Being in the US, I have never even seen an Excel. Even the car I am buying I have never seen, let alone driven! It's 2500 miles away.
Does anyone have any pictures that I can see and download? Any would be appreciated. Does anyone have any shots of an Excel on the track or other action shots?
Thanks,
Barry

Thanks All.
Stefan, I'm buying an 89 SE Calypso Red. Rwd, which isn't a problem as I owned a rwd Esprit Turbo. #57, last one for 1980 and is on/in several Esprit books. Basically an Essex in white. I really miss it.
Anyone can send pics to bk.hayes@adelphia.net
By the way, a few years ago the SCCA outlawed right wheel drive due to an "unfair advantage" on the turns. I immediately withdrew my membership. Not that I was racing, just on principle.

Mike,

Is that homepage shot Paddock at Brands.

Awesome corner. Did a single seater day there last year (wet April morning).

Just loved the experience of the negative chamber as the car ran through.

The best part was watching all the young lads, who'd turned up in Golfs, Astras etc. struggle on the damp track with rear wheel drive.
