P4N Lotus Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Evora is brilliant car, it's way understated and overlooked by many, if you ask any Elise/exige drivers who have changed to an Evora they will more than likely agree its fantastic. Only thing I miss is not having the soft top and maybe the lightness, but what you lose in weight it makes up in torque and acelleration ...as for soft top when our summers are like this last two weeks of rain, then I'm kinda glad it's got the creature comforts. mine is a daily drive, I average 27mpg standard driving, and 20mpg when having fun, long distance motorway approx 36mpg, in the winter I am comfy and warm, In the summer im cool with the air con, Only things I've been disappointed with was the standard exhaust being so quiet, Rear tyre wear lil bit annoying on the pzeros, and the sat nav don't always pick up the satalites which is also a bug bare. but other than that, it's sporty yet comfy, sport mode is just a fantastic toy to have. Downside is the Elise used to get all positive comments, the evora I've had a few jealous people shout abuse at me for no reason when just driving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanP Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I have a daily drive and an elise. The evora price means that we would have to sell both to get the evora. It's just the loss of the soft top that I would really miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
