Fabian As soon as Andy has finished with my ski mounts would you like to borrow them? they may help you

Thanks Fabian about comment on other car Andy its probably best if I post you one of the top and one of the bottom as would be very difficult to do profile measurement's, is a 2-3 week loan enough time, the top one should be identical to the one in the movie, the bottom one has an extra 4 inches of fiberglass on the bottom as it needs trimming at a strange angle you will see what I mean when you receive, wont be able to post till next week, with regards to the bottom mount bracket you may not need them as the skis should hold them in place but that's up to you to decide. My email is [email protected]

Andy I got mine made by Boss motors in Norfolk he has the original moulds from Lotus from the movie, they have to be trimmed up

I painted the front valance on mine satin black and the sills white, more cost effective that way if I wanted to change them to satin black if I changed my mind, I will send further pictures once the car is finished

between 7 and 7 1/2 ltrs I've just done mine

Try phoning Matt on 07816666056 UK number I know he has a spare dry sump engine and also rebuilds them

11360 VPK364Y Copper with full Gold leather interior, olin MKV1 skis and ramps (not fitted) and aircon, classic car magazine featured as 007 Bond car

Does any one know how many of the original copper Esprit Turbos were ever made?, I thought it was around 20 and made obsolete in 1982

Got to agree on Rudd on that one, these cars have been undervalued for many years and it seems the rare ones have started to hit there mark, I doubt this will be on the market for more than 2 weeks

I am not entirely sure about the Essex stripes, not in my ownership anyway, yes its a dry sump
