Evora at Murray Motor Co Edinburgh - 28th and 29th March 09

[Graeme]

Hi all

Just a quick note to let you know - we've got an Evora in our Edinburgh showroom for an open event this weekend, Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th March (9am-5pm Saturday, 12pm-5pm Sunday). I've posted this in the Events section too - this is an open showroom event, so even if you're not in the market and just want to see a final production car in the flesh, or even have one on order at another dealer (!), please come along and see us.

Look forward to seeing both you and the car!

Best regards

Will it be a RHD? So far they have all been LHD

The white VP1 car that several of us have sat in at Hethel is RHD and it was that car accompanying the Lotus Roadshow at Castle Lotus recently. I'd heard there were several orders for white with red leather via Murray Motors, so fingers crossed Graeme has got VP1 for you. I don't think Scott at B&C knew which car was coming last Saturday until it turned up - the silver car had come back from testing somewhere across the Channel the day before.

Hi Graeme,

I will be in tomorrow for a nosey.

See you then!

A big thank you to Graeme Robertson at Murray Motor Co for encouraging the factory to send up the orange pre-production car for the weekend, fresh from cold-weather testing. I'm sure VP09 (for the anoraks ) felt right at home with given the bracing winds in Edinburgh the past couple of days.

Having seen a few of the earlier cars, in the more restrained shades, I can honestly say what a difference a bold colour makes. Chrome Orange highlights a much more striking design, with previously missed details and the overall shape coming to life much more than before, and so much better than any printed or screen picture can capture.

I'm not going to go on about the car - there has been enough of that on the site already, without me repeating here, although like the rest of you, I await with interest the forthcoming press reviews and subsequent test drives.

What is a certainty is that at some stage over the next 12 months, Mr Robertson will sell me another car, and this time I'm sure it will be an Evora, and it'll have anthracite wheels.

Thanks again to Graeme for organising this, and to the factory for taking the time out of their schedule to have the car in Scotland for the weekend.
