Popular Post mayevora 1,363 Posted December 19, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 (edited) Huge thanks to Bibs who spent the day in dreadful traffic and weather to pick up and deliver this stunning Sport Racer to Devon. I am so happy to be have found the perfect Evora and the perfect car I’ve desired for the last couple of years. It is a mint 4 years old normally aspirated car with 7800 Miles. I know I’m going to enjoy this car immensely. Big thanks also to the seller who is on this forum - it’s been a long fortnight for me since you agreed the sale 😁👍 Just the dry roads and good weather required now. Happy Happy Happy 😃 2.5 hour sleep now and alarm call at 4.15am to get Bibs to the airport. 😴 Edited December 19, 2018 by mayesprit 19 6 Quote Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk - that will teach us to keep mouth shut!

Gold FFM Colin P 733 Posted December 19, 2018 Gold FFM Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 Lovely. @Bibs taking precautions so it doesn’t smell of raspberries I see. 🤣 Time to put some miles on it though. Mines half the age and over twice the mileage. Enjoy. 2 Quote A Lotus is for driving, pork is for breakfast. Link to post Share on other sites
mik 391 Posted December 19, 2018 Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 Incidentally - What does “proudly hosted on photobucket” mean on your pics? That you paid the ransom fee? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mayevora 1,363 Posted December 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 In all honesty - I have no idea lol. I would suspect I need to pay them if I want the photo hosters to remove it - maybe 🤔 Quote Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk - that will teach us to keep mouth shut!

Popular Post pete757 158 Posted December 19, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 Ho Ho Ho! Never thought I would be your Santa Ian! So pleased that you love the car... very sad to see it go, only after a brief 9 months of ownership, but loved every minute of that! For those on here... the decision to sell was that my missus has never been into any of my Lotus's of the last 18 years... and I was feeling the pinch from her to get away from the money in the Evora... and to put into that well known high performance, sublime handling British sports car... ... a Morgan! 🤣 LOL! So that is what is now ahead for me! I will of course post the obligatory picture when that day happens, but the car below gives the general idea! In the meantime, great to meet our esteemed leader Bibs... and I will of course continue to 'lurk' here on this great forum. Looking forward to hearing your adventures with the car Ian... hope your missus likes it! Cheers all, Pete. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
