BertBert did you get round to buying an Evora. Yea it will be interesting to see if there is any interest in this one.
Not got there yet, but cleared the decks and am still in the market. Not putting a lot of effort in at the moment with tier4 and all that.And actually I'm struggling a bit with what to go for being an indecisive kind of chap. From nat asp, S, 400, 410. At least I have ruled out the 430!

I pulled out of the purchase of an S in March due to lockdown. Then started looking at the 400 and thinking I'd stretch to one of those next Spring when hopefully it would get some use. Then read about the GT410 Sport, which appeals even more.And actually I'm struggling a bit with what to go for being an indecisive kind of chap. From nat asp, S, 400, 410.

I'm going to watch the market over the winter. There can't be many takers for a year old 410 at the same price as a brand new 718 GTS so a price adjustment may be on the horizon.
Perhaps it's not just me! Someone I know has got an early Evora that he loves (in fact I recommended it to him all those years ago). But I've never been in it. And they are renowned for their super fluid handling. But who wouldn't go for 350 bhp in the S? Then surely 400 is better. Then the 410 lost all that weight and added carbon bits as well!
By then surely if you were looking to pay mid-60s for a used current gen 410, you'd have to try the Cayman GT4! Perhaps I'm overthinking it and should use buying power to get the best price on a latest 410 and get on with it.

I am going through the same thing now Bert. I started off looking at a 981 GTS and thought they were nice but a bit pricey considering there is a 718 GTS 4.0 now. Looked at the Alpine A110 which I genuinely thought was great but I want something more than a 4cyl. Looked at a 400 and test drove two different ones, thought it was a fantastic car but none on the market I’m super interested in right now (they all seem to have that red interior which I can’t be doing with) I looked at the 410 briefly but the absence of an arm rest puts me off, then I figured if I was gonna spend that much I may as well look at the 718 GTS or a 981 GT4. I’m still not quite sure what to do (I still keep looking at the Alpine).
But anyway as for the car on CC, it will be interesting to see what it goes for. There was a pretty nice looking 2016 exige 350 which sold not long ago for £38k which I thought was quite low.

sold for £38,250 to the seller, £40,545 from the buyer inc fees. Looks a pretty good deal to me.
Great valueCurrently debating weather to enjoy modifying my 997 in time for the summer, or keep it stock and look to shop it in for a 400 towards the end of the season.
Not sure if it was on EBay before... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2016-66-Reg-Lotus-Evora...
