Hi Lyndon, met you on the drive to Club Lotus trackday at Castle Combe.

AlsaAutomotive on here perhaps or Phil Myers at Old Tythe Garage, Magor.

Join Seloc also as a few Welsh Lotus owners on there.

Lyndon, you have my all time dream car!! Enjoying my TVRs at the mo but the Giugaro Esprit Turbo is just awesome for me. Hopefully see you during the summer in one of the meets.

[wolflyn]

hi guys thanks for the replys,, will def try to make a breakfast meet,, and the swansea fortnightly meets.

That's a great looking car, would love to see it at a meet. I'll check with my old man who he has used on his Jaguar's. Did you go the Pencoed show? I recall speaking to a Lyndon on the Lotus owners club display. What part of South Wales are you in, may also help with recommendations.

You MUST come to the next South West Wales breakfast meet as Huw said.
On a side note have you seen this months EVO with the Esprit feature?

There is also a piece in Practical Classics on 1ESX. Worth a quick read if you are in Tesco!

1ESX was one of the cars featured in EVO although the new issue is out now so you would have to look at back issues.
P.S. get that bloody 1M to the South West Wales meet on Sunday.

I have an Elise. I'm based in Newport.
