Evora Sport 410

[scotty435]

Central lotus have a 410 demo in and sure they can do back to test for you, they are a good dealership 

[Snoopy1969]

In new evo it is mentioned that JMG said that nearly the first year production of the 410 should be sold (150 in 2016? Probaly 150 from autumn 2016 up to autumn 2017?)

[SFO]

Does anyone have the price list and options prices for the 410?

[Stubox]

That'll be £82,000 and the options

Happy Christmas ? ? ? 

[SFO]

thanks /\

[JayEmm]

I simply dont believe they have sold 150 of them already, the whole of America only has about 250 400s and those aren't all sold

[Andrew C]

Let's just say our JMG has more spin than a spinning top on Christmas Day .

150 sold.? 

[SFO]

I reckon they will struggle to shift 150 410s per year world wide

First time I have seen a Lotus ad in CAR magazine - January 17 issue

I agree considering the 2 only stock 410s are still up for sale. Not exactly been snapped up. 

But then if I was paying that money I would be okay to wait for my perfect spec. I.e spec my new car and suck up the build time.

Yep, but wasn't that well received:

You really need to drive a car before to buy it?

Look strange to don't have the same option list in france (no full alcantara weel, titanium exhaust...)

Cheaper in the U.K. ?

[Babas89]

Yes

 

The toxic green is now on sale in belgium

I don't like the full option model where is the interest compare to a standart 400 ?

Looks good in the Toxic Green. Not sure I would get wife approval on that though. My desired colour would be flame red. Although I think liquid yellow would look awesome on this car. 

[RJB]

It's here - still running in of course but it's hard and focussed, just what I wanted but certainly different to the S and the 400! Seat comfortable enough on a 4 hour trip yesterday, can't wait to give it some more revs soon.

The build quality definately the best of the 3 I have had - the tail gate is an absolute work of art and seems to be a lot lighter than the stated 2kg saving on the old one.

Big trip across Spain coming up - will let you know how it does....

[JayEmm]

I expected it's a much bigger than 2KG saving over the old tailgate?

[The Pits]

Many congratulations Richard. Some pics wouldn't go amiss when you get the chance!

I'm currently thinking this colour with black decals and a green '410 Sport' logo but would probably also go for green when it came down to it!

I would imagine that Mica Yellow would be far from cheap! Nice all the same and honours the original Lotus Sport car.

Lol, I've bought many cars before driving them. Damn, even bought a VX220 in September before I knew whether I could get my fat arse and belly into the damn thing...  Just added to the buying experience when I slotted my freshly buttered buttocks between the seat sides!

@achaddy 360 vs 400 comparison video?

 

I was looking at 360s when a good manual one was 40K, they've gone mad. I think you would really love the 400. The Exige is great too but a totally different car.

I just realised there was a question in that post.

I'm game!

[RJB]

That would be an awesome combination Jonny - am loving the green too. Had forgotten how much attention the Evora gets - had 4 people walk up to ask about the car at different times today! Here she is sat in the garage - will try and get some better shots on the drive south 

[The Pits]

What a gorgeous thing! I just love the whole concept of an 'RS' version of the Evora.

Did anyone of your admirers know what it was?

I'm currently struggling to work out why it appeals to me more than the Exige Sport 380, especially given how much I still enjoy and adore my current Exige.

The thought of parting with that car is all that's really holding me back right now.

Where on earth are all the videos though (same goes for the Sport 380)? How could any journalist worth a dime not stick a Go Pro in the during his test drive?! Watching Youtube videos has become a vital part on the path to purchase now but Lotus know that right?

A number of members here including myself would happily come to Hethel at short notice and at our own expense to provide an instant remedy.

[RJB]

A couple of ladies liked the colour, an older gentleman used to have a 7 - 1 chap knew the Evora but not the 410 and another didn't know Lotus did a larger car than the Elise! Usual thing! 

Also tempted by the 380 but having had 2 x Evoras I feel I would miss the space - such as it is - can't wait to take it on a good run. Will be close to the track in Jerez next month.....

 

[The Pits]

Before having driven either of them I have the 410 ahead of the Exige 380 in terms of desirability for reasons that are not entirely obvious to an Exige devotee like myself.

Jerez, now there's a track... what a prospect!

It is precisely because Lotus are totally ignorant of that fact that I am doing what I am doing. Judging by the response, it seems a lot of people were also looking for the content.

I'm doing my best to get a 410 for review but I don't know if or when it will happen. In the meantime I am just glad they are actually getting the cars out there.
