Evening to you all, Well I got my spring from Parks Lotus (Glasgow) in Hamilton, a Big thank you to Gavin, Ross Brown and Cameron. You always get a friendly helpful approach to all your enquiries. As Bibs mentioned £98.05 + Vat each, but Ross did me a good deal. Thank you.

Thank you Bibs

Hi Folks I am :Looking for a set of Front Springs for my 2011 Lotus Evora S, does anyone have any?

Hi, Thanks for your help, I found after stripping out my light it was actually Rover part with the Model number on it (Rover XFG 000150 Clear), there is also a red option available, I went on eBay bought an original part one for £9.99 plus £4.00 Postage, it arrived today, same light with even the same plug on it, one of the threads mentioned cutting the wires and soldering the joint, then seal with heat shrink, this is not necessary you can carefully remove the plug by popping out the terminals, feed the cable through then pop on the plug, Simple. Hope this helps others with the same problem. Johnny.

Hi Folks, Possibly mentioned previously, my Spoiler Brake light has water internally and only lights now and again. Where can you get a replacement and how do you prevent the ingress of water. i have heard that a MG 25 light will fit? Also is it better fitting clear or the red replacement. Thank you in advance.

Hi, I am currently looking for a Valved Sports exhaust, the back box will be all i require. Please contact with what you have to offer, I am from Fife, Scotland. Thank you in Advance. Johnny.

Hi Scott, thank you for email, i managed to get handle mechanism out to find the carriage had a slight twist in it which was preventing the cable pulling properly which then caused the clip to pop out of handle. All fixed now and working sweet, Thanks. Johnny

PM Sent Scott Thanks Johnny

Hi I am having problems with my inside door handle, the cable keeps jumping out of the holder as it seems to have to much resistance to open using inside handle. Firstly has anyone had this same problem? Secondly i am trying to remove the door mechanism but can't get it out, any ideas? thanks in advance. Johnny

Thank You very Much, my motor has done 28,000 miles and front ones are corroded and warped and rears warped. As you will all know Genuine Lotus you won't get much change of £1,500.00

Hi Where is the best place to buy Discs and Pads for a 2011 Evora S, Preferably DS2500 pads, I live in central Scotland

Let's not forget why we all own Lotus cars, let's be serious for the money they cost the re-sale value and the performance they produce can you get better, this issue will resolve its self. As mentioned, yes closest Lotus Dealer is now Carlisle but I take this as still an option, it lets you drive your car and possibly make an event of it. We Have Craig Moncrieff who has great Knowledge of Lotus engineering. Since I bought mine I have had The Lotus Dealers stamp in the service Book, in Scotland Craig is so well known and services more Lotus cars than Leven did.

Hi Mark, So It was you, i didn't have a clue who it was, that's the top road to Mossmoran just outside Auchtertool church, nice view of Camila loch from there to. All the guys seem to be doing their own thing now. Jim Love is having some events, but not near as many as past years. Let me know when you get your esprit on the road again. I don't think we have had a breakfast meet this year. Cheers Johnny

Hi Brian, Unfortunately My one is still off road for some TLC, hope to get it back within the next two weeks.

Hi Guys, Not many names up as yet, we will be going. I think my Son ids also bringing his exige. 1. Al. 2. Dude (Mini-me - well all but in physique 😁) 3. Alfa2Evora 4 & 5. Johnny & Audrey

How about a wee drive round Fifes finest roads, Just a wee suggestion, Maybe Andrew Laing can incorporate a visit to his new foundry.

1 & 2 Brian & Jackie 3 & 4 Johnny & Audrey - eventually got the motor back after 8 and 1/2 weeks. 220 miles done on Sunday past. Vrooooom.

Hi Roan, Did you have the Flywheel replaced? Johnny

Hi, Where is the best place to buy Rear Brake pads for an Evora S 2011. can anyone send a link. thank you in advance. Johnny

Hi James I hate to be the bearer of bad news but my 2011 Evora S is in at Leven Lotus for exactly the same thing, unfortunately for me it is the clutch, my one had exactly the same symptoms, Mines has only done 25,000 miles not sure what yours has done. The big problem is Lotus don't have spares, mines has been of the road now for six weeks. Major Job, Whole back end off. Please let me know how you get on. Johnny
