Just wondering if the owner on here?

Evening all, One of my two keys has stopped working - no response when I push any button. I've tried a new battery but still nothinga. Are there any fixable known issues or do I need a new key?

Last year I came around a post somewhere in the forum with a full list of the 60 Evora GT 430 spotted around the world with a colour description and country. unfortunately I can’t find it anymore. if anyone can help to locate that list again I would very much appreciate. My Evora GT 430 was also on that list.

Spotted a few times this week in the Bay, this morning filling up at the BP. Sounds rorty, 220 Sport? Any one on here?

Hi All Can anyone tell me if you can still buy new, of after market, the SE style front Lower Lip, with the side cutout vents? I need on for my car here in Australia. If anyone knows the best place to get one, please let me know.

right chaps - I've been busy last year on the restoration of a field barn. Got a spanking on a planning application where the road access was not drawn on the application with dimensions. Huff...... I am going again in the next month or so. I have an existing farm access onto the site. But the visibility is not to the moon and back as they would like - I do have 76m one way and 90m the other or there abouts. Now working with the highways guy to overcome - we have an atc on the road presently. He seems ok about it all - but needs data to back up. Anyone on here a guru in these matters.........? Happy to remunerate, would rather go with a fellow lotus guy.... Chee…

After nearly 9 years, I'm part ex'ing the Evora S tomorrow. Is it normal to get emotional. I wouldn't say it's been 9 trouble free years with a new clutch, flywheel and gearbox required but it has been many years of children's gawping faces and the time a chap walked straight past my mates Gallardo to ask me if he could take a photo of the Evora 🤣. It's definitely a good looking car.

Off you go…..

Hi gents, I'm very intrigued in the Radical cars world and I'd like to know your opinion about that, how is considered in the UK cars world the Radical brand and their build quality and service? Seems to me that they are very well considered in the race world, also, is the company owned by UK people or something else? Thanks Giorgio

Just reading and saw news about the potholes that are now everyday avoidance wherever you go now! I lost the count where and how bad the holes are now ? It’s a case to avoid by swerve the hole if it’s safe or go another route ! For owners like us we want to enjoy our cars but as the roads are deteriorating at such a rate it’s making it not a cheap or enjoyable experience Wondering should as a forum writing to Daily Mail campaign outlining concerns etc ? Now considering getting extra insurance to cover wheel alloy damage as I suspect the route of claiming back from councils is almost impossible ?

Looking for Quaife LSD for Esprit UN1 transmission, PN# QDF5M.

I'd appreciate if someone could take a look at the attached photos and advise if this is the correct routing of the cross-tank/fuel pump line for an S2 (Federal). I purchased this hose assembly from SJ a number of months ago and it isn't a very comfortable fit at all. I would have thought Lotus would have done something different but, of course, I may have installed it wrong so any clarification would be appreciated. The stainless steel line that exits the pump and crosses the chassis is fine - the problem is with the feed line to the pump and the corresponding tank lines - it's a sloppy fit ! I wish I'd have made my own line - I likely would have made it differently …

So across the board for any new to me car im considering, prices are crazy!! not sure what to believe with regards to what I read...ie prices will stay high for a while and may even increase but id be interested to know if cars are actually selling at the prices advertised as I see a lot sitting around for a long time Can anyone remind me what the 410 and 430 cars originally retailed at please Thanks

Did tanks for Colin @Choppa last week down at his lovely place in Dorset. Stayed over and we had a drink or six, smashing. This job was notable as it was the first time I've had to butcher a tank insitu to get it out. No way was that LH tank moving with the engine in place. Forunately I had my Milwaukee reciprocating saw handy. It was messy.

Hi folks! I need your help again. I am done with the work on the suspension of my 92 SE HighWing, but the car is now 2,5 cm higher on the right side than on the left (measured at the top of the wheel arch). I did new springs, new dampers, new rubber seats, replaced all bushes on the suspension (Poly-bushes). I see no way to adjust the height of each side?! Can anybody help? What went wrong? Thanks, Patrick PS: the top of the springs have the same distance to the ground on each side….
