DaKa Posted August 9, 2021 Report Share Posted August 9, 2021 I'd be suprised if that is legal left on the road like that, unless it has a window for the number plate showing at the rear and some sort of reflectors? Reading back my comment before I hit enter has just confirmed to me what an old moaner I've turned into 🙂. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold FFM jep Posted August 9, 2021 Gold FFM Report Share Posted August 9, 2021 No number plate showing or reflectors. It has been around the manor for a while like this, I am told. I am too polite to lift the cover but I sneaked a Speedline wheel and the back lights are sitting proud so I assume S2 or S2.2.

Popular Post Jack Stone Posted August 10, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 10, 2021 Great little clip from almost 40 years ago that's recently been posted on YT of a G Turbo racing a Kitty Hawk down the runway. Also good to finally hear PR legend Don McLauchlan speaking! 4 Quote But remember one thing: don't lose your head to a woman that'll spend your bread: Lotus Turbo Esprit (89-11); Lotus Esprit GT3 (12-14): Lotus Evora S (14-17); Lotus Esprit V8 SE "UK Last 15" (18-...)

set Posted August 13, 2021 Report Share Posted August 13, 2021 Looking really good. When you say ‘classic car club’, was it just you and the bloke with the Alfa? And is there always so little traffic? 😏 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gis Posted August 13, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 13, 2021 😀we were early at the carpark so it was a good opportunity for some photos Michael. About 15 cars I’d say. All makes, some younger, some older. We had a biker with a pillion rider who took photos on the road. Roads were not too busy on a Sunday morning with partial lockdown still in place. https://www.classiccarclubsg.com/ 6 Quote Ad initium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Number11 Posted August 13, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 13, 2021 (edited) Popped these new wheels on recently. They're flow formed racing alloys by Revolution, only recently developed and designed for competition so they're light and strong. They made them with S4s/V8 sizes, 8.5 x 17 and 10 x 18 and all the offsets and whatnot. Unfortunately they only came in black when I got them and they don't show up well for the camera but you get the idea.

Popular Post gvy Posted August 16, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 (edited) Giugiaro Lotus Esprits are fairly rare cars. and yet.... Friday there were suddenly two of us at the oldtimer meeting that takes place every 2nd Friday of the month in St Lievens Houtem.(Belgium east flanders) My S2.2 (88 copies built 1980, 1981) was accompanied by a red S3 (732 copies 1981-1987). A little later in the meeting we were able to park them side by side. I met the owner about 3 years ago . He bought an S2, with a lot of work. And since he had no spare time ( building a house) , he now bought himself an S3. It was good meeting him again and chatting cars. A rather extreme detomaso pantera stole the show , but it was loud....way to loud. Its V8 had just straight pipes to the back of the car Edited August 16, 2021 by gvy 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post nello Posted August 23, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 Apols if posted before but just stumbled on this one - Former owner of Mallory park and racer Chris Meek who sadly passed away a few years ago. Not sure if it was his but interesting to see nonetheless. I met him at the unveiling of the Chapman statue at the circuit in 1998. Quite a character it seems........... 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
