Is the "Snack" plate recent? I must have missed the news.

Also, what's with Evora SR's apparently being worth £45k these days?
Original plate sir.

And I don’t know if they are actually going for close to £that, but if they are - I approve.

I don’t really like the look of the Evora in general, but i’ve always liked yours Mik - the gloss black detailing really helps the shape, gives it coke bottle hips. I’m assuming yours is a sport racer then. i like Evora sport racers.

Yeah mine is a Sports Racer (from memory there were 11 made in this spec (Stormtrooper white/black with manuel box and the supercharger)). From some angles I still think it looks amazing, and from others I still think it looks a bit clumsy. The Emira does the visuals thing way better.

Surprisingly, that might have been quite effective. Car Scanner app. This popped up (as well as a few other errors that mostly made sense) and it reappears after I cleared it.

This. I've always said that white cars need some good black detailing on them to look good.

Although it's ruined now you've washed it :(

It’s the black sill that make’s Mik’s car really work imo. It pinches the waist in.

Renault used the same technique on the Mk4 Clio to great effect :lol:

Yeah - they look much more “slabby” without it.

Yeah - would possibly look great.

Black gloss wheels were part of the Sports Racer spec. I did move away from that when I got my wheels refurbed a few years back, but could go further…
