Thanks everyone for the continued helpful replies!

Callum - thanks for the offer but I don't want to go near an S, I'll probably start to want one!

Kenny - I saw yours on PH - lovely car but not keen on the colour I'm afraid!

SpyderM - thanks for the heads up! Could be just what I'm looking for. I'll give Brandon a shout in the morning. Is yours the grey SR that has been in the showroom, with the dark red leather? Sat in it at the weekend with the girlfriend, that car changed her mind about being seen in one!

i've had my evora 2+2 for 6 months or so now and love it. previously i had an exige s and prior to that a cayman s and an elise. the evora is not as brains out as the exige on normal day to day driving but can be if you push it and want to have some fun. unlike the exige it's comfortable and you can listen to the radio and talk to the passenger while driving over bumps without loosing s tooth. it's something along the lines of a the love child between my cayman and the exige if i think about it.

having the whacky races exige previously i figured that i'd get no attention at all in the evora but not so - people still point and stare and ask questions about the car when your parked up and still want to get their photo taken for it. also its been to 3 proms this year (i've been to none) as my mates kids want to arrive in style.

never for a second regretted getting it but like someone else said it took a few miles to figure the car out having came from the exige. also i've driven down to manchester and london several times and do use it as a daily runner without any issues at all.

Collected today - terrible weather and terrible traffic, but hoping to get a good run in it tomorrow. First impressions - brilliant! Will get some photos when the weather clears up, but in the meantime, Brandon put a pic up on the MMC facebook page earlier :)
