This has been in planning for a while on the Lotus Club International front.
Confirmed today.
Tickets are £30, kids under 15 free.
Lotus Sport will be active and will have, apparently, the GT3 and the Exige 265E on the go. Classic Team Lotus et al are due to be active as well.

This is the info I got back:
Hi Steve,
The open day on the 23rd September is for Lotus enthusiasts/club members
only. It is in celebration of 40 years of production at Hethel.
We will be opening the factory for tours, there will be technical forums,
club displays, engineering displays, F1 cars and exhibition, a farmers
market and lots of other stuff. Lotus Sport will also have a display and
there will be lots of track activity. The 2:Eleven will be on display and
you will be able to view it.
Tickets are £30 each per person and are available by calling me on 01953

Hope that helps,
Caroline

I'll be there, too. But with a roundtrip ticket for 89 Euros with LH to Heathrow, we are not driving...

We stayed at the Premierlodge Norwick Showground.
Bog atandard lodge.
Wynmondham looked nice if you can find one there.
