Hi,
Trying to find my next automotive partner .

I am looking for something interesting to do 25k over 12 months. Needs to be comfortable during the week whilst I travel on business then fun at the weekend when drive through Wales home

Always keep looking at Evora, but not yet taken the plunge. I have 40k to spend .

So, is it comfortable enough and not too loud at a 70 cruise - can I use the phone at this speed ?

Will it be happy doing the miles , through wind, rain and sunshine

I know it will be great on the welsh roads, so no questions on that front .

Thinking a non- supercharged to keep running costs in check , what mpg motorway cruising can I expect ?

Thanks for any info provided

So, any updates OP?
Thanks for the all the comments on the Evora, it gave me a difficult decision to make. The Evora ran a very close second, but in the end I went for a 996 C4S.

What clinched it was the 4 wheell drive ( lots of B roads in Wales on my route), and a pristine example turning up at a good price. Evora's were pretty thin on the ground at my price level, and service centres were quite wide spread.

I haven't given up on Lotus yet, and at some point in the future I will be back when a sport racer comes within my ( slighly bigger by then ) budget.

Enjoy your cars
