65/0167R

[jonclancy]

Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to introduce myself and my recently purchased Lotus.

0167R is a Series 2 Federal that I saw advertised on FB. I fortunately got to view the car while on a work trip and, finally, 0167R is back in Blighty.

I’m based near Swindon, and have been a long-time owner of a Westfield XI - currently looking after the XI forum at https://www.westfield-eleven.org/forum/

This is my first Lotus, and the small car, light-weight aspect of the Europa really appeals.  I’m hoping to get the car roadworthy initially. Any resto will be down the line when I have a little more time for cars rather than tiny kids!

Daft questions to follow - thank you all in advance for your patience.

Cheers

Jon

Congratulations on your new baby (and your "tiny kids"!)!!

I think we all tolerate "daft questions" around here pretty well so let the fly! There are some very knowledgeable S2 owners here who be glad to answer them! (Being a TC owner and having been humbled in my ignorance of the many ways the S2 and TCs differ, I'm not likely to be an answerer!  )

Why don't you post some pictures when you get a chance. The forum has a restriction on the size of attached files so quite often pictures have to be resized. Here is one method: https://www.lotuseuropa.org/LotusForum/index.php?topic=1379.0. Another is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_55eg00H-w.
