Interesting read as always from Clarkson; and looks like it has hit the nail on the head in terms of remit if this is to be believed:
[color:#3333FF]“The Evora, then, is not a car you buy because it�s a Lotus and you have always fancied one. It�s a car you buy because you want a comfortable, practical, mid-engined supercar and no one else makes such a thing. Not Ferrari. Not Lamborghini. Not anyone.”[/color]
Is it just me, but I can’t read anything by Clarkson without hearing his voice in my head whilst reading? 
Yep lol Only got 3 stars…My new(ish) mota I’m picking up tomorrow got 5…it’s an R32
