Saw an Evora IPS test mule
Discussion
Hardly a major spot as its already announced, but worth a post at least I guess?
Was racing in a 24hr kart race at Milton Keynes this weekend and one of the other teams racing was 'Lotus Racing', presumably a group of people from the local Lotus dealership as they seem to have some advertising at the circuit.
They'd brought along an Evora with an AU registration plate - typical a of car registered at the factory.
A quick look in through the window showed this was no standard Evora - it's the new Evora IPS with the automatic gearbox and paddle shift, due out in a couple of months.
This particular car was clearly a pre-production mule as the gear selector buttons in the centre console weren't the final, neat, inset items shown in the press releases, but standard push buttons with what they did printed on a white label above.
Posted them up on a couple forums and looks like the shots may have been seen by someone from Lotus, as when I went back the next day to get some better shots with a proper camera I was greeted by this...
Still, managed to grab a (bad) shot of the paddles behind the steering wheel.
