Thank you ever so much for all the nice comments fellas. 

I'll now book LitP

I will use it, a little bit 😉

Doubtful I'll sell TBH I'm properly struggling emotionally. 

And thank you Kevin I'm absolutely made up. I really am.

John, just use the thing.  I got a quote from Option1 to respray mine and decided, what the hell, it would become more of a garage queen.  That’s why it’s off to Anglesey for the Exiges day....mind you, last time it went on track a gaitor split, put grease on the exhaust and it caught fire.  No damage but a bit scary.  The time before that the power cable snapped on the alternator and sent sparks flying... I have renewed my RAC membership.

It'll get driven, a little bit but not to LitP!  My wife has just fessed up she's booked a city break for my birthday that weekend.  She thought LitP was in July.  I am f*****g cursed getting to this event 😢

I really hate that Gav @ Unit 4, thinks he know it all...

 

 

HE REALLY DOES 🤣

So service no.2 since he got it running 600 miles run in found a few little niggles....2 little oil leaks, tiny and minor. Rear offside bearing, which TBH I thought was tyre noise and the sill coolant pipe is weeping. Luckily reachable. A days work he says.... I say fricking awesome. 

All in all I'll take that and I'll tell you What, it's running like an Arabian bloody stallion. My car is MEGA 😎

I can't read that emoji so I assume it's a thumbs up and not a middle finger. Lol

Lol defo not a finger Steve and I couldn't help but edit the post

No more niggles, Gav went the extra mile as always. 

Only thing however and to cut a short story shorter, a very nice gentleman and Lotus enthusiast flew in briefly this morning and bought it! So off to Holland it'll be going Friday. 

It all happened rather quick TBH but I'm genuinely happy it will be looked after and cherished by a very nice chap. I wish him well and hope he enjoys many miles for many years. 

THE END 👍🏻
