Just discovered this thread. Had my 2013 manual Sports Racer S (venom red) for a while, always felt it would become the equivalent of the Turbo Esprit HC... the most desirable and developed of the original style

Hi, I think I should offically say hello, as I can finally stop being a serial lurker! I have always loved Lotus cars and grew up an easy cycle ride from the factory. My friend and I were caught

It's been a while coming, but one to add to the Sports Racer club 🙂 These Evora's are great cars!!

2015 motorsport green S. Just bought it and it’s mint! Awesome thing, at least as good as the magazine reviews say.

Must admit, I've not taken a lot of photos (I'm usually driving it!) But I also haven't posted in here yet. This car is also further back in the thread but different owner.

NA SR one of two in Aspen white.

As it appears to be Aspen white SR Sunday, here’s one of mine after it’s wash yesterday....

Sorry I missed the messages. I too got mine from the company in the US but via a pal who lives out there. Worked out pricy with that crazy US to UK shipping and duty too 😳

Thanks all for the replies, they do look great but potentially rather expensive for us here in the UK if clobbered with all the additional duties. I have tried making something similar myself using Correx infill panels but whilst they did the job the Correx does tend to bow a little when it gets warm so I'll have to have a go with something more suitable I reckon.

Do note, you only need to cover the dash to protect the airbag cover and the centre stitching etc. this makes it a little easier to manage a work-around if you can't find yourself a suitable sun-screen at a good price

I suspect we'll be biased on this thread but I feel the same way.. With Gig Esprits it's the first and last that seem to me most sought after, I reckon it'll be the same with Evora S1s.

 I stand corrected - the stills are an S but his dialogue misled me regarding the car he drives (which is the same car - an S) and there aren’t many clear interior or exterior shots…

It's essentially a sports racer minus the black paint.  I've got the purchase receipt amongst the paperwork and the original owner went their own way and ticked all the options (other than IPS and back seats).

Were SR fully loaded Evora but at around £10K less list price, with black pack inc roof? 

Circa 62k new, a same-optioned standard Evora S would have been 72k?

My Evora's receipt of sale shows something like £70.5k.  Perhaps would have been £72k with back seats and/or auto.

I'm not sure how much the SR was set at.  There's a brochure here, quite interesting but doesn't quote any prices.

Here's the dealer sheet for mine when it was in the showroom at Lipscomb's new and unregistered, photos provided by a PO - I guess the Union Jack badges were dealer-applied at PDI?......
