Esprit Picture & Video Thread

They get a bit compressed on here so quality is not the best but sadly this location is not longer available. Entirely my fault as well, I got the GT430 stuck here in January 2018. It made such a mess of the field (which is actually an aircraft landing strip) that they have fenced it off now! Doh!

Looks absolutely wonderful.

Are your rear tyres Goodyear 235 60 VR 15 or ZR 15?

Does it get any better?

Couldn't resist a break from work this afternoon.

Have a look at the trailer for the new Steve Coogan film “Greed” he’s got a good looking yellow co-star, hopefully it gets more screen time than in the trailer.

Yup. At 0:48

Coogan's own Esprit S1. Produced by Michael Winterbottom's Revolution Films, which has numerous links with Steeve Coogan.

The S1 has been in a number of adverts, programmes and on a number of fashion shoots.

And was featured in February 2008's Octane magazine, as well as being on the cover.

I used to own ULO658R - imagine my surprise when watching Alan Partridge earlier this year!
 

I didn’t know it had made its way back here from Jeff in the US...

just going through photos for the slideshow at my 50th and came across this. 

 

[Barrykearley]

Phew - thought I was gonna see some lubed ladyboys then....

[Sparky]

No pics of our 'excursions', I hope...

[Dan E]

Sparkles you do appear!! Only once I think as there is definitely a Copper going to be there and I am hoping he forgets his glasses!! 

[Chillidoggy]

Oh, Christ, are we going to have to put up with his holiday snaps again?

Good more free ones for everyone else 😂

[Sparky]

No, you misunderstand.  I'll be hitting up the free bar before the slideshow.  Planning to be there around 1430.

This isn't off-topic; here's a picture of a GT3:

It's a lovely drive from Ross-on-Wye up to Much Marcle. What better excuse to take the S4 out to pick up a crate of cider from Westons.

So many beautiful images of gleaming Esprits of concourse quality in this thread. Here's a somewhat dirty driven alternative
