Is that the silverstone one? Bloody love that colour combo.

No not silverstones, they have red bits on that one. Mine is all green black and yellow.  Mandi

Jesus, JayEmm posted forty bagillion gazillion times before buying a 400, Mandi swoops in and BOOM, first post, I've bought an Evora. Now that's the kind of no nonsense approach we need around here! 

Superb looking car Mandi, leather or alcantara?

[JayEmm]

Sounds like an impulse buy to me

[Kalli]

Sounds like jealousy to me.

 

[JayEmm]

Fellas enjoying his 400, I am VERY jealous!

Superb looking car Mandi, is the yellow 400 badge on the back a factory item or has that been done by the dealer?

Canyon Red (pinky metallic)

With enough people, couldn't we get pink to be the new black? (or maybe fuchsia?)

Leather seats and factory done my yellow 400 badge.  I did want yellow stitching on seats but that wasn't possible ,. But I did get my yellow band on steering wheel ( my finishing touches)

[Stuno1]

why can't they offer any colour stitching you want??? That baffles me. The chance to personalise a car like this from new is surely one of the big draws?? Epic motor all the same. 

[Trevsked]

Congratulations on the new car Mandi, looks lovely.

 

Trevor.

Car looks great Mandi.  

You should duck over to the Introductions thread and say hi in there as well.

I thought they were offering it as part of the exclusives program? It's even in the price list.

The 410 Sport show car has yellow stitching, looks awesome.

The yellow rear badge really is a nice touch with the other badging and calipers.

Absolutely agree. It made me wonder whether you could also do the mirrors in yellow, then the black part of the front spoiler lip and the black part of the rear spoiler... Then I thought this might be too OTT, but I'd like to see it to know for sure.

[Colin G]

I'm going to say OTT, John. 

[JayEmm]

I just noticed that your car is non-black pack @Mandi177 - very nice to see those. I'm normally on the fence with green cars but for some reason is always works on a Lotus...

I think you're right Colin and subtle 'accents' is often best with styling. I still like to see the less restrained liveries sometimes though.

I think too much yellow would of been over the top.  

 

Mirrors in yellow it would start to look like the Aston Martin N430 !!!!

@TBD unfortunately I'm even more attached to her than the car, so she stays. 

@Whitey Ha! The way you wrote the post I just assumed! My other half has asked if I'll be rolling up to the wedding in mine, so it's not totally out of the day, she just doesn't want to be posing on it!

Colin, - if turning up in it - and wearing a kilt on the day be careful!  Not the easiest cars to get in and out of in a kilt particularly if a true Scotsman. Makes my wife's day watching me struggle for a change.

for all ladies who drive or passenger in these "stupid cars" (quote SWMBO) regularly wearing skirts.

[Colin G]

I can't believe you'd even ask such questions @Al. Kilt - yes. Underwear - no. Evora 400 - much easier access/egress without exposing the guests to the horrors of my hairy egg sack. 

[Al]

I'd forgotten (how could I?) that you were now the owner of a easy access and egress 400.  That is going to be the big selling point of the Roadster 410 to SWMBO  when the time comes. (the easy entry and exit - not you not exposing yourself) That and man maths  and probably some handbag bribery. 

[C8RKH]

Ah, handbag bribery! Probably quite a few shoes, dresses, perfumes and meals out to Al. You'll need to sell that house you're building to find it all...

Loved this angle as I filled up this morning. Got in a few quick curves first thing - perfect start to the weekend......

A GTE nevers goes unnoticed.

Luverly!   Not surprised it was spotted.  I think that just looks so purposeful in that shot in many ways better than staged photoshoots.  The car in its natural environment.

Stavelot last summer

Nice colour contrasts
