Hello to everybody!

Last year I found out that there is o n e mid-engined car on the market that has a 2+2 option - just the right mix of practicability and sports car (please do not ask what I think of a F Mondial.....) and that also tick all the boxes I was looking for, great handling, stunning looks etc. Also that the car is not very widespread in Germany and is not categorized in one minute is a plus in my eyes - in Munich where I work I have seen more McLarens than Evoras, not to mention F 458 etc. So after the test drive in January I ordered the car the same day (fast decisions are good decisions) and finally - after getting used to start the day reading all the "nice" threads in GB, USA and Germany concerning the situation in Hethel - it was delivered 13 days ago, Evora S, frost blue, imperial leather. I am very very satisfied with her, not any issue so far. Of course living in a small town near Munich where the common car is a small or medium or large BMW.....I had to answer s o m e questions, one question that arrives every time: Why did you buy t h a t sort of car - simple answer: because I like the car the way it is and wife / daughter / dog can go with me!

All the best to everybody!
Willi

I'm in Munich this week, I'll keep an eye out for you :welcome:

Nice colour - my very first drive in a Stevens Esprit was a mates Glacier Blue SE way back in 1991. A very similar colour. Enjoy.
