Re: Wiper motor...again!
I wanted to fit a new spacer, part number B089M0418F. This goes on the spindle shaft and acts as a spacer between the wheelbox and the body. Nobody appears to stock them, so I made one out of neoprene sheet from a boat chandlers. It came in a small roll, 2mm thick, so I cut 35mm square pieces, stac...

Re: 123

Called 'Tune' Anyone got experience of anything other than the Bluetooth variant? Tony Only have experience of the Bluetooth one. But, I believe the cable is just a shield...

BVF 266Y is also a lotus, but unfortunately the model is not recorded, nor an exact registered date. BVF 264Y is an Elite. A few good entrie...

Re: The last of the pre-production Excels for sale on facebook
Tony - do you have this one on the register? Nope - new entry at number 3 👍 How do you know it's a pre production - just the reg date? Any idea of VIN etc? Tony VIN I messaged the seller and he gave it to me - 1148 When I saw reg BVF 267 Y is very close to the prototype BVF 261Y it made me curious.

Re: boot lid catch has failed
Try pushing down on the boot lid while trying to turn the lock - takes a little load off the release mechanism.

Re: Club polo shirts, fleeces etc.
Looks good.
Would it make any difference to size if the “ www” was dropped as not really needed these days and the lotusexcel.net was in lower case?

Re: Elite 50th Anniversary - Lancaster Insurance support
It would be nice to have some of those flag type banners to help identify our stands at the NEC and other shows where there is a group attending.
They may want their name on there as well, just depends how large they would want their logo.
