I'm looking for a better quality photograph of the sticker on later Excels detailing fuel types.
It's looking a bit tired and rather than just removing, I'd like to get a replacement.
Unless anyone knows if they are still available, will probably be contacting one of the sticker people on line.

Re: Fuel Sticker
Maybe a late attempt to pretend the car was going Green. - Put a picture of a green petrol pump on and ---Yeh -- Environmentally friendly.
Just don't look too closely that the wording states to only use higher Spec fuels. Wording actually states " This vehicle has been designed to operate on either UNLEADED ( 98 RON) or LEADED ( 97 RON) PETROL."
There is a part number on the sticker, but doesn't help: A089U0797.
Just need a better picture to show properly what the font was. The rest I can work out.

Re: Fuel Sticker
Are you missing a final letter off the part number?
Have you asked Lotus yet?

Re: Fuel Sticker
I have found mention of a Dual Fuel Sticker in the parts A082U0797F which isnt a million miles off your stated number.
2 required one on rear screen one on rear quarter panel
