Very good review of the Cup 380 in the new EVO. Needless to say they absolutely love it and give it 5 stars, the only negative being its sold out 

"This Lotus provides more sheer enjoyment than most modern supercars combined"

"....this Cup 380 really is one of the best drivers cars at any price"

You very lucky people.....

Thanks

It's in the mag - just got mine this morning.  EVO loves the car.

[hedgerley]

Subscribers get the issue several days before it hits the newsstand; mine arrived this morning. The review probably won't go online for a week or two I guess.

@J-P

Thanks! 

Guess can have to wait a week then either way. The magazine won't reach us till at least a week from now.

Looking forward to reading it!

Yes got my copy of Evo this morning and was pleased to see the glowing review, I like the fact that the only negative point is that it is sold out :-)

Ended up being too busy at work today, in fact still here, to collect the my Cup so won't be making it's Brands debut tomorrow unfortunately.

Congrats! You must be really excited to pick it up. Sig orange turned out very nice!

My build date was just yesterday, it's gona be a long wait for me. 

How long does it take usually to assemble?

Congrats Paul, that looks a beaut. Shame I won't be  able to see it tomorrow. Enjoy handover day!

[CRM82]

Beautiful color!

[LF1]

What a car. Must say I did think you were nuts getting rid of your beautiful LF1 in exchanged for a 380, but I am coming round. Are you planning on tracking this?

I'm actually not sure, I would say around 4 weeks? You're dealer should be able to give you an expected delivery date and mine did and it was pretty much spot on, definitely worth asking.

Thanks Tom, Saw a 380 Cup at Brands on Saturday on the Bell & Colvill stand and certainly got no regrets, hoping to collect mine next Monday.

I've just started getting into track days, using the Caterham at the moment but the temptation will definitely be there to track the Cup so have to see how next year pans out.

[DJW]

@Vipers saw your car in Lotus Silverstone today. Looks stunning !!! Very jealous 

First dibs if you ever sell

[Vipers]

Thanks @DJW, managed to find the time to finally pick it up yesterday evening, rushed home before the rain hit, just want to get it run in now so that I can give it some revs and hear the exhaust as it sounds a little fruity :-)

I'll get some pics up over the weekend.

[geartox]

this color is awesome. best choice for the moment for my next car 

[Mark030358]

until the valve opens they sound like a hair dryer... just my humble opinion... goinf to retrofit my old tubular to my 380

[Vipers]

Yes I always have the valve open, in the past I have always fitted Larini's to my Lotus's, I was hopeful that with the Cup I could keep the stock exhaust as on the Evora is sounds great, have to see how things pan out I guess.
