No, built for the directors to assess the MY12 changes for final signoff. Photography and road use only. Just stunning inside and out.

Would it matter in 1,100 miles?

Plus it would not have been even taken up to max revs in that mileage. Most of ours have been doing it for years. Also there must be a guarantee of at least two years.

If I was looking for an Evora and was happy with red, i would be in there like a hairy snake, and that is even without bargaining.

Surely it can not hang around for long Graeme, unless I am missing something?

I would not think so - I signed off its releaase to the dealer in question, it's one of the nicest Evoras in the UK, and totally unique. And as I have no vested interest (unlike the old days) I can say that kind of stuff on here now!! :wink:

Don't get me wrong Graeme, I think that is a fantastic/beautiful Evora, even more so at that price (was just a bit suspicious of £75k to £49k drop in 1100miles)

Are you parting with the 7 ? Or are you on the Andy G car collection trail ? :P
The 7 is staying Philip.... bike will go, not sure about the mk2 Golf as yet, might put that in to storage as it's a great example although if I got the right offer I would let it go.

Maybe Alicia Keys did not like her present from Swiss Beat's after all? She has probably chopped it in for a Prius

Did Bruss on Seloc not say his car (also red with black) matched Dany's?

Won't hang around long at that price anyway. 8)

Just has to be priced like that beacuse it is essentially a MY11 car, and other dealers are selling run-out MY11s at £54-60k new; it's registered and thus has to be cheaper. But the price does not reflect the spec of the car, the MY12 bits (some of which are near-impossible to retrofit), the stunning interior, and the provenance and rarity....as I used to say, "it's the only one like that in...." :wink:

Scary how much handbags cost at Harvey's. Got an envelope through the door that they have a 70% sale on Boxing Day if that saves you some money :shock:

Just as well there is a "no handbag above the cost of a tyre" in our household. Just need to get Craig to substantially reduce the price of the Evora rear tyres now!!
