I followed Man of Steel over here from Lotustalk.com.  I never knew there was a Lotus slanted club in the Carolinas.  Anyway, there are a couple of British car shows coming up in October down in SC.  I didn't see the Charleston show posted, so I'll put something in the events section.  I've owned the two shown below.  A 1995 Esprit S4s and a 2005 Elise.  The Esprit has a chip and custom straightpipe exhaust.  The Elise is fairly stock with only some cosmetic stuff and a Von Hep pipe/ panel delete.  I'm thinking about FI when the warranty is up next month.

Welcome to the forum John.  After reading about the woes of the other Esprit drivers, I see why you have an Elise too!  Grin

Welcome aboard! Ignore Burple - he's just too old to appreciate a true high performance car like the Esprit Smiley


I love it out there in Charleston. We've been talking about doing another trip out there this fall.

I used to sublimate my enthusiasm for cars in the interest of fiscal conservatism and practicality.

The Elise guys here have turbo envy.
