Go on Kenny, would love to see you in one.

Was about to say that we could lap together, but not so sure in that beast.

ps if the top came off, it is probably the first model that would entice me away from N3 if we rolled the clock back a few years.

Not been on here much, but bought Graeme's original White Evora demo car to follow on from a Europa.

Evora sold now, but have a V6 on order from MMC to arrive Feb/March. Can't think I'll be regretting it...

Good choice :thumbsup

How did you rate the Evora after the Europa?
Still got my Europa (still not got a Miltek on it :roll: ) and much as I want an Evora I am reluctant to part with the Europa, enjoying it too much to trade it just yet.

I thought it looked a little like this one:

The M10 (posted by me) predated the M12 therefore stands more chance of being the "first Noble" as quoted by Peter :?

Yikes! I meant the one that Jen mentioned, I'm clearly not that clued up on Nobles!

Diffent things for me. The Europa was a weekend car, but I got fed up driving a dull car during the week, so bought an Evora to do both jobs.

Rear seats made that possible, and It's a great car for feeling involved even when going slowly, which is what I wanted. If I'd bought an S with a close ratio box, I'd probably still have it, but the gearing and power weren't perfect on launch cars and after a while I got fed up driving in 3rd on most good roads (inc all of Knockhill!) and having to change down on M-ways, so I bailed out just before S came on market, and went for a full size family car again, with the idea of picking up something more fun later.

I only traded in the Europa for Evora because I couldn't justify using both, but to be honest I wish I'd kept it - i'd still have it now, and was on the point of offering on an SE when v6 was announced.

Not the prettiest indeed, but was reputed to be a very nice drive, and was an early sign as to Lee Nobles' capabilities :thumbsup

Watching with interest on his next move seeing as he's parted company with the car maker which still carries his name... 8)

"...and having the two cars side by side put in to perspective just how much wider the new Exige is compared to it’s predecessor."

Not so good on the narrow back roads though.
