That sounds pretty positive. That is fast. Takes longer to get my car booked in with Watford Exotics 😀 Good luck with next week.

Apparently Lotus still do but I wonder if the capitalisation makes a difference: https://trademarks.ipo.gov.uk/ipo-tmcase/page/Results/1/UK00002558401

That is one way to deal with Bob, drown him in alcohol this weekend 😀 Good luck and enjoy the weekend trip.

Happy Birthday @Barrykearley 🎂

Here is a not very creative joke but one I thought might just put a smile on your face today @Sparky “Why did the proctologist drive a brown Lotus Esprit? Because he wanted to get to the bottom of things… and maybe hit 60 mph in under 5 seconds!” 😄

Sounds like you found your new hobby to keep you busy now 😀

The suspension on the Mk 3 NC can be sorted by changing to Meister coilovers.

Great photos. Really nice to see everyone again.

I think I will be leaving this country at some point. It has drastically changed for the worse over the years. My eldest son graduated university in September and now has a job in Greece. Apparently, all the best jobs in the fields of finance and commodities have moved abroad since Brexit. The new hubs seem to be Amsterdam, Paris and Geneva. Most of the the big firms were recruiting in the UK for graduate roles in those cities. He is 5 months into the job and he says he is the happiest he has ever been. He loves the job but also the weather and lifestyle. Even in January, when cold, the sun is always out and you can still sit by the sea with a warm coat and have a coffee. This weekend he is going to the beach. He says he never wants to come back to the UK! I will wait to see what happens to the younger son and may follow them.

I am now planning to make this on Sunday.

I think Fallout deserves a binge watch 😀

I owned 2 NA (Mk 1 with pop up lights) in the past. One was a lovely limited edition 1.8 R Limited in a dark metallic blue and the other was a modded 1.6 track mule. Both amazing and cheap to run. I could get a set of 4 Toyo Proxes for the track car for just over £100 !

Which garage did you but from ? Sounds like they are looking after you and standing by the car.

I'm away I am afraid. Enjoy !

Hi @ChrisJ - Unfortunately I will have to withdraw from this Sunday as the wife has made other arrangements for me 😐

Put me down please @ChrisJ

Happy Birth Anniversary @Sparky

Congrats on another year DanE !

I could be up for meeting Filip again and some of the other retrobates.

Nothing planned yet other than a 10 day visit to Athens over the Easter holidays at the end of March. Need to start planning in order to catch up with the rest of yous lot ! @Sparky - Naples and the surrounding area such as the Amalfi Coast is great.

Merry Xmas to one and all TLFers and their families 🎄

Happy holidays everyone

Happy Birthday Filip....great meeting and sitting next to you for the Xmas get together. Have a great day.

I can't make the 17th but enjoy

Thanks @Bibsfor organising and all the great company. Finally made it to one and it was well worth it !
