Open-top through Mougins toward Grasse hilltop light
- 2022

- 720 hp
From €1,600 per day.
Two McLaren spiders make up this Cannes selection, and each is built for the top-down hours between morning and early evening, when the Croisette light is best and the roads west toward the Esterel coast are still calm before the afternoon SUV traffic sets in. The 720S Spider carries 720 hp and seats two, retractable roof folded flat, its low nose suited to the D6098's sweeping bends past Mandelieu and Théoule-sur-Mer, where the sea sits close alongside the road and pull-offs give a clear view down to the water. The Artura Spider rounds out the pair as the more everyday-usable of the two, a car that handles hotel forecourt arrivals on Boulevard de la République or a Sunday run inland toward Mougins with less drama but the same open-air appeal. Both cars are convertibles by design, not coupés with a removable panel, so the coastal-drive brief applies literally: put the roof down at the hotel and keep it down through Antibes or up toward Grasse without needing to stop. Rates start at €1600 per day, and handover is arranged at the pickup point that suits the itinerary — a named Croisette hotel, Cannes station for a TGV arrival, or the Mandelieu Airport apron for guests coming in by private jet. Given the narrow lanes around Le Suquet, either spider is a better fit for old-town streets than a wider SUV, and drivers on-site can advise on which of the two suits a specific route before the keys change hands. Standard rental conditions apply, including a security deposit and insurance briefing at handover; ask when booking for the details relevant to your dates.
