Looks nice Andrew.
Have you still got a nice collection of stable mates for it ?

Thanks! Yes there are a few friends in the garage to make the new Lotus feel welcome smile

Great addition, Andrew. She looks lovely - very menacing. The full-fat 430, too driving

Hopefully see it in metal/carbon(/plastic wink ) before too long biggrin

Thanks Darren.
I think she will need a different back box to pass noise test at Snett (and most other circuits) but that is also part of the plan. Would be great to see you there, or also at a PHEA meet.

Nice! Bought some (not quite as expensive) local produce myself in July to join my Lancashire toy.

What a fantastic car, proper drivers car.
Noise at race tracks is a problem, my lad purchased a couple of bolt on external baffles for his cerbi, simply slot on and tighten clamp onto the exhaust tips. Maybe available for Lotus?

Very nice! I love those cars, considered one myself a few times.

I have Snetterton booked for 15th September - would be great to see it on track.
