prospective esprit turbo owners
Discussion
Hello guys, I am nearly finished the restoration of my TVR so will be looking for a new toy in the summer.
Ive still got my heart set on an early 80's esprit turbo.
Ive found this forum, but not joined yet:

Is this the best place to go?
Are there any specific things to look out for on this model - apart from the usual stuff when looking at a car this age?
Thanks
Chris

I'd recommend www.lotusespritworld.com as a good starting point.
Might be worth tracking down the Wheeler Dealers episode where they did an Esprit S3. It wasn't a turbo car but nonetheless fundamentally the same thing.
