Yellow Evora S

[p_k_n]

Just wondering if anyone knows any history of this yellow Evora:

Does it look reasonably priced? Seems to have the premium pack with tech pack parts retrofitted e.g. reverse camera.

Price looks reasonable to me for a pre my 12 car. It has the better version of the Alpine unit (the earlier one is properly useless if you want to use the phone)

Agreed. I fitted the later unit to my 2010 car and it was a vast improvement, although was a ball ache configuring the rear camera to work using the old wiring and the new unit.

Clutch would be my concern at that mileage. 30 - 40k miles seems to be the timing on the clutch - if its had it replaced happy days. If not, factor in a £3k bill.

Not a big fan of yellow cars usually and much prefer orange but for reasons unknown I think the Evora is far better suited to yellow than it is orange. The SR wrap/paint is a must too.

Go get it bought!

Thanks for the replies guys, I think the yellow and black contrast works really well. My preference has always been a yellow or chrome orange Evora S with the SR look.

The sale has been agreed! Tony at HHC is a lovely guy to deal with. Will be collecting it in a few weeks from him.

+1 congrats. Lovely colour.

That is good value.

Oh, and when you drive it and decide that that acorn gear knob is ergonomically repulsive you can fit one of these

Nice one! Is it me or is the Evora starting to get a bit of cult following these days?

Another point of agreement. I bought mine direct from lotus and sure I paid quite a bit more but much improver over the awful leather egg shape thing.

[blueg33]

I liked the leather egg until the leather wore through. It was very comfortable to use. I did replace it with the 400 ali knob.

Thanks guys, looking forward to collection day. The gear knob has been added to the to-buy list :-)
