The Evora has landed

Post by jaRED » Sun May 24, 2015 2:09 pm

So after looking at a variety of different ages and engines we've finally found the one :trampoline: :trampoline:

It's older than we were planning,but has been well looked after and is such a pretty colour.

Driving home from Bristol yesterday I didn't need a radio, I just listened to the engine and even after 4 hours I wasn't bored.

It's a normally aspirated one, quite a rare colour and with the extended leather in Oyster is nice inside too

Hoping to get it out on a hoon soon :driving:

Absolutely stunning - wouldn't do my ocd good to own such a car - I'd be paranoid about parking it and leaving it !

Enjoy !

Gorgeous car ,great choice and enjoy
Cf Zed it will feel like a Boss suit vs a Crombie ,ie much more of a precision tool with amazing driver input from the steering and suspension .Ie like a Zed that's been on Atkins and a year in the Gym to tone up .And the Toyota is bomb proof with superb throttle response . Hope the AC works well in this weather .
