I suppose I ought to update the thread!
One year and about 3k miles later, I am still smitten with this thing. It had a major service, including cambelt, and I had the head gasket done as the coolant was doing peculiar things. It's raw, lively, and everything I hoped for when I bought it.
But... I am doing far fewer miles for work now, and am daydreaming about swapping my boring daily driver BMW, and my Elise, and combining their roles with an Evora. Maybe.
