Congrats.........pics when you get it are compulsory by the way........lol

welcome........and Im not sure if anyones mentioned it yet...... we do like a good pic......

Thanks Angus......... so its gone to paint...........I now have to ramp up my search for the right colour........ it is lagoon blue.......but Ive seen so many pics of lagoon blue and they all look very different.......... I would like it to look like this one or the elan +2

theres a solar yellow with everything on it with 13k on it at Paul Mattys the only problem is its a 'S'............but its seems to be the fist low mileage bold coloured Evora....... the others seem to be either blacks/greys or high miles....... https://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/lotus/evora/lotus-evora-s-sports-racer-4-v6/9818068

I am looking at doing this too........Volvo V60 T5r......... Im not sure why I keep looking then deciding its a bad idea as its only a rental.......and not 'mine' my brain wont get round the 'mine at the end of the day scenario' Ive always bought if I wanted something.............and I know Im paying the depreciation............oh I dunno

@Kimbersgot owt int Volvo line?......

Andy welcome to TLF and good luck finding your car.........you will love the Evora.......its addictive in any of its forms as Bibs says...get over to Oakmere (Chris Neils as was).........Steve or Simon should be able to help........ cheers G

John The base and arm are chrome but the body of it is black....... Lots of pics of the same mirrors seem to be black.......but I'm just checking Lol

Ah you're emigrating.......

oh....just an FYI........they reckon 90~100 hrs labour........ material is about £400 for the leather

as you're in Essex and Im in Derbyshire I fear the cost of shipping might be a bit prohibitive ........ Peter Lenton.........and a quote of £2500 to £3000
