Lotus enthusiasts have organised a 'Stelvio not Bust' tour of the infamous Alpine pass and surrounding area in support of the 10th birthday of the iconic Lotus Elise, which was tested on and around the Stelvio Pass -- see image taken from the Stelvio Webcam this morning.

According to organiser Ben Rye, "Along the way we drive some of the best roads in France, Italy, Austria and Switzerland and stay in some great locations from the mountain village of Braunwald to St Moritz."

It's a week-long tour from 10-16 September, costing from £338 with one car and two people.

"Lotus enthusiasts have organised a 'Stelvio not Bust' tour of the infamous Alpine pass and surrounding".

Continuing the tradition started by Tony Churly in 1999...

As usual there will be several groups going. You can get in touch through the "Stelvio or Bust" Yahoo! Group at http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/s or via www.stelvio.org.uk/.

However you get there hope to see you on the pass.

Need to meet up for a beer soon !
