    Thank you

    Well, after 21 years of MLOC and 4 different Lotus ownerships (Elise S1, Exige S2, Evore LE, Exige S2 280s, I've had to admit that I can't get in and out of my S2 Exige in a small single garage anymore (without lots of shoulder pain), and have finally reliquished my beloved Lotus to Jon Seal. (it's the red one with black stripes). I just wanted to thank you all for 21 years of brilliant support and MLOC events. It made ownership more than just the car. May your cars always be lighter a

    Toxic Green S-Cup - (Aka Grogu)

    Hi all as with most of my cars I thought I’d start a bit of a build thread. However unlike most cars which I bought and built up to be highly modified the plans for the lotus are quite different and so this will be more thread of its life in my ownership. I have also created a Facebook page called “Toxic Green S-Cup - (Aka Grogu)” containing images of its progress pre and post purchase.
