Good morning all. I have been asked to organise a nice line up of Esprits for The Lotus Festival. It's unlikely that it will be a "full timeline" but it would be great to get a full representation fro

We need lots more than that, then are 20+ distinct Esprit models/variants but I'm sure we'll be happy with the chaps who turn up.

Which day would you prefer my dry sump Turbo was there? I plan on bringing it up one of the days, not too fussy which one, but I want to use the other one to get new tyres put on the Exige.

Yes agreed - plenty of other models I didn't mention - just some that would be more obvious than others. All models are welcome! But do hurry. If you need tickets and are on the display - please PM Bibs to arrange delivery.

 

Jonny - would Sunday be OK?

Can another SE (1990) join in on the fun? Might get a bit envious of Dave's though :)

 

What are the logistics - what time do you need to turn up, and what's the better day to be there?

 

Edit - I should have asked from when and for how long is the display? Karen's 5 months pregnant so might not be able to handle the full day! :)

I may not have helped as much as I'd hoped as I appear to be double parked.  I first offered my car to the TLF Stand....but at that stage it was priority given to both day people.  So I offered the car to this Esprit display on Sunday only.  I've since been nominated for the TLF Stand on the Sunday....and am still down as in this display too.  I'm happy for the car to be in either place on the Sunday just need to know which place you'd prefer.  I've already bought all of my tickets.

 

Cheers Mike

MPx have removed you from the line. No probs.
 
Everyone needs to be rolled up and in place by 0900 on both Saturday and Sunday.
 
Don't forget to PM Bibs if you need tickets. Being sensible - those who need tickets posting need to PM Bibs by the latest lunchtime tomorrow to be on the safe side.
 
Any other takers?

Paul.

What time realistically do you want us rocking up?

Where abouts on the circuit will this be? We are camping so need to know how to access that as well.

Sorry if I'm asking some muppet bone questions !!!

Cheers

Yes , I will need ETA also  , It can take me 3 hours to get there so need to consider restrictions.

To quote the MSV website, "The event will also be celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Lotus Esprit, forever associated with its starring role in James Bond movies. It's also a milestone year for the Elise sports car, which was first unveiled 20 years ago, and the Lotus Carlton, which is 25 years old. Many examples of these cars will be parading the track with other Lotuses"

 

Anything confirmed that we will/may be able to parade the track at some point on the day ?

So for clarity. All cars need to be in situ by 0900 on each day. Ideally we'd like people to stay until the end / almost the end each day to keep the display intact.

 

The map as to where you need to arrive at is right here

 

I will be the overweight sweaty person trying to line you all up. I look forward to meeting you!
