ozontour 0 Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 Great News!! Got my girl on the road and pushing the 200kph without an issue... well a small overboosting issue but most likely just a leaking hose. Russell Island aye Roger? the ferry is only minutes from here, (6 or 7), you can park up here if you want and i candrop you rather than leaving the Esprit down at the seaside carpark. Next thing now is to tidy up the workshop and reinstate the Lotus Bar. I will start a new thread titled Brisvegas Hoon 2009 once i speak with Roger and see what dates he is looking at coming up. the more the merrier. I have already picked out a route B) Until then, Merry Christmas to all and a very HappyNew Year, I hope Santa is as good to you as he has been to me already Justin "Laugh" and the world laughs with you - "Cry" and you just wet your face...

steve82T 0 Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 Feel free to add me to the map with 1982 S3 turbo in Perth Western Australia. - One of many Esprits in the Perth area. (I now have details of 26 Esprits here - covering all models from S1's to V8's, and are aware of several more that I don't know the owners of yet). Hopefully we can organise a Perth Esprit day out!

ramjet 1,090 Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Steve, I'll be in that whenever you can sort something out. I am also on the Yahoo group after meeting some of the other guys at the Waroona show. Didn't realise there was that many esprits over here in WA. Michael.

pomoz 0 Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 G'day ALL Never realised that there were so many Esprits in Perth .. with 100klm of it . When i lived there for a little while ....20 odd years ...I NEVER SAW 1 ESPRIT That would be right i leave .. live in UK for 10-12 years ..Then bring out a Esprit. They all come our of the woodwork ...... pomoz Cough Cough Im Off Link to post Share on other sites
ozontour 0 Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 I think a fair amount of them were imported as personal imports mate, they probably were not there when you were. importing them is a cheap way to do it nowadays as opposed to paying 200k+ for them new. apparently they are not as nice underneath as our Aussie delivered cars due to the weather and salt on the roads etc... only hearsay mind you, me no expert Justin...

pomoz 0 Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 Oh good I will probably be flying over West early JUNE 09 ,, to a mates daughter's wedding ... might try and tee up a few looks at the Gcars in Perth ... while im there. You are right Justin ,about the underneath of imported Esprits... a bit tatty and surface rust on springs shocks etc .. not like Aussi delivered cars ...... Also driving from Norwich to Southampton in heavy snow... then placed on RO/RO ship ... by the time i got it again ... the rust was starting to smile pomoz Cough Cough Im Off Link to post Share on other sites
ozontour 0 Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 I think all Esprits are beautiful in gods eyes...lol let me tell you, mine is no oil painting underneath also. Hard for it to rust with all those custom fitted oil leaks it came with. Apparently they are standard and were not even offered as an option Justin "Laugh" and the world laughs with you - "Cry" and you just wet your face... Link to post Share on other sites
