Nice choice if car you've made there.

Welcome to the Evora club!! I am just about to sell mine, but it has been a fantastic car, and 100% reliable in my three years of ownership!!

Evora is the best day to day Lotus I had, great car.

So, Paul what you planning next

Missing my hardcore fix!! Looking at couple of options for next year, poss 211?

The Evora has hardly been used in the last 12 months, just due to circumstances more than anything else, so looking to replace Evora and X5 with a semi serious day to day road car ( 335d xdrive touring) and a hardcore toy!

Still got a choice of Landies for the winter months!!

Quite recently, the saloon has been out since July, and the 335d touring 4x4 gets launched next month.

0-60 in 4.9 secs!!! Seriously quick for a diesel !

AFAIK BMW have done 4x4 3 series for years, just not for the UK market. I guess their reputation in the snow in recent winters has damaged their sales, so they have re-thought that decision. Makes sense to me.

A 4x4 high performance deisel BM is a very attractive package!

(Sorry for thread drift)

That is seriously quick.

Hi Paul, I saw that posting. Glad to say however that you aren't deserting us or hopefullly the Breakfast Club gatherings. (which have been a bit sparse of late due to Brian & my circumstances been making life difficult )

Back on original thread with congratulations on the purchase. As a serial Evora buyer and on my 4th since launch (Don't ask but all 'logical' - well at least in my head - and not the cars to blame!) you have made a good decision.

Have you been over on the 'other forum' (The Lotus Forums) where there is a big Evora technical section for help and advice with lots posted about exhausts and when there, if you go into the regional section you can sign up for LEGS (Lotus Enthusiast Group Scotland) section where many of us here also lurk then you will get PM's about other wider happenings although usually posted on here as well. I am one of the Regional leaders over there and you will be very welcome.
Al.

cheers Al, just seen this on return from holidays (bit of a shock dropping nearly 40 degrees!). I'll have a look at the forum - that's a helpful tip as I do want to tweak the exhaust a little bit. I'll look out for the LEGS section too.
