Emira purchase

[Lee281275]

Good afternoon my first post and hopefully not my last and not sure if i am in the correct section.
I am the market to purchuse an Emira As soon as i am able, but I have a Lotus Evora 410 Sport to sell first to fund it. My car is currently listed on Pistonheads and I am also in discussions with several traders ref a PX but traders I'm finding want to do it SOR or don't want to outlay.
It was suggested to me to ask on here to see if anyone fancies a trade against my 410 Sport been 1 of 25 ever produced it is a rather special car but I want to scratch that Emira itch.
My ideal spec Emira is a bright colour or Verdant green, Sports chassis, alcantara interior and silver wheels however no car is off the table.
Also any traders reading this again get in touch I am a long time Lotus owner

It might be worth you putting your Evora up for sale in AutoTrader too - a much wider audience. Pistonheads is a great site for selling to enthusiasts.

Also be aware that the number of second-hand Emiras is dropping, only about 40 odd now up on Autotrader if you discount ads for new cars, there were far more at the start of the year. Consequently UK prices are increasing - min is now 58K where as there were some for 55K - so you probable don't want to hang around.

Apologies if I'm just telling you what you already know, I bought mine recently so just letting you know what I found then.

Hoping someone here is looking to sell

I had a 2011 Evora NA. Originally, I was looking for a Nimbus gray.
I asked local exotic car dealers to keep a look out for an Emira. A local exotic dealer located a verdant green with 1500 miles. I was willing to compromise on my first choice to get a better price. They were asking $98k USD but offered me $50K for my Evora. At the time (Dec 2024) no one was offering me that much for my Evora.
No fuss with a buyer coming back on the deal when trading in to a dealer

It might be good to look at upscale used exotic dealers and see what you get on trade.
