The Lotus Grand Tourers

I did 3 days last year but am happy to step down this year to let someone else go.
If you are stuck for volenteers I am happy to do 2 days this year. Any 2 of the 3 days whatever suits you.

Damm! Just bought 5 litres 2 weeks ago from Opie (already had some in stock to make up the 6 litres required) cost £44 with shipping and vat

Still - might stock up at that price.

Here it is at the NEC Classic Car Show 2010 https://onedrive.live.com/embed?resid=c879f1a1772c751b%218419&authkey=%21ACRAK0PWyXwoMvg&width=3008&height=2000 https://onedrive.live.com/embed?resid=c879f1a1772c751b%218422&authkey=%21APd5SYRj2WeByJ0&width=2000&height=3008 https://onedrive.live.com/embed...

Thanks Alan for the reply.
Stu - please pt me down for a pair and thanks for doing this.

I have replaced the lower rear seat belt montings. This one


So where is this other one to be found? I thought I had rusty seat belt mounts covered

I got mine from here for about £25 but can't remember which one https://www.jgsupplies.co.uk/oil-pressu ... s-72-c.asp
Might be worth giving them a call

I came accross an old article in Club Lotus News 1985 Issue 2 written by Graham Arnold

Lynne and I are happy to go with the Manifold again. Not much going on around it but food was good and reasonable price.

I'm going to wait till the end of the month before buying and take out Amazon prime for a month. That way I will have accsess to all the footy over December

You can get special tools to measure the clearance.

Forgot to update this: Bled the whole system again. Went for a driive but the pedal was the same as before. I think the possibilty of makeing the brakes bind made me over compensate and I left too bigger gap between the 'push rod' and the master cylinder. So got to do it again :( The next day I put ...

I took a few pictures on Sunday morning before the doors opened. Pete - sorry we didn't cross paths somehow - see you at LITP On the Club Lotus stand we had the best year ever from a signing up new members point of view. Over 70,000 came through the doors which is back up to 2018 levels - pre Covid....

Look forward to seeing you all over the weekend. I am on the Club Lotus stand next door but please come over and say hello.
We have an Elise, Exige, Elan, Europa. Eclat and Esprit V8 on display.

With the instrument cluster out the other day I noticed one of the operating cables to the heater was flapping about. The little peg on the lever had snapped off. As luck would have it, it was easy to access so I tried to pull the lever off the spindle but no joy - it wasn't shifting. So as it would...

Bash - I also did the Tippex thing. As long as the pedal is improved and the brakes don't bind I'm happy. Question - I bled the brakes last Saturday. As only a small amount of air has got into where I removed the pipes and put bungs in the holes - can I get away with just bleeding the front brakes t...
