Esprits required for ABSOLUTE Lotus group test

[Chillidoggy]

Adam, this is now all too late in the day for me I’m afraid. Since I had no info until 3 hours ago, I now have other work commitments for the remainder of this week which I cannot change. It’s not enough notice for me.

I do hope you can find another S4s owner who’s free, though.

Bit of a change of plan as this has become so last-minute.

We're now going to do it on Monday 11th so we can find those last few cars.

[AdamWilkins]

Hi chaps,

Right... we're getting somewhere with some firm plans now!

We're going to be doing the photoshoot on Monday (11th) at Burton Dassett Hills Country Park, which is close to J12 of the M40. It'll start at 10am, and we'd hope to be wrapped up by about 3pm, and will get pics and drive of the cars that have come furthest first to get them on their way.

Could @Dan E, @Chillidoggy and @Llewelyn82 let me know if this date suits? (@Sparky – I've emailed you!).

Cheers,
Adam.

Apologies Adam, the chap I know with a Sport 300 is travelled back from the TT on that day so isn't available.

Sorry Adam, that's nowhere near enough notice for me. I have a Company to run, and cannot simply take time off at such short notice. I hope someone else here with an good S4s can step in, @Royal?

[Royal]

Sorry gents, I can’t help out. 

[Sparky]

And the management (Tracy) has just told me I'm in error as to my availability Monday.  Can we not do this with at least a week's notice, preferably more?

[Chillidoggy]

A week? Pfffft.

Some of have a day job, you know.

[ChrisJ]

How about on a weekend - not working then.

...and probably nobody on the magazine is either!

In the off chance this gets moved past the 15th, then my S1 would be back in play, work permitting 😊

[Dan E]

I can make Monday but it will be awkward. I do agree if we could get at least a weeks notice it would be good and get the rest of the cars together also. was just thinking if anyone interested getting a cheap pub to stay in, the night before for a couple of pints and a steak and ale pie.  

Also to get the 300 and an S1 there would be good the weekend will work. 

 

 

[Llewelyn82]

Sorry, I can't make Monday - It's too short notice for me I'm afraid!

[AdamWilkins]

OK, let's try for Tuesday 19th. That really is the last day we can do it to get it into the issue.

Who's in?

[Bibs]

I'll check if Mark is available with his 300

[Sparky]

19th works for me.

[Dan E]

Me to 

 

[Dan E]

Still reckon cheap pub room, pub food and a few beers somewhere close is the way to go on the 18th, anyone? 

If not I will invite @Bibs  he is always up for a beer 

[Chillidoggy]

I’m out. Factory visit on that day.

[AdamWilkins]

Thanks chaps.

@Dan E - can you send me an email with your mobile number, and I'll send back more details for the day itself.
@JNW3 - would the 19th be good for you?

I was hoping to prove we're nothing like the BBC

Steak & beer on @Dan E, yaaaaaay 😁

[Dan E]

[Sparky]

I'm all ears...
