Now that is an achingly beautiful car.

Less so from the back but nevertheless!

Absolutely gorgeous!

Where’d you happen upon her? A club meet of some sort or was she just out and about?

Turner invited me and the lad to a gathering of a historic Lotus club he belongs to on Sunday.

Oakley Hall in Hampshire was cracking in the sunshine and when this turned up it made my day. Form AND function, plus a great colour .

Ian,
Monetery issues apart would you swap the exige for it ??? i think not

6

Certainly not!

It would be like adding a grandma to the stable.

That said, I maybe going to a classic Elite trackday soon!

But would I swap mine for yours?! I was gutted to miss Bruntie yesterday, I was particularly looking forward to seeing your car in action. I saw it at Donny but didn’t really have a chance to talk to you. Did you have a good day yesterday?

Ian
Probably not what you want to hear but had a superb day
I lost count how many people i took round the circuit, at one point people were waiting for 1hr to get in the car.

I was touching 150mph on the straight before running out of track

8

Gutted that I could not make it The car was just sitting on the drive under its cover.

Ian called me at luchtime and when we should have been hooning Ian was sitting at home alone and I was pushing a trolley around Sainsbury’s.

Ho hum, there is always next year…

Probably not what you want to hear but had a superb day

Well yes and no.

Glad you had a good day!

Sad I missed it.

You at Bedford on Monday?

Ian

I dont know cant make my mind up between Bedford or Anglesey

AFAIK Bedford is fully booked.

I’ve booked for Anglesey today, Russ is also there being an Instructor in Tracksport’s hire Elise.

Fingers crossed that the weather is kind

12

I dont know cant make my mind up between Bedford or Anglesey

I understand there’s a couple of Exigers booked for Bedford without either a working car or the ability to control it.

Ian

13

or the ability to control it

I think that sums up both the cause and effect of my woes

Seriously though, Ian is right. Waiting till I have seen the specialist on Weds but watch this space there may be a space…that way we can all get black-flagged for noise at Bedford

14

Hmm forgot about the noise
Anyone know the limit at Bedford ???

15

Unless YOU stay under 3000rpm, you’ll be blackflagged for sure

Get yerself to Anglesey

16

101 dB Evosal, your car sounds awesome, but you would definitely get blackflagged at Bedford. Probably at idle!
