[Man with a plan!]

Hi All!

I've been a Lotus fan for many years and driven a few Elises during that time, but I've yet to own one :-(

Thankfully, in a few months I'm going to change that - I'm currently thinking about an Evora, probably an NA sports racer.  It wont be a daily but rather a pride and joy to enjoy at weekends :-)

I'm doing lots of research at the moment and keeping an eye on the market - I'm quite impressed that prices seem to have stayed quite level for a few years now, so I'm hoping my budget of £30k will get a good one!

 

In the meantime, if anyone has any tips I'm all ears, I've got a couple of links from you guys on here already - I've been on other motoring forums (Civinfo!) and this one seems really friendly which is great and there's a lot more Lotus coverage on YouTube of late (mostly thanks to JayEmm I think, if you've not seen his videos, you need to check them out!!!)

I'm Hampshire based too and keen to hear of any good driving roads in this part of woods!

 

Looking forward to getting to know you all. Dean

[Wanted Evora N/A]

Thanks - I will do :-)

haha brilliant - and thanks for the quick reply!  I hadn't realised this!  in which case, I'll only be looking for a retrim depending on condition then :-)

[Wanted Evora N/A]

Wow! I'm basically in the same position as you now, looking for a Sports Racer NA (2+2), though I'll consider an S at the right price(!).  Ultimately not too fussed on colour though my favourites is Solar Yellow.

How has your search gone?  I'd appreciate any hints or tips you may have for things to look out for, things to check etc.

And this is what a re-covered My10/11 wheel looks like and to be honest, I think it beats the other two for looks and at £125 job done a bloody bargain. But then, I am of course, biased!

My one was nappa leather, perforated leather and red leather strip and red stitching detail. You can choose what ever colour/style you want including alcantara, colours (wheel and strip), etc.

Hi - can I ask where you got yours done from?  That's a great price I think it looks brilliant.  Even though I do sit on the alcantara fence ;-)

Now I am happy the interior is complete. Goes perfectly with the suedetex interior. 

 

Ill list my MY2013 wheel this weekend ?

May I ask how much / where from your 400 wheel was?

I'm thinking of getting an Evora (probably a Sports Racer) and I'm already starting a list of mods...!

 

Thanks in advance!
