390ja Posted December 28, 2021 Report Share Posted December 28, 2021 Wondering if this could be a thing in here as most have received theirs, or will be very soon. Would it be a security risk to post the serial number of the cars for the records?.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toqcars Posted December 28, 2021 Report Share Posted December 28, 2021 Good idea. We could hide full serial numbers from the public, if risky. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bibs Posted December 30, 2021 Report Share Posted December 30, 2021 I can start a publicly editable spreadsheet on Google Drive if it'll help? Not sure if there's anything nefarious that someone could do with a VIN number to be honest so can't see the harm in listing them unless anyone knows different. 1 Quote 88 Esprit NA, 89 Esprit Turbo SE, Evora, Evora S, Evora IPS, Evora S IPS, Evora S IPS SR, Evora 400, Elise S1, Elise S1 111s, Evora GT410 Sport Evora NA For forum issues, please contact the Moderators.

390ja Posted December 31, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 I’ve tried to put my details in but i seem to be struggling on the iPhone app to do line breaks without entering a new cell 🤦♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Estall Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 Information I have received from Andy Graham is that the last UK build 420 Sport Final Edition came off the production line on 29th October 2021. This was in Pearl Yellow, black matt delete (except the rear transom panel and headlights) with exterior accents including the carbon roof. This was the 5th from last 420, the remaining 4 being exported to UAE and New Zealand. There were only 34 UK 420s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martrack Posted March 30 Report Share Posted March 30 Interesting ! Do you perhaps have same info for Cup 430 Final Edition ? Thank you 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold FFM CocoPops Posted March 30 Gold FFM Report Share Posted March 30 I've got a Certificate of Provenance, through @Bibs, due soon that will hopefully give the info for Cup250s. It's always really interesting in and a worthwhile reason to sign up to TLF as a gold member (along with the ProValet kit, also due soon hopefully). 1 Quote Current: 2021 Lotus Elise Cup 250 FE in Isotope Green, Red Alcantara Interior, Carbon Aero Kit, AirCon, Carpets & Mats, NVH pack, Cruise Control, Stereo, Red Calipers.

I know that Lotus kept the very last 430 FE for themselves and I believe Bell & Covill had the second to last in Monaco White, Tartan Trim as a nod to the S1 Esprit which is now sold. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted March 30 Report Share Posted March 30 I’ve just received my cert of provenance. my car was 12 of only 28 cars in the uk. If there’s a similar amount of 430s then final editions are very rare but then I guess they are anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
