tonyc 0 Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 I have only just seen this topic and it makes for interesting reading - so much enthusiasm from so far away from where the Esprit was born! Could one of you update the map for us observers from afar please? tonyc Link to post Share on other sites

tonyc 0 Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Alexander- I live near Dereham west of Norwich and my son who has the Esprit V8SE lives in Thetford south of the city. There looks to be a high proportion of Lotus owners in Norfolk, but I have no statistics to back it up. Good to see such support so far away where costs are so high! tonyc Link to post Share on other sites

tonyc 0 Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Alexander - thanks for the reply. There must be 15 -20 Esprits in Norfolk that feature on this forum. Most are in the AEG (Anglia Esprit Group). My son Paul bought his V8SE new from Stratton Motor Co in 2001. I trust you got your G car out there undamaged. tonyc Link to post Share on other sites

benjamincalleja 2 Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 I just got confirmation from CTS that the silver 300 sport rumored to have left the country in fact did not. The owner did for awhile. The car is in WA now and the owner is thrilled with it. Sucks...I want it now that Ben Allen greedily snatched up the silk red one. The man has two 300 sports!!!!

Clive59 113 Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Well, after looking for ages, finally became a Lotus owner, albeit not an Esprit like you all seem to be! Just a humble Elite, but hopefully lots of fun to be had. Beginnings of a Lotus stable I hope. Any other Elite owners out there? It is registered(Tas), but I have stuff to do in it before I can get it registered in NSW, mostly electrical (I hope!). Had a blast driving up from Hobart in up to 39deg heat in places, and the aircon in pieces in the boot! But overall it was a great run, with the exception of failed alternator, so an unscheduled pit stop in Albury. I am in the Sydney area( Blue Mountains ) Clive Link to post Share on other sites
Aussie kid 4 Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) Not sure if you are still updating. Geelong Victoria - just near the a Great Ocean Road racetrack.. Clive59 Hi mate just saw you add details as I was adding mine to the list. Welcome to Lotus ownership. I have been trawling through the Threads and Posts here, not a lot happening.. there appears to be a bit happending up your neck of the woods though. Enjoy the ride.

s4simon 153 Posted April 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 Oh Noes. Photobucket has changed the way it creates links, and for some reason I can't edit my original post to update the map link. Simon (94 S4) My Esprit will be for sale in late 2017 Link to post Share on other sites
patersoi 0 Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 Shame there is no more room in Sydney for my S1 to add to the list. Now it is a bit cooler and I am travelling less I would be keen to meet everyone and go for a gentle drive. Cheers Ian P Link to post Share on other sites
