Wheels are from Rimstock: they might not want to make another batch, but there are other supply options for different designs if necessary.
FYI, Rimstock are no longer trading. If you want to keep the OEM look, you would have to find another supplier to produce replica wheels.

Are they all ally belled or were they an option originally?
Yes, all 400s came with ali belled discs. So, I’m theory, only the discs themselves will need replacing.
elise-shop.com offer an aftermarket option for Exige V6s: https://www.elise-shop.com/elise-shop-com-front-brake-rotors-exige-v6/ It might be worth asking them if there is a 400 option as well.

…Details…
I am happy that I might well ‘stand corrected’.
Unfortunately, an email to Andy Graham will probably not suffice anymore. You might have to go the ‘whole hog’ and invest in one of these:

(I think that you also get Gold FFM with it). 🤞

The 18/19” wheels are the first giveaway (unless they have been changed at a later date). The placement of the Union flag badges also doesn’t look quite right.
Do your seats have the red piping?

I have a lhd S with IPS in Nightfall Blue
Your car isn’t a ‘Sports Racer’, I’m afraid, Hal. Maybe you need another thread… 😉

Would like to add a smaller front plate but the plinth is quite large, has anyone tried to address this?
Yes.
Remove the plinth and attach a smaller plate to 2 of the existing screw holes. I also used some Velcro tape behind the bottom edge of the plate for added security.

Collected my IPS S Daytona Blue Sports Racer yesterday
Welcome.
Is that the Martin Donnelly (company) car? I can’t remember if he had an IPS or a manual. Either way, ISTR that there weren’t many made in that blue.

Looks to me like the suspension has collapsed all round. Maybe that’s why it’s so cheap?
Not necessarily ‘collapsed’. Maybe just adjusted too low?

…so I’d say it’s got limited appeal.
It has also got Ohlins and a remap (so might be putting out 430bhp+)

It looks like the switch panel only comes as a single item:

There’s a number plate in the picture??? 🫣😊

What is the clutch life on the 400? Is it the same as the regular Evora S?
Yes. It’s hard to put a number on it (too many variables) but it is reasonable to expect 50k+ miles out of one.

Any differences between that and 390? Or 350 vs 390?
Yes. A totally different supercharger and exhaust system.
Exige V6 = Evora S.
Exige 390/FE = Evora 400.

A link would be worth ‘a thousand words’! 😉
But, is it a TVRGlen listing, by any chance?

How many EVORA owners are hanging onto their car and not going to an EMIRA

They have, in principle. But still not trading.
