PhilW Posted October 1, 2021 Report Share Posted October 1, 2021 Hi I have been asked to display my Copper Esprit at an event next April relating to film cars. As well as many other films they intend to be celebrating 60 years of James Bond. Organizers have discovered the white S1 Esprit they had lined up will no longer be available so they are looking for a replacement. It is a charity event for a childrens hospice. I believe also help with costs may be available. Please PM if any white S1 owners are interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

williamtherebel Posted October 5, 2021 Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 Just seen this thread. (ive been away). Bolton isn't that far from me ( Blackpool) so if you don't get fixed up I can make my S1 available. However, although its white it doesn't have the tartan interior.

PhilW Posted October 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 Lez, Thats great thank you. I am waiting a reply from someone who has shown interest so must follow that first. I will let the organisers know that there are now a potential two. They might be keen for two. I dont know. Wouldn't worry about the interior. My interior is not correct but its a charity event for kids so neither here nor there in my opinion. Will come back to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
