    Curiously it has similar performance figures to the Lotus Carlton, which in its day was THE police car that the crims could not get away from.

    The Evora would make the Scooby Evo and Porsche brigade slow down to have a look LOL

    The clue is in the word "donated" ie, it's not coming out of the tax payers pocket.
