Go for it!

I took the plunge quickly and I know the torture that I would have felt if I waited any longer!

I wouldn't wish that torture on any fellow or future Lotus owner so don't make me feel bad lol!

Hands down the best car I've ever driven. Tracked a Noble M12, Murcielago and Zonda F last weekend and while they were faster and rather magnificent, the little Lotus has permanently glued the corners of my mouth to my ears!

Exige Turbo · 11-02-2008, 05:53 PM

Haha, you're making me even more impatient now!

I can't wait to drive mine for the first time!

tomhasle · 11-02-2008, 05:55 PM

I wish I could reset and just go for that first drive again!

I'm jealous of you, you're going to have a wonderful time!

Exige Turbo · 11-02-2008, 06:08 PM

I just hope all goes as planned...

Congratulations! A very underestimated, but very nice car; much better than most people think. The pictures are taken at Spa-Francorchamps, right?

Yes, you're right, it was in Spa, this we, for the belgian Lotus Day.

This Europa version (SE) is really good car!

2L Turbo engine (GM), 225 HP, 300Nm of Torque, 990kg, Exige "pref pack" brakes (AP Racing 4P, 308mm dics, aeroequip, ferodo 2500, bigger turbo, a new ECU, and really great for daily car...

I had a Elise Komotec (SC > 275HP), great car, but as second one...

THis Europa is all what I want from a Lotus !

There was a review in the latest issue of German car magazine 'auto, motor und sport' (still available). Did you read that? The only bad point was the SE's fuel economy. How is your experience so far?

Nice Europa. Congrats!
