Re: Unobtainium
Given the plethora of brands/models that use the Citroen CX mirror it does surprise me that somebody hasn't come up with a solution/replacement for those. Especially given some of its more expensive applications. Even if the solution was to fit a similar looking mirror. I know some with TVR owners h...

Re: Lotus 4x4 electra
Size comparison, note the Elan hiding behind it. Bash https://onedrive.live.com/embed?resid=6A4587DD2206DDBA%211182&authkey=%21AD9cJKuZSJgkuPk&width=1024 Nice shot. I was disappointed when I read Paul's email about the Eletre attending the meet. I'd not seen one yet and really fancied a closer look...

Re: Grand Tourers Register
Hi.
Not sure if you have mine already, has been for sale a couple of times in the last 3 years so perhaps you've added it previously.
H123SPW, in Calypso Red.

Re: Excel Just sold
This had been up on Ebay for £15995 since early 2023. Judging by the receipts it appears they've been working on it since 2021.
A shame it didn't make more given the amount of recent work, but with that mileage and some less sought after bits it's not a surprise.

Lotus Elite (Type 75) or Eclat? in Red, Bawtry; Doncaster.
Very briefly caught a red Elite in Bawtry on 9/11/2023. Looked smart and was great to see on a dreary morning. There wasn't much chance of me catching the full registration but something may have at least been P*****R. Apologies if you're a member on here and I've not come across you yet. Still find...

Re: New monthly lotus meeting Nottinghamshire
Thanks for the general chat Bash and letting my wife have a seat. I don't think my step-daughter could be any less interested unfortunately! That Esprit was incredible. I'd seen one of Paul's previous Esprits around 15 years ago, which was also very nice (I have a photo somewhere). I didn't realise ...

Re: New monthly lotus meeting Nottinghamshire
Is this still happening tomorrow? Intending to come down with the family for them to check out an Excel or two and give me the nod of approval!

Re: My old SE back on the market
Thanks for that Trevor. I did have a more detailed look at your posting history this afternoon.. It certainly sounds like a decent example; with the current keeper continuing with its progression as you say. Were it more local I'd be going tomorrow; unfortunately my weekends are quite precious as I ...

Re: My old SE back on the market
Good point on headroom with a helmet, maybe a special track day seat would be required with no base! I happily go to Blyton just to watch though and not really sure I'd want to track an Excel. I've sent a couple of messages to the seller of this on Ebay, seems like a decent chap and has been forthco...

Re: My old SE back on the market
Thanks Bash. I did take a look. Appears to be a decent example although the A/C problem is a little off-putting; not a big deal really but it would be nice to know what the issue is even if not fixed. As you can perhaps tell I am getting a bit impatient waiting for the 'perfect' car to come along! E...

Re: My old SE back on the market
Hi Trevor.
Do you have a thread on here documenting your ownership and work carried out, or similar? When did you sell?
Cheers.

Re: In silver
Hi Tony. Many thanks for your detailed reply. I may well try to see it next weekend although we'll see how this week goes. I have been keeping a distant eye on Excels for the last couple of months and generally have a good grasp on the 'classic' market as a whole; it's only in the last week or two t...
Re: In silver
Hi Bash, thanks for letting me try your Excel out for size today at The Reindeer. I can't help but be tempted by this Lincoln Excel. From those available today, it ticks most of the boxes (no sunroof, not blue leather, cambelt, clutch and other bits..) and is of course conveniently local. I do like ...
