S stock, with a rate premium applied to thin-history imports and any car with recorded carbon-monocoque repair. Spider (retractable hardtop) variants appeared from 2019 and trade at a modest premium to coupe equivalents.

Financing notes
At $340,000 across a 4-year term at an indicative 10.0% specialist asset-finance rate, the weekly lands around $1,980, or roughly $8,600 a month. Shortening to 3 years pushes the weekly to roughly $2,545 but cuts total interest by more than a third. 720S residuals sit in the standard-run McLaren band at 55 to 70% at three years from new, so specialist lenders typically prefer 3 to 4 year terms with a 35 to 45% deposit rather than 5-year structures. On UK-imported 720S stock, budget specialist pre-purchase inspection including carbon-monocoque assessment and HPI verification before any finance commitment.
Model-specific questions
On a well-documented UK-imported 720S with full McLaren main-dealer service history and clean HPI, yes, and the purchase-price saving (typically $25,000 to $60,000 below Giltrap Qualified) can more than offset the 0.5 to 1 percentage point typical finance-rate premium. On a thin-history or previously-repaired UK car, the rate premium grows and specialist lenders frequently decline, which often leaves the Giltrap Qualified path as the safer finance route.
On finance directly, no: specialist asset-finance lenders generally do not track track-day activity. On insurance, track-day cover requires a specific add-on or a specialist track-day policy separate from standard agreed-value cover; most standard agreed-value policies exclude circuit use. Budget track-day insurance separately if the 720S is used on circuits, and confirm track coverage with a specialist motor insurer (Star Insure, Vero Specialist Vehicles) before any track event.

Disclaimer
A car loan is a commitment that runs for years, and repayments come out of the same pay cheque as everything else. Before committing, it is worth modelling the weekly and monthly cost against the household budget, which is what this site is built to help with. Borrowing at a level that stays comfortable on a bad week, not a good one, is widely regarded as the safer frame.
Carfinance.org.nz earns a commission from a partner brand when a visitor applies through this site and their application is approved. That commission is paid by the partner, not the applicant, and it does not influence the rate the lender offers. We refer every visitor to the same partner because they compare multiple New Zealand lenders on the applicant's behalf, so the recommendation is not driven by a sponsored deal. Every figure shown on this site is a modelled estimate based on the inputs entered; the actual rate, fees, and repayments are set by the lender after assessing the applicant's circumstances and own credit decision. Carfinance.org.nz is a calculator and information tool. We are not a lender, not a broker, and not a registered financial adviser. Any decision about whether a specific loan suits a specific situation is best made after talking with the lender, and for amounts that materially affect the household, with a registered financial adviser.
