Popular Post Fridge Posted June 12, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Love this @stephenwhyte I am now on a quest, inspired by you and Eddie Berin to photograph my Esprit alongside other vehicles, old and new, and in the most mundane places on domestic duties. I think I'll start by taking garden waste to the community tip, and take a photo of it along side a dumper truck. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purso Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 Car looking in unbelievable shape Barry, testament to your maintenance and to a lesser degree your photography skills. Looks like it’s just rolled off the factory line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veilside Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 Barrie, did you have the white lettering pen out pre blast ? the Goodyear lettering looks very white, presuming it's not the stick on lettering ? Anyway it looks very nice. Steve T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazza 907 Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 Hi Steve Yes, tyre paint recently applied along with some very expensive wax!! Hope you and 004 are both well. Brooke, many thanks, good to see you're still around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Templar Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 @Bazza 907 that side profile is exquisite. Were you tempted for at least a split second to line up the Goodyear lettering at the top on the front wheel - like on the press shots? Unfortunately that would be me. 🥴 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post cweeden Posted June 19, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 Hi @Lotusfab, were you at Denbies in Dorking the other day? My wife and daughter were walking the dog and told me about a red/gold Lotus they had seen. It had Lotus written in big white letters across the back otherwise they wouldn't have known what it was apparently. That omission is quite disappointing since I've owned Esprits of one shape or another ever since I met my wife! 🤦♂️🤣 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
