James Bond inspires a unique Evora Sport 410

Lotus Exclusive, the brand’s personalisation department, has created a one-off Evora Sport 410. A tribute to the Esprit S1 submersible that was driven by James Bond in ‘The Spy Who Loved Me’, it features numerous cosmetic flourishes.

For the exterior, they include a part-painted engine cover, a colour-coded front bumper and black waistline stripes.

Inside, tartan panels on the seats and door cards provide a suitably retro feel. Red contrast stitching across the Alcantara-covered dashboard and centre console further adds to the look.

Everything mechanical has been left standard. Upgrades weren’t really required though, because power is provided by a supercharged 3.5 litre V6 engine that produces 410 bhp (306 kW / 416 PS) with 410 Nm (302 lb/ft) of peak torque.

Alfa MiTo TwinAir arrives

Performance might not be scintillating - the 0-62 mph (100 km/h) sprint takes 12.5 seconds and maximum speed is 108 mph (173 km/h) - but the TwinAir’s trump card is efficiency. Carbon dioxide emissions are only 98 g/km, a level that brings numerous benefits for UK drivers including zero road tax, a full discount on the London Congestion Charge and qualification for the lowest company car benefit-in-kind rate. Fuel economy is also decent and, according to the official figures, a TwinAir-powered MiTo will manage 67.3 mpg (4.2 l/100km) on the combined cycle. Impressive maybe, but still some way off the 78.5 mpg (3.6 l/100km) of the existing 1.3 JTDM-2 diesel MiTo. However, any
