Evening everyone! There’s about 10/12 spaces remaining for TLF! Get your place reserved now! https://thruxtonracing.co.uk/hpod-lotus-forums For those coming, please remember to have your tickets confirmation email from Thruxton either printed or ready to show on your phone screen at arrival! If you can’t find the email, make sure you search your ‘junk’ folder for ‘Thruxton’, as some people have said their tickets have gone there! Look forward to seeing you all on the day! More info can be found here: www.hpopenday.Co.Uk 👍

Hi Everyone! The link to reserve your Lotus display vehicle place is now live for TLF members! We’re looking forward to seeing even more Lotus on display this year! When you reserve your place, you’ll get an email from Thruxton to confirm. You’ll need to bring this along with you on the day (either printed, or to display on your phone screen) to gain entry 👍 https://thruxtonracing.co.uk/hpod-lotus-forums

We’re sorting out unique ticket links associated with each club. They will be issued in around 10-14 days 👍

Hi everyone, I’m sure I’ve posted this on here, but can’t find it! The annual Lotus Southampton breakfast meet us next Sunday, 23rd April. We’ve just had confirmation from Hethel that the Eletre will be joining our showroom display for the event too! Full details here: https://facebook.com/events/s/lotus-only-breakfast-meet-at-h/3478390175822259/

@Bibs we’ve got you down for a club stand! We’ll have Emira and Eletre with us on the day for sure! (We’ve even got Eletre at next weekend’s Southampton Lotus breakfast meet 😃) Breakfast meet details here: https://facebook.com/events/s/lotus-only-breakfast-meet-at-h/3478390175822259/

Hi Everyone, We’re hosting our first ‘Lotus Only’ breakfast meet of the year on 23rd April, at our Southampton Hendy Performance showroom. Starting at 9.30am, we’ll be welcoming as many Lotus as we can to join us for a morning of everything Lotus! We’ll have a refreshment van offering hot and cold drinks along with breakfast rolls for sale. We had 55 Lotus at our last Breakfast meet, let’s see how many we can get this time!

We’ve just added an extra 50 tickets this morning, so you should be ok to reserve a place. If it’s still saying sold out, please do come along anyway, and if anyone asks, just say John said it would be ok 👍 Perfect! Look forward to seeing you all on Sunday! Our reservation cap is now raised to 600 cars, so it’s going to be very busy again 😃

Thanks for coming along again today @internetsit was a great morning! Hope you enjoyed your visit too! 3 Emiras in one location was pretty good going! That’s not happened often outside of Hethel!

We’re keeping our fingers crossed, but it’s looking good at the moment! We’ve had reservations for 600 cars, so it’s going to be busy and big! 👍

They’re in planning as we speak! We’ll certainly be holding a few of them this year. We also have our ‘big’ event - the Hendy Performance Open Day at Thruxton - in planning for late June too! Hope to see you at a few of them!

Happy New Year everyone! After the success of our previous Coffee Run meets, we're back again doing the same for the remainder of the winter. Dates as follows: Sunday 15th Jan Sunday 19th Feb Sunday 26th March The ticket link for each one will be open around 2 weeks before the event, via this link: www.thruxtonracing.co.uk/coffee-run We look forward to seeing you there! Best Regards John - Hendy Eastleigh

Thanks for coming along yesterday @internets Hope you had a great morning with us. We ran 4 counts of cars, and all came back between 587 and 618 cars - so we're averaging that to '600 cars!' Great pictures 🙂 See you soon John

Dark Verdant Green needs to be seen in sunlight to be fully appreciated, it’s absolutely stunning - but then again, I’d still order Hethel Yellow, Full Black Pack, Silver Wheels myself….. 😁

Can’t wait to have a go in this one! 😍

Well, the weather wasn’t particularly kind to us for our first Coffee Run event at Thruxton! We welcomed over 380 cars on the day, so luckily didn’t put too many people off coming. Our next Coffee Run at Thruxton is confirmed for Sunday 20th November starting at 9.30am. Register to attend via this link https://thruxtonracing.co.uk/coffee-run We hope to see some more Lotus at the next event! But I’ll leave with some pictures of a few that did make it this time 😃

Of course! There’s no ‘specification’ of car for the event, all enthusiasts and their cars are most welcome!

Thank you for sharing my post! You are, of course, welcome to come along in another car if your Elise is SORN'd 😀

Hi Everyone! Following on with the Hendy Performance (Lotus) Thruxton partnership, and our fantastic summer Open Day event, we’ve organised a series of winter breakfast meets at the circuit! All tarmac parking, with the superb Thruxton Centre Restaurant opening to serve breakfast rolls and drinks! The first event is Sunday 23rd October, then Sunday 20th November, both with a 9.30 start. We appreciate many Lotus will be tucked up for the winter, but likewise, many will be ready to have their legs stretched and drivers fed and watered on a Sunday morning! The meet is open to all makes and models, but I’d love to have some Lotus along! We won’t be having allocated club zones etc, but if you arrive together in a convoy, you’ll be parked together too! More Info and ticket reservations for the first event here: www.thruxtonracing.co.uk/coffee-run Feel free to post any questions below Hope to see you there! John (Hendy Performance & Lotus Brand Manager)

Good Evening everyone! Sorry for joining in late this evening! I’ve been at Thruxton for the last 3 days getting set up - having been there till 11.15 last night (it’s a funny thing putting up signs with the only light coming from a Ford Transit headlight!) and was back again at 5.30 this morning to finish off and get everything staged. It’s been great to read the positive feedback about the event, and I’m really delighted to hear that (everyone who’s commented so far) had a great time with us. I was desperately hoping to get round and say hello to lots of people, but alas, that didn’t happen, I was running the timings on the stage and track, and hosting our ambassadors - Tiff Needell, Petrol Ped and Aron Taylor-Smith (I sat hosting, more like telling them what to do next!) We’ll absolutely be doing it again next year, and can’t wait to get planning it. if you’ve got any feedback on how you think it could be better, different, and what you thought was good/great/could be better at todays event I’d love to hear it to make 2023 even bigger and better! My sincere thanks to TLF members, many of whom I know made a long journey to be with us, and I look forward to catching up with you at one of our showrooms or events in the future With Best Regards John.

We’ve been told not to expect a production car, it will be one of the press cars / evaluation vehicles - but it will be open for everyone to have a sit and a good look around. Scott Walker is giving his Sunday up to come along and chaperone the car, so he’ll know all about it 😃

Plus we club stands from LDC and Club Lotus, so there’s going to be plenty of Lotus there! 👍

Hi Exeterjeep, The showground will open at 8.30 for display cars to arrive and get settled, have some breakfast etc before the show opens to the public at 10.00am. Once the public are ‘in’ we’d prefer minimal vehicle movements, but you’re free to arrive and leave as you please. The Exeter and Poole team will be joining us on the day, as will an Emira from Hethel, accompanied by ‘Mr Lotus’ Scott Walker. I believe the first Paul Swift stunt show (which is epic if you haven’t seen his work before) is at 10.30am so well worth being in by then!

Afternoon everyone! If you have any questions about the event, don’t hesitate to ask me (I’m running it!) Lotus have confirmed that there will be an Emira with us on the day! TLF still have around 9 spaces available if anyone else wants to register and come along to display their car with the club! Look forward to seeing you next weekend!
