New Europa S

Nice one Dave - you should have done a dvd for 'em - so that they could have set up one of them sit down an' watch rooms

Agree: Lotus + Turbo , Lotus + Soopercharger

The best Europa in the showroom is there now (have left a script with Steve / Andy for the lecture. But I think it's in the telling)
Must admit the new Europa is definitly a 'refined' elise/vx and not a different animal, but the motor is not a patch on the toyota lump, turbo'ed or not, and although it is supposed to have low down grunt, its a bit bland until the turbo cuts in.

Saw it in the flesh today at Hexham on the way to the North Tyne.

Must say I liked the look of it......sorry

I bought autocar yesterday coming back from london and it's been totally slated by them.

The steering’s good, performance is decent but they've just re-iterated what all the loti forums have been saying about the pointlessness of lotus producing a ~£30k 2 seater coupe.

Apparently the interior is not a patch on owt german and the whole thing is a bit of a nothingness.
