Spotted these two on the club Lotus France stand yesterday, hopefully more to see today.

*the green one was definitely on its wheels, not it’s roof!

Saw a Yellow S2, UK reg (think it was a H 1970 plate) on the roads back towards Calais yesterday. Gave them a toot of the horn and a wave as our convoy sped past. - looked like they where having a good time.

The Le Mans livery on the S300 certainly gets enough attention, the car is pretty interesting as it was a ‘special order’ from the factory when new and shared a lot of engine parts with the race version of the time - runs with about 380bhp.
