Thank you 1964 S1!
I think you non-UK owners must have a greater appreciation for each other and be closer friends since I read that you often drive many hundreds and even thousands of miles just to get to a Lotus gathering. It is often the case here in the UK that you can see another Lotus on the road and not even be acknowledged, particularly the new breed of young Elise owners who sometimes do not not even seem to recognise a 20th century Lotus.
Many top Lotus people were there - Mike Kimberley, Hazel & Clive Chapman, Tony Shute (he was one of the 'Eli-ge' hot laps drivers), Malcolm Ricketts, and that's just the ones I recognised!
All the staff were very friendly & helpful which made it into a great day.
There were A LOT of Elises/Exiges in the car park. I didn't get chance to look around for Elans/+2s when it was FULL in the middle of the day. Matt, I did see your immaculate red car just before I left. A bit of a contrast with mine... Did you bring a car load? I bet your back (booster) seat passenger enjoyed it! How old is he/she?
Did the Spitfire flypast take place in the end (it was late and we were in & out of the factory & 'hot' laps after the time)?
