Hi all
had a good read through the forum and decided to register as it seems a nice helpful place.
I have been in love with classic Lotus cars for as long as i can remember, JPS toy racing cars, Lotus jacket and cap at about the age of 7!
the main culprit was my neighbour as a child has a pistachio green Europa. probably from when I could walk on my own i'd hear i start up in his garage of a Sunday (3 doors down) and run to the front to see him drive off on his Sunday afternoon spin. the sight and noise had me hooked from then on.
i always said I'd buy it off him one day when he'd finished with to but a year or so back when i was finally in a position to i found out he'd sold it
worst still its back on the market now for a lot more than he sold it for, looks like it headed down south when sold

anyway, I got over that and happened to stumble upon the plus 2 and fell in love with the shape.
more suits my needs with needing to have 2 whippets travel with me so have set my sights on one.
looking forward to asking questions and getting involved.
