Celica Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 What’s been the lowest non category supercharged sold people know of? ive seen a 100k LE sell for £19-20k just seen another LE with 20-30k sold here I think for around £25k also maybe seen on Facebook a 2011 NA 45k mileage at about £25k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LotusLeftLotusRight Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 (edited) There may have been a couple of pre MY12 “non category” supercharged cars selling for £30k - £35k, but for MY12 on, I think that grey 2013 Sports Racer S IPS is the cheapest I have seen.

Would you say it’s a well priced car and the seller is willing to have a health check complete at a well known Lotus dealer included for peace of mind as it’s impossible to get to see it at the moment.

Gold FFM andyj007 Posted January 11 Gold FFM Report Share Posted January 11 something up with that site thats way too cheap.. dealers would be buying at that price surely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wake Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 It was bought by a dealer I believe. I was tempted to bid, but I’m not a fan of the red interior Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
62dave Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 There’s a 6% buyers fee to be fair so that would take it over 40k 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Messer Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 Decent buy for someone that i have noticed though that the evora 400 and 410 market is a pretty quiet one, prices high and don’t seem to sell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelly Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 Wow that's a massive bargain, but surely a buyers market at the moment. I can only guess the seller was desperate to sell. Would be interesting to see if a 400 has dropped below £50k before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rafphillips Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 I nearly bid on the collecting cars grey one but...Last service in July 2018, body work had lots of a scratches in pics (needed a good 3 stage polish), needed 4 new tyres (week 15 of 2015) so coming up 5 years old. Weirdly it sold today and yet already up on eBay for £49.9k but sat in their show room in pics. So not convinced it sold (allot of collecting cars don’t really sell it seems and just end up back on the same traders site). https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2016-66-Reg-Lotus-Evora-3-5-406ps-400-GEN-17600-MILES-STUNNING-COND-SPEC-/353314453908?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292 I don’t think it was a huge bargain with 6% fee and £40,250 plus £1k or the above. So probably about £3-4k less that a dealer will end up selling for. Some of the current £44 - £48k cars been for sale for well over year now they just don’t seem to shift.

Gold FFM C8RKH Posted January 12 Gold FFM Report Share Posted January 12 Usually a luxury purchase of a toy during the worst pandemic with Brexit for good measure It's a tough market and I've seen the same McLarens and others for sale over the last 12 months too. Remember, Lotus sold new around 150 Evora's a year so a very niche market indeed when coupled with most people needing finance for a £30k plus car, below that I'm sure many will be cash buyers. So in summary, hardly surprising but those in great condition, under £30k seem to sell in a couple of days. Cash buyers! Quote Alcohol. Sex. Tobacco. Drugs. Chocolate. Meh! NOTHING in this world is as addictive as an Evora +0. It's not for babies! The first guy to ride a bull for fun, was a true hero. The second man to follow him was truly nuts!

S4S 4 Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 Looks like it's up for sale on eBay? Not sure if the Evora sold it's on eBay with the seller who listed it on CC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LotusLeftLotusRight Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 Probably never sold then. That’s the problem with these on-line auctions. We all get excited about the final recorded bid, but in reality that often means nothing. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daveb99 Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 More likely that the seller hasn’t cancelled the eBay listing yet. If I was the buyer, who bought it for £40k on the auction site, with no reserve, I’d be pushing to get the deal completed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
