I wish ! took the Excel from Brighton to Eastborne on the 40th anniversary Lamborghini run.
P#@sing with rain, but we got loads of piccies. My 7yr old was in his element.

Ive got a yellow excel. Picked the colour deliberatedly as I thought it looked amazing. Guess its not a macho colour for the guys, but as a LAYDEEE its perfect. As she is an 82 model, and therefore one of the first off the production line, I guess it may be the very first yellow excel made? I didnt realise that so few were coloured yellow, but I always like to be different and stand out from the crowd. She has a black badge, 62k on the clock, and is very dearly loved.

It is a cool colour

There was a yellow Elite at last years Donnington show:

Chris,

I'm being really retentive on this.

That Silver Excel has the correct bonnet but not rear wing for the year.

Yellow Elites are one of my favourites. If I had the room for a collection I'd be looking for a nice yellow 78/79 501 Elite with full leather. Might put an SE engine in it mind you.

Way back I used to own a black "JPS-style" 77 Elite but would have much preferred yellow....looks great with black bumpers and bonnet grille.

Yellow is a colour that tends to look OK on most Lotus cars IMHO.
