Model Lotus is off the scale

The Lotus Evora has already been cut down to size – with this 1:64-scale model.

Bosses at the Norfolk firm worked with toy giant Matchbox for nine months to make the 2+2 as accurate as possible. The miniature Evora even used the same computer modelling data. And while the full-size car isn’t on sale until 2009, the Matchbox Lotus will be in shops in autumn.
