Re: Newbie - Indecisive!

When we were out in Ali's car I was asking him if he had the long box - third seemed really long in that so it must be a fair gear in the touring box!

Re: Newbie - Indecisive!

That’s handy!! Aye Craig was great, told me what to look out for and to get on the phone to him if there was anything I was unsure of whilst I was there! Only unknown quantity really is brake and tyre life, could be good or bad I guess depending on how the previous owners drove! Surely should be som...

Re: Newbie - Indecisive!

Thanks again folk for the good feedback. There is an S Sports Racer in white (copying you I think mik by the looks of your pic!) and manual down in Peterborough I’m currently enquiring about.

Re: Newbie - Indecisive!

So after a bit of soul searching, and some sage advice from both Dave and Ali (who very kindly took me out in his car), a lot of test driving of alternative options, and also a visit to Leven Lotus, I have my heart set on an Evora S Sport Racer, manual. Issue being, these are few and far between at ...

Re: Newbie - Indecisive!

There’s a 2010 2+2 at JCT600 Lotus with tech and sport packs and the long box and reverse camera (thought that was a premium pack item). Not my first choice of...

Re: Newbie - Indecisive!

Thanks for all the welcomes and responses folks! I’m waiting to see what Dave’s plan is, but his is the one that has caught my eye! 2+0 would be fine - I can pad the shelf for him and it leaves more space (I suspect), but wouldn’t mind an inertia reel belt to clip him to (maybe the mounting points e...

Newbie - Indecisive!

Hi folks, Recently sold my Golf R as I’ve been looking to scratch an itch for a while and get back into something less sensible whilst I still can (although the Mrs has a sportage for those duties anyway!). Been looking at a variety of machines, and originally quite fancied an S2 Exige or a Cayman b...
