EGTE

I do wonder if the variable valve-timing won't struggle with such a thicker spec.

Wouldn't have happened on a Porsche.....oh wait!

Thats' quite a change of spec!

Yes, probably right.

One minor correction: Octane magazine actually stated that the Evora was the best hydraulically-assisted steering of any car, ever!

Did some research: The big causes of spun bearings are: Bad tune causing detonation which hammers the bearings flat and screws up the clearances (more often than not a bad tune will crack a piston ringland before it will cause you to spin a bearing) Low oil pressure - this can be caused by low oil, a cracked oil pickup tube, or too much high lateral G driving pushing the oil to one side of the pan and starving the pickup tube Using oil that is too thin to protect the motor adequately

Yes indeed, but it makes sense to stick to the "design language" of the Evija. There will be a queue for "OO7" 0 number plates, I bet!

At that price, I'd definitely want a 12-month warranty. Or you haggle it down on price and buy your own, if it's been for sale a while. It's not massively over-priced, didn't mean to imply that.

Seems over-priced to me. https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201909051894395

I find my 2bular a little TOO loud, to be honest. Thinking of going back to standard (Sports exhaust) Must be getting old 🙂

Thanks, Jaws.

That Octane piece was fantastic. Show it to everyone. Which month did the EVO article come out please? I missed it.

Hardly a catastrophic list.

Great assessment and a lovely-looking car.

Yikes! Mine's really bad right now.

Pirellis seem really prone to this, especially in the winter. Wish my fronts were wear our quicker, so I can change them to Michelins 😀

Well I like it!

I went with a Pioneer too and it's been great.

Just a wild guess, but I believe faulty batteries can do things like this. Try a different one?

Sounds like air in the system?

I wonder if clearing out the ventilation holes on the disks might improve this?

Thought it was funny that you asked "watt now". Subliminal?

Same on the NA in my experience.

They'd better be damned good for that money!
