Nice bit of kit. is he actually going to restore it, or is it just going to rot in silence in his garage? lol

ROT you say, there isnt much of it that can rot,

and unfortunally you cant see in the pic, but the engine bay has been restored, no expense spared, new alloy fuel tanks etc etc.

and he has the interior in the house all mint in alacanta etc etc. its just a long term project.

he said he has been to the lotus world meet. and has only ever saw two other S1's

kit on top looks 944 esque so maybe the 924 carrera which I believe had FG arches, as it's a kit though it could be anything lol

nope to the kit, keep trying.

and lee, he is lotus mad, we live close to the factory, so he has visited numerous times.

i doubt i will ever see it done, he doesnt have any plans to start it soon i dont think, but it is really nice.
