  1. found 10971 its a black and gold Esprit (JPS colours) and it has full essex spec, (compomotive wheels, one arm louvers, and ofcourse the roof stereo) but it need a lot of work, connection rod broke down (more dry sump cars had that problem in the past) i am on it, and maby it comes my way, the interior is full black leather
  2. because it was written off, and sold to europe, so i dont look as the wreckt #15 essex..... colour code A16 is also Essex Blue, so this was #15 also the interior is pianted black, as you can see some red spots on the interior (when it was a real essex back in those days)
  3. all that info came from me, i have told the owner that the car number 15 is, but be carefull with that, its a written off car it had a big accident back in 1982 and they also blow up the orginal engine, there is no a other dry sump engine inside,
  4. my silver Esprit dry sump is almost ready, who is interested? its a 1 of 1 made, with tobacco interior, and the first car after the essex production cars, and full of essex options, (incl. the owners manual) VERY orginal car, and low mileage, many history, and only 5 owners, this is a very special Esprit Turbo Dry sump. needs to go to the right new UK owner,
  5. it says in the ad. the only one yellow esprit turbo, thats wrong, here in the netherlands there is a dry sump esprit in yellow with brown tobacco interior that car still runs, and have a MOT.
  6. i know the orginal Owner, this is a scam!!!!

Hi Esprit owners, i am allready busy to put up the 2nd international esprit meeting, the first meeting back in 2022 was a great event! there where a lot of esprits, and a great drive around the meeting location this second edition, i aim on more esprits, i know allready that the same guys from the first meeting will come again, and i also know from 5 owners that they will come over with there S1 esprit, also will be there a LHD Essex esprit (real one) so hopefully also some esprits essex from the UK? every Esprit is welcome, you also will get a "goodie bag" still busy with it, but it will become fine! more info will follow!
  14. i have soon a orginal set for sale maby 2 sets, (compomotive CX 500 wheels) in the right sizes, 4x100 for somebody who is looking for orginal ones and 4x100.. just send me a message,
  15. still not knowing what to buy, for my 84 and 86 esprit turbo, i know the rear is the same, but at the front i just want the right ones, i dont care how stiff or lose (Supple) the suspension is, its the wheel gap that must be right, (its all about the looks!) somebody more info what to buy?
  16. Thank you for the answer, i still have some questions, i send you a message, (private) if there are other owners of adjustable suspension please put down your story, and how it looks like now, with some pictures and so on, so i know what to buy for my 84 and 86 esprit turbo
  17. Hi Guys, i never orderd adjustable suspension for a Esprit Turbo, so i have some questions, hopefully some of you can answer them, i have 2 LHD esprit turbo cars, and both they are still standing on orginal suspension, and that orginal suspension looks awfull, because the wheel gap is just to much i need to lower both car, the paperwork from both cars is 1986, BUT i have check the chassis numbers from both and also the front brakes, and one of the 2 cars is not from 1986 but its a 84 car, (so it has the old brake discs) the qeustions, are : i never orderd adjustable suspension for a G turbo esprit, and i am from the netherlands, so i need to buy the right set(s) and not wrong ones because i am not from UK the qeustions, are : 1 = whats the best/cheapest to go for?? i have found at SJ sportcars the pro tech set, but the GAZ set will be cheaper (if i see to the prices incl. VAT and sending cost to The Netherlands) 2 = adjustable suspension is different on a 84 model then on the 86 model, its all about the front i think, it needs to be sure for me that i could adjustable the front suspension as wel as the rear ones, (to get the right wheel gap and road height) 3 = what i want to order is in total 2 complete sets, (4 springs + adjustable suspension for the 84 esprit turbo and 4 springs and adjustable suspension for the 86 Esprit Turbo) and ofcourse the right ones, who can help me out????? MANY THANKS ALLREADY!!
  18. and 25mm is the correct size to order the set of 8 decals or not? i also still need 8 of those on my 2 cars!
  19. i know Jaap very well, (thank you anyway, to put my name down here) i will send him a message, Greetings Tocus
  20. i just read this, Great what you have done to the car, this #44 really deserves it great that you own it now, and finally finish the car, where SJ started with, i am looking out for a ROW (LHD) JPS, that should be great for me, keep up the good work, and when all is done, enjoy this piece of Lotus History! My Old JPS car,
  21. the brown full Leather on a S3 i have only seen on a White, Silver, and Yellow body colour , and only in 1980 and 1981 not the later ones, i also dont know what the reason was that the brown leather was not a option anymore, does somebody knows that? the most cars where White with Brown full leather,
  22. finnaly.... why did it took so long, those cars will be NEVER made again! Its a shame those esprits are still so cheap!
  23. exactly..... it dont sells, so "i will ask more" it dont works, they guys who want to buy a essex are rare, and only a hand full,
  24. Many Thanks, i will tell that to my friend who has a wheel company, he can do that for me, Greetings Bauke
