That's literally 5 mins away from where we stay. Nice part of the island.

I go there every year and stay just outside Rethymno at the Aquila Rithymna Beach. we have been all over the place. places I recommend are.. Knossos Palace nr Heraklion Chania Town Lake Kournas Souda Beach on the south coast nr Plakias Beach.

Same here. See you there.

I’ve taken mine off 3 times for re-covering. come off real easy. if they have never been off then there is a chance of corroded bolts. I always install any bolts with copaslip. No issues.

I've got my name down to go. Normally a good event.

Hi James, the PPF is clear but has a matte finish. I got mine from work as we use it on our race cars. Xpel make a matte PPF called Stealth. Readily available from what I’m aware. The Pods come off quite easily. 1 scrivet in the wheel arch and 2 bolts underneath the sill. Matt

In my garage. I wouldn't of bought the car if I had to keep it on the driveway.

Mine is tidy but no showroom. It’s just a nice workspace when I need it. 😀

Welcome to the club. First thing I did when I bought my Cup was cover all the black bits in matt PPF. The rubberised paint that Lotus use is absolutely rubbish. It’s an interior paint not meant to be used on the outside. I also used some rubber U channel around the edge of the rear pods. Just makes them bulletproof.

From what I’ve been told there were 153 S/220 Cups made. The only difference was the stickers. This info was written on a certificate of provenance from Lotus.

Hi Mike, Could I be added please?

Apologies, I meant the 205 fronts. It says in this that the rear tyres on the 260 were 235/40/17. https://www.lotussilverstone.co.uk/elise-cup-260/

Not from what I’ve been told. Matt Bentley Racing fits them to S2 Exige & Elise Cups. They said they are fine.

There is someone who tried those sizes on AD08RS on a Cup on the Facebook group. He said it had a marked improvement on handling and grip. Its the same as the 260 Cup setup.

I got mine from Seriously Lotus. You have the option to swap the TRD filter with a K&N version for a small cost.
