8 years ago I took this (with a DSLR)

Today :D

and a couple more from the best angles (like the vx, Evora has some great angles and some awkward ones)

I love driving it, drove it back to back with the vx today and love that too, more different that you can imagine. I'll write a bit more about it later.

New photos clearly not taken with a DSLR.

 

Would be curious to see how the usage of the two cars balance out.

Something that I'm going to find interesting too, use to run more than one motorbike & normally ended up favouring one far more than the other.

Stunning in white Also picked up an evora last week and still have the VX. I can see how they both fit a purpose but I don't have time to use both regularly and don't need a car to commute.

I posted in the 911 thread which I saw first. Currently, Evora vx ratio is 10 to 1 on usage mileage is more like 100 to 1. But you'd expect that to change with better weather.
