Mate - this is the one. I reckon a few of us hard arses could go in as a gang and get another $10k off the price - at least.

yeah, ive been keeping an eye on that, looks great
im aware of the service you provide in negotiating too

bit early for me to move, have to consider garaging requirements, as in, I only have 1 and would need 2. My father will oblige, but not sure if I can trust him!

However, as unpopular as this may be, I think id prefer the V8, just because it would be siginificantly different to my europa, I know lotus purists scoff at the idea of a V8 lotus

WTF are you talking about man!??!?!

I believe he'll take 70K for it for a quick deal. It's been on sale for a looong time now.

That is easily the most favourable review of a Lotus Europa I have ever seen
also the most comprehensive review I have ever seen of one

Mine is pretty much the same as the reivew car except the brakes, I would like to update mine, theres a kit available. My wheels are also different but I like mine better, easier to clean.

I came in here just to post that review. Nice to see the Europa get some more positive press.

Thanks for taking the time to provide all that information, i really like this car and i couldnt find too much information on it. I guess when the time comes ill have to drive one back to back to an Elise and then decide 


Had you driven an Elise prior to purchasing this? I assume not? How about since?

Thanks
