hedgerley 461 Posted September 1, 2017 Report Share Posted September 1, 2017 Very good review of the Cup 380 in the new EVO. Needless to say they absolutely love it and give it 5 stars, the only negative being its sold out "This Lotus provides more sheer enjoyment than most modern supercars combined" "....this Cup 380 really is one of the best drivers cars at any price" You very lucky people.....

hedgerley 461 Posted September 1, 2017 Report Share Posted September 1, 2017 Subscribers get the issue several days before it hits the newsstand; mine arrived this morning. The review probably won't go online for a week or two I guess. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Vipers 478 Posted September 1, 2017 Report Share Posted September 1, 2017 Yes got my copy of Evo this morning and was pleased to see the glowing review, I like the fact that the only negative point is that it is sold out :-) Ended up being too busy at work today, in fact still here, to collect the my Cup so won't be making it's Brands debut tomorrow unfortunately.

LF1 564 Posted September 3, 2017 Report Share Posted September 3, 2017 What a car. Must say I did think you were nuts getting rid of your beautiful LF1 in exchanged for a 380, but I am coming round.

I'm actually not sure, I would say around 4 weeks? You're dealer should be able to give you an expected delivery date and mine did and it was pretty much spot on, definitely worth asking. 17 hours ago, LF1 said: What a car.

Thanks Tom, Saw a 380 Cup at Brands on Saturday on the Bell & Colvill stand and certainly got no regrets, hoping to collect mine next Monday. I've just started getting into track days, using the Caterham at the moment but the temptation will definitely be there to track the Cup so have to see how next year pans out.

Popular Post Vipers 478 Posted September 13, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 Thanks @DJW, managed to find the time to finally pick it up yesterday evening, rushed home before the rain hit, just want to get it run in now so that I can give it some revs and hear the exhaust as it sounds a little fruity :-) I'll get some pics up over the weekend. 4 Quote Specialists In Quality HiFi For the Home Plus the UK's Only Domestic Motorsport Simulator Showroom [email protected] - 01767 448121 / www.hifilounge.co.uk / www.iloungeracing.co.uk Please Follow My TLF Blog Here - http://www.thelotusforums.com/forums/blog/88-vipers-lotus-and-hifi-blog/ Link to post Share on other sites
geartox 600 Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 this color is awesome. best choice for the moment for my next car Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mark030358 616 Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 until the valve opens they sound like a hair dryer... just my humble opinion... goinf to retrofit my old tubular to my 380 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vipers 478 Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 Yes I always have the valve open, in the past I have always fitted Larini's to my Lotus's, I was hopeful that with the Cup I could keep the stock exhaust as on the Evora is sounds great, have to see how things pan out I guess.
