Yes, I spoke to Malcolm at the Silverstone Classic and he said that with the nights drawing in he had decided a Saturday afternoon would be more suitable.
The Workshop Address as usual is: The Old Dairy Barn, Lamer Lane, Wheathampstead, Herts. AL4 8RG.

I saw this in the Club Lotus newsletter. I'd have loved to have gone but it clashes with the Revival. Hopefully there'll be some 26Rs at Goodwood to photo

Hope to make it later in the afternoon, we are at the European Woodworking Exhibition near Braintree during most the day but it's only a small diversion on our way home to call in at Malcom's. Looks to be well worth a visit!

Went to check my Elan & found I had a flat tyre!!!

Pumped it up and it seems to hold air. Will check again in the morning & if necessary change to the spare.

Well where were you all?

You missed a chance to see see the very first Elan 260001 (Jim Clark's one).


I'll post some photos later.

I would have been embarrased to turn up in a Jaguar!

Bring on the pictures!

I'll start you off. One from my archive. :D

You would haveen directed to the Paddock, I expect, but there were lots of non-lotus cars and the usual De-Lorean was there too.

Hi Bill,

I was there and until I read this post again I didn't realise you had put your picture up.
