New Car

Post by c8rkh » Sun Apr 08, 2018 4:11 pm

After 3 wonderful years I've sold my 2010 Evora NA +0 in Ardent Red. To replace it I have bought another red Evora +0! :shock:

This time the Evora Sport 410 in Fire Red from Lotus Silverstone.

Have to say after 2 days of ownership and 300 miles in mixed weather conditions and o mixed roads it is a very impressive car and the build quality is superb.

I can even just about get my bid wide fat arse into the carbon bucket seats and once in it just feels superb.

Hope to see many of you around Scotland's fine roads as i pile the miles on.

Holy smoke that's fantastic news!

Great colour choice too

Are you feeling the love from a supercharger then? All the cool kids seem to be getting those

I got the VX220 Supercharged in December - but unlike the that one, the Evora 410's Supercharger is not heard! Power delivery is sublime and smooth.

I've gone from two NA's to two Supercharged cars in 4 months....

Congratulation.
I think Fire Red is a great colour for a Lotus.

Enjoy!!

You could be called a whine connoisseur.. :cheers

If you installed a proper airbox on the VX, you will all but eliminate the whine there too. Kinda misses the point though IMO..
