S1 Rear 225 x45 x 16 Yokohama Advan Neova. Anyone got some recently?

Where and at what cost.

I phoned a place in Glasgow that I used for Toyo for other car, said they can't source the Neova's.

I didn't realise that the Neova came in non-LTS spec.

I think Lotus dealers and the like are probably your best bet (e.g. Hangar111, eliseparts, etc.).

I'd challenge anyone (apart from maybe Walshy) to be able to tell the difference between an M compound Yoko and an LTS.

FWIW, I've got SS A038 on the front of the Liz, with LTS on the rear... No massive imbalance (in anything but the driver ;))

Supposed to be a special compound for lightweight plastic cars. Mor elike an excuse to flog the same old tyres with a different sidewall marking at a higher price.....
