Buying the 2012 Lotus Evora

Before you sign for the Evora
A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
What the specs mean
The powertrain to know here is the 3.5L 6-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
The combined figure, 10.4 L/100 km, means roughly 31 litres for 300 km. That works out to about $18.20 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,550 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Size and space
As a sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second. At 57 litres, the trunk fits about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.
A good match for
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a summer weekend or a special occasion more than a move.
Drive it on your own roads
If the Evora is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
The cost of driving it
The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $18.20 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $182 at our price setting.
Which one to look for
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
