How was the drive down there in that?
Mega. Was a bit concerned that in the highest parts of central Spain in mid-winter it might be a bit of a handful given it was -4 and icy but kept on more boring motorways in those parts for that reason and it was fine.

Not sure I would have wanted to turn around and drive straight back if it was, say, a week or two trip. I had the car down there for 4 months over winter when it would have gone unused in the UK and it was great and meant another great 3 day trip bringing her back to the UK. Combined it with getting back to my Dad's for his 90th birthday in Southampton so only had 12 miles to cover once I had disembarked the Santander>Portsmouth ferry.

Now plan to repeat the trip each winter TBH.

Ahh that sounds ideal, would love a good roadtrip in a Lotus one day.

Haha, I'd never had a 'personal' plate before but because there were so few Evoras the plate was cheap as chips.

I used to own an S2 Europa TTC566H in the 80s, couldn't track it down so bought this 1973 Special to tinker with.

Love those ZO6’s.

I’m still after a C6 in my life in manual. Would have been after a ZO6 but I want to have a targa roof.
