I think that as it is an official model Type and a production car, it should have a place alongside all the others.

I would also like to think that we could attract a couple of owners to discuss what will be a wonderful car. But I could understand if we did not. ;)

In other words, you did it, so suffer the consequences on your own!

Going tomorrow but I've already had a sneaky peek. This for me is one of the most remarkable figure from the press release, I'm not sure many have grasped the significance of it yet - 4.4m long,

Anyone here is completely free to dislike the Evija or any other Lotus. If they dislike all Lotus cars and people I would suggest that there are better places to spend their spare time. Criticism

This may depend on how much they are worth after a year or so, depreciation or appreciation which is more likely. I expect they will suffer from parts on backorder though.

In that case, I could buy one and make a fortune "breaking" it for spares!

That would be quite an investment :D
We would have to paint it red with a couple of yellow bits (and the toolkit would include only a hammer and a sickle)

Imagine the day the car is delivered with the 175 overenthusiastic comrades at Bell & Colvill lol

Maybe we could get 175 tlf member and all put in £10k we could all have the car for two days a year.  Anyone up for doing something mad like that?

If we set up a hypercar rental company, have TLFers sign up as members and borrow the money to buy it we can do it for less 💡

Surely we will need a photo thread in case anyone actually sees one on the road and not just at shows.  Then Barry may need a thread of when he buys the first written off one, which he can they repair.

Ha, it is sooooo funny for me that you posted that anthem up.

Bit of a long standing family joke (not that my wife see's it that way) but whenever me and my son had won a "wee battle" against the female of the species we would stand proud together and sing this to them at the top of our voices!  We had learned the words in Russian too. 

A stupid father / son thing I suppose, but anyone with wife and daughter(s) in the house knows you have to celebrate any and every victory that the male of the species can get over the women!

I just had to let that video play all the way to the end, PC speaker on, just so I could hear the wife cuss "oh for fook's sake....."

You don't wanna do this believe me! I get Peugeot 208's back with £8000 worth of damage! Imagine getting an Evija back that's been used for County Lines!

Awww 😕
Sorry about that.

That looks like a common thing though. Although I really don't understand it. I mean, it's not an Atom. And even then, a bit of curiosity won't hurt

I am going to listen to more soviet music just for you!

Oh, and great photo. Is that all 4 wheels spinning as they are all powered?

Do they time the runs up the hill?

What were the times for the Emira and the Evija and how do they stack up against other cars like the Evora etc?

Turbos? It has turbos on the electric motors? Another first for Lotus!

Maybe the motors flip from Star to Delta windings and that's what they mean? (I think that is right?)

I didn't mind the shape of the 911 to be truthful from when I was much younger, but I have to be brutally honest, the Taycan is ugly.
