New car day - Evora Sport 410

I'm still going back to page one to look at the photos of this every time someone new posts

Lotus used redesigns of the front and rear bumpers pretty effectively when updating the car over the years.

*this excludes the super-rare wide-arched GTE versions, which also look fabulous, but have nothing like the performance of the later cars.

These pics are from the original CC advert, and they're better than I'd take, so it'll do!
Can see all of them here - Clicky

Obviously can't help but compare it to the old Evora - while there are things I'd miss (the power and noise, obviously) I wouldn't feel I was massively losing out if I financialy needed to go back to my old S1. There's more similarities than differences.

I've bought a new headunit already which will fix issue number 1, but probably my biggest issue is the seats. They're a massive downgrade compared to the S1 Recaros and I'm struggling to get comfy in them. I'll give until my finances have recovered and maybe look for some alternatives.

I think Bibs still has some S1 recaros for sale….

Are the AP calipers standard, an option or fitted by the previous owner Matty?

I think the S1 Evora still look much better irl than in pics.

Alas my bank balance is not healthy enough right now for new seats, so it's down the list....

Standard on the 410 (and 430, I believe?) they seem to work well, although at £1100 just for the disks themselves, hopefully never need replacing in my ownership
