Has that been added in post-production? Mine doesn't do it,  but it's just been tuned.

Either way, it's well down wiv' the kidZ.

My 2001 Lotus Esprit V8 today !!

[ChrisJ]

Sorry about the music,  I guess there aren't many in Sri Lanka.

Looks like the real deal to me but the interior is wrong as should be part black below the head rest, would be interesting to know what number it is showing.

May just be a replica or had a retrim.

Also looks like a 3 digit number, possibly 100, but I can’t enhance, so I asked the Q . Let’s see if the op responds.

pointed him here anyhow...

We know Domestic 100 went out there in 1981. It was in pretty poor condition. This may be it after restoration. A few details are wrong like the top of the seats and the "world champion" decals on the door. It's also missing the decal around the badge on the nose. RoW 022 went to Thailand but that has a black leather interior now.

A few more photos.  There is some chatter that it was bought in Japan and shipped down to Sri Lanka.

As the real things are in lockdown, I've been trying to recreate pix with my models!

I enjoyed the drive, even though it was about 3 metres in the garden!
