So it is. Would not have gone for silver, but it was a 135 so no choice :roll:

If I was being pedantic, I would point out that mine is not actually silver, it is very (very) slightly blue :lol:

That one has been for sale for about a year at various garages. Was down at £27500 at one point. I guess the higher than average mileage (for these cars) and lack of Sports pack are doing it no favours..

I believe the colour is actually Storm Titanium.

Here's a cheap one one - no service history:

Private sale evoras (evori?) or ones from a specialist seem to really struggle..... Whereas mmc can't get enough of them and sell them before they hit the website. With such a specialist car I'm not sure I'd spend money anywhere other than a lotus dealer.

I wouldn't hesitate to, but I'd have it looked over by MMC first.
