Afternoon all, Newbie to the forum but not to Lotus ownership and soon to join MLOC. I've invested heavily over the last 12 months in having work done to bring my 23-year old Elise up to scratch with the excellent PJS Sportscars. My MOT is due in November and I cannot really afford to annually service my car this year (especially as my mileage is only around 1,000 miles per year. I'll probably service it with PJS when I've done 2-3,000 miles. In the meantime I cannot avoid an MOT and was wondering if anyone has decent garage recommendations just for an MOT but with experience of an Elise who will take care I'm based around Telford TF11 TIA P…

Happy New year everyone. Hope you all have a great 2024 driving or showing your Lotus car. We did our drive around Europe last year in the Europa, just over 2600 miles. For 2024 we have current plans for the Lotus. Do you have any adventures planned?

Merry Christmas everyone. I hope you all have the best Christmas you possibly can. Love those you are spending it with, remember lovingly those you can’t be with you. May Santa bring you a tank that never runs dry, speed that makes you feel you can fly, tyres you can always rely on and bends stretching to the horizon.

Hi All I'm looking for an experienced Auto Electricain in the Matlock/Bakewell/Chesterfield area. Seems to be difficult to find one who hasn't at some point got a review which goes along the lines of 'cost me a lot of money and didn't fix the problem'. Obviously keen to avoid this scenario. Not Lotus related (thank goodness!). Any pointers much appreciated. Hartley

Evening, Like to first introduce myself I'm Theo Clives son posting this on his behalf. As many of you may know or didn’t know that our Dad/ Clive had been battling cancer quietly for some years. It feels right to let people know that in the early hours of this morning after being taken ill sadly he passed away. Peacefully, with family supporting him at his bedside after losing his final battle with cancer. He touched the hearts and souls of so many but will always live on in the memories of those he did.

I’m so close to upgrading my Elise S2 to an Exige Sport 350. I’ve been offered £15k p/ex against a £43k Exige!! This is a cash deal so I guess the dealership isn’t interested as there is no finance commission etc….. to be earned. Apparently, £15k is the going price!!! I fully appreciate and understand how p/ex works but this is a bloody insult. So come on, show me an Elise S2 (08MY) with 43,000 miles on the clock for £15k. I can’t find one. Packet of Hobnobs for the winner.

Many thanks to Hartleyj and Deanb for their swift replies and for pointing me to Paul at PJS sports cars. Yes he is a straight guy and has agreed to take a look, so will let you know how we get on. Out of interest does any one know where MOY 286 L is? It was the car I built.

Hi, My T49 will be on the LDC stand at the upcoming NEC classic car show in Nov. Been busy getting it ready, with a deep clean, replacing a tatty piece of gold tape on the passenger door, replacing the headlight covers seals and outer tape, engine bay back to black applied etc 1st time I've ever clay barred a car body and then I decided to apply a ceramic coating. Still got a few jobs to do, but by and large it's finished, and happy with the results. Cheers
