Katie Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Apologies for not being around for ages. Had a very bad crash in February, not in the Esprit, not my fault; huge van ploughed into the back of me whilst I was stationary. OUCH! And wrote my car off. Really struggling to generate much interest in driving or cars fullstop since this incident. It was pretty bad and has left me a bit scared of the road. Maybe this will pass? Anyway, today, the Esprit had its aerial 'liberated', AKA some piece of scum decided it was their right to pinch it. To be honest, neither of us had been aware these things unscrewed. Is there a generic Lotus aerial that fits a range of cars, that one of you could kindly recommend? Or do I have to source a specific one? Would be grateful for advice, thank you.

sailorbob Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 It's reputedly a mk1 Vauxhall Tigra aerial, the gasket for its base is definitely from one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneshot Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Yep Definitely a Vauxhall part - probably off more than just a Tigra as they are fairly generic across the range. Quote Dave - 2000 Sport 350 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanR Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 And VW. Ebay offers an assortment. There's a neat 9in flexi one from China too http://cgi.ebay.com.au/stubby-whip-antenna-VW-Jetta-Golf-Jetta-Polo-/180512101847?cmd=ViewItem&pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2a075c15d7 .

rogerch Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 Sorry to hear about your accident Katie. I had it happen to me, I can still feel uneasy stopped at traffic lights. But at least it wasn't the Esprit. I fitted an internal aerial to mine (pinch that if you can) Quote Life is like a sewer, what you get out of it, depends on what you put into it.
