Hi Folks,
Long time Evora admirer here. After 18 months in and out of lockdown with a Jag sat on my drive that I really liked but didn't say 'Drive Me!' every time I looked at it, I decided it was time to mix things up a bit. So the Jag went and I started looking for something a bit more exciting that would stir the senses a bit...
I had a drive of a friends Evora and it's fair to say I was hooked... He is a self confessed Lotus nut (well known to this forum) and he helped me look for an early Launch Edition and answered any queries I had about what the strengths and weaknesses were. (his list of possible/known issues was brutally honest and I actually suggested he should start writing horror stories)
I found a car I was interested in, it has a comprehensive service history with Craig Moncrief and after numerous conversations with the owner and Craig I took a trip up to Edinburgh and ended up driving it home to Warwickshire. In all honesty in the build up I had a few sleepless nights wondering if I was doing the right thing as I was naturally bothered about buying a car that I would end up throwing money at. (having run new Jags that were under warranty for the last 8 years)
I got it home, (great drive back bar the boring bits of the M6) and have given it a good clean, machine polished bits that were bugging me and have compiled a list of stuff I want to get sorted. (all cosmetic really)
Anyway, this is the result... (you may recognise it from the launch edition register thread) Here's to many, fun filled miles....
Cheers,
Mike.
