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!

Nice looking Europas. Cool Sport 300, too.
The Twin Cam plays the symphony whilst my right foot conducts the orchestra. At 3800 rpm the Mad Pipe Organ joins in.

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.
