I think the 400 is an absolute steal compared to the alternatives. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gold FFM C8RKH 7,013 Posted April 20, 2017 Gold FFM Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 I'm open to grooming as long as there is ice cream involved somewhere along the way! I agree re the 400 pricing by the way. I think it is very competitive and it's a whole lot of great sports car for the money. 1 Quote Alcohol. Sex. Tobacco. Drugs. Chocolate. Meh!

franjipane 245 Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 I'm going to test drive a 400 and an older Evora at Bell and Colvill tomorrow, can't bloody wait. I need something fun for a slightly longer daily drive than I'm comfortable doing with my Esprit SE already at 70k miles. Someone needs to buy my other Esprit first though, might drop the price to make it go a bit quicker. I'll see how it goes with the Evora's! I've read and watched everything i can find, could not be more excited. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FGA 15 Posted April 22, 2017 Report Share Posted April 22, 2017 Just wanted to say congrats to RG LOT on the 400. It really looks fab! I bet you can't wait to take it towards 5k revs. The exhaust tone changes again as you rev under load towards the limiter. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
franjipane 245 Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 Had a test drive in a 400, an S, and a current Elise. All fantastic, thanks to the folks at Bell and Colvill for being so helpful. Loved the Elise and the Evora S, but the 400 was something else. I thought shifting in the S was great but in the 400 it was so precise it felt digital. Also preferred the cabin and the noise, although i would certainly not be disappointed if i ended up with an S. RG17 your 400 looks amazing in red! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

franjipane 245 Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 Not yet, will go back and discuss options soon gotta see if the budget affords a 400 over an S. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
