Something like that, probably. So #20 is not for me, unfortunately. #11 is in German reg. So if I want GTE, it should be earlier than #11. I'll ask from Lotus about CoC.

Yes, I'am looking for LHD. We have RHD Elise (Wifes car), it's not best solution here. And Evora is much wider, so more complex to use. So, #20 is interesting. I have spent some hours to read this thread, mainly I tried to understand what GTE is. Of course I have seen all comments before. To get car registered here in Finland the CoC is mandatory and also EU-level type approval is needed. Is it so that GTE is officially Evora S? If so, then registration should be easy. I have bought N/A Evora from Italy, so I should know the prosedure. My current Evora, N/A IPS 2011, is like 'semi-daily' driver. I mean it is used all year round when needed. Not sure if I can do this with GTE. My countrys stubid car tax is something I have to take into consideration. This tax will be about 40%!! calculated from cars average value.

I just found that #20 is for sale. Some calculations and discussions with better half is needed now.

My Esprit is 046, and should be on registry.

I had the honour to meet Roger. What a nice person and what a career. Rip Roger

Not so much snow over here.

We were in same place. My Esprits spoiler is next to silver one.

Happy Birthday, have a good day!

I found this same days ago. Not sure is the price in correct level. I have seen this car and it's in good condition. It was for sale two years ago, asked 34000€ from memory. https://www.classicdriver.com/en/car/lotus/esprit/1986/243275

Sorry for delay, I have been too lazy with this forum. Yes, my car was in Vanajanlinna. Very easy to take part this meeting. Only 5 kilometers from home. Never seen other V8 Esprit with finnish reg. plates. I have discussed with the new dealer. They sell parts also to older cars also. But no experience yet. They have also service, a company called huolto-rep.

Some pics from finnish dealers showroom. Evoras rear was worse than I have excepted. Black car inside the bilding was not the best place to look it. Must see it again on sun. Evora starts from 167000€, with extras and IPS it will be 175000. :(

Just now new Evora 400 will be too expensive for me. Because of stupid car tax system, it's priced over 160.000€. But I'll ask quote of course.
