Far costlier and a huge amount rarer, yet no more power - we've seen a sports car like the A110 R before.... It costs as much as many more powerful sports cars, has the kind of carbon-led, obsessive weight saving more commonly associated with million-pound exotica and is noticeably less usable than the surprisingly civilised standard version. It really shouldn’t make any sense whatsoever - many will tell you already that it doesn’t - yet here’s the rub: it’s absolutely wonderful.
While it’s sad that the GTE didn’t leave Hethel as the car it was intended to be, there’s no such thing as a bad Evora - and certainly not one built by Lotus Motorsport. . It has covered just 6,000 miles since 2015 and is an utterly stunning to behold. The Alpine of course attracts attention with its carbon deck, those snazzy wheels and the colour, but even it pales next to the Lotus.
It says a lot about the immersive qualities of both that you aren’t immediately yearning for a manual in either case . Instead, you tend to dwell on how two cars that look fit only for race tracks can deliver such a joyous road experience, fluid and adroit when so many now seem determined to pummel the tarmac into submission.
That being said, it’s hardly a chore to get back to the Lotus. Save for the infotainment time hasn't been particularly unkind to the Evora. It still feels like an event. That perfect view out of the front, those great haunches behind. If ever there was an environment custom-made for the business of spirited driving, it's marked out by a scramble over those giant sills.
