As some people have found the clutch on the Evora can wear quite quickly and its a very labor intensive and expensive job to replace as the whole rear clam needs to be removed and the engine removed from the car.
This special offer is completely comprehensive and includes a new clutch friction and pressure plate and release bearing and associated parts. Alongside our Lotus specialist we are also a franchised Toyota after sales outlet so all work is performed by Toyota factory trained technicians. We need the car for about a week to complete the job (its over 30 hours).
Our usual main dealer service applies, collection and delivery (within a reasonable radius of Henley), courtesy cars, year warranty on parts and labor.
Murray Motors has sold a load of 'em Roberto Paint job is holding up fine too fella, as it should for what it cost No pealy stripes for me,just the proper (aka expensive) ones
Chris and his team are good guys. They get my vote anytime.
43,000 miles and mine is still ok.
If a new one is needed at low milage then the car has been severely abused or someone who can’t drive a manual as an owner, imo.
For reference, my engine and box (including clam off etc) where out of the car in UNDER FOUR HOURS while I watched at Hethel and photographed the whole process. This was for some warranty gearbox work. So once specialists and dealers get practice then offers like Randys might become more common. It’s not complicated just alot of bloody tapes, pipes, zipties (really) etc that add up.
When I bought mine I was a bit suspicious about the clutch and it was changed as part of the deal.(especially as I had heard that it is a £2,500 job.) On that basis Randy’s offer looks comparatively expensive. There does seem to be a fair bit of scaremongering on this particular Evora part but there are very few horror stories that I have actually uncovered. My clutch (and master cylinder/hydraulics) is new and sweet and a bit of rev matching wil keep it that way, I’m sure.
Learning to DDC is only stage one of learning to Heel and Toe. Rev matching was an essential skill before synchromesh. All of the old gits can do it and I’ve never driven a Lotus that I couldn’t heel and toe (apart from the IPS Evora, of course) or left foot brake. I once drove my 1600E 68 miles without a clutch (major fluid leak) just by rev matching. When I got home I connected the hydraulics, topped up the reservoir, bled the system and all was well.
Be careful chaps!
