Sat in the back of an Evora today

[Caruso]

Well I say sat, but I'm not sure if having my knees splayed either side of the driver's seat headrest and my head/neck canted at a 90 deg angle quite counts as sitting. And this was with the driver's seat far enough forward that I could no longer operate the pedals! So very much for young children then, as the headroom is extremely limited.

But nevertheless the front was fantastic and I'm a big fan of the looks and layout.

I find it virtually imossible to sit in the back of mine, I'm 5'10", but my 8 year old son fits just fine. I reckon it will be fine til he's about 12.
Mine is the 3rd one to be delivered to private customers, got it today.

Nice one.

Excellent - some impressions would be welcome!

Impressions- do you mean
- some of the posters on these forums have no idea what they are talking about and would have no concept of a drivers car if it bit them on the arse.

How about my Frankie Howard, it got rave reviews in the "Tiddly Bottom cronicle"

or

What has been making me grin all weekend like a raving lunatic on LSD.

Honestly its fabulous - I know people will knock it, its a lotus there are always going to be issues. But it looks fantastic, mines in starlight black, strange thing is I have seen it in white and don't like it, so I think colour choice is important.
Handling is out of this world, just keep driving faster and faster into corners.
So what if it doesn't do 190, FFS, I'm a middle age tt having a mid life crisis, at my age the old ticker would explode past 170 (fact).
I need to run it in for 1000 miles can't wait.
I went and got a newspaper this morning and ended up doing 60 miles.

Thanks, but I was hoping for the Frankie Howard.
