That is a Lee Mitchell edition that was made for track action, ended up going to Scotland to be ran by the Fee Kindness team many years ago.
I believe that one was in the low 20's of the production run.

"J18" is probably the rarest of ALL the LM editions, most people thought that the abovr car was a myth (Many people still do!) but as you can see it HAS seen the light of day at least once in the last three years and it's an amazing car.
Nobody truely knows what's happened to it now or it's whereabouts, some say that it's the car you see in the pics of a Corsa bay with the Louts Carlton lump in, other say that it's owner and Lee are at loggerheads as to what to do with it next - Apparently Lee wants to preserve it (in his musuem (garage)) as it's such low mileage and has had very little use, where as the owner is being very cloak-and-dagger about it and his plans for it.
Maybe one day it'll re-emerge as a Lotus Carlton engined monster, maybe it'll stay in hiding, who truely knows.......

:eek: :eek: :eek:

Yeah Ste those ones, A few things that point to it being J18, obviously the colour, the coded mirrors, the bucket seats and harnesses, the fact that J18 hasn't been seen for ages, Depo headlights, half a dashboard - too many co-incidences imo

Has to be J18 doesn't it?

if it is this j18, (was m reg tho, but they never made j-reg corsa so could be a private plate that was taken off), is it worth saving? looked alot worse for wear than the one in the pic

will look for the plaque, although am sure it wasn't there, would it be mounted anywhere else?

Have you seen the underside of the C36GET corsa? Its got more chassis strengthening plates/bars than the Dalbach Golf lol

It was at SantaPod earlier this year but aborted a run. It threw a tyre off a wheel :o
Those 15" wheels and tyres dont take the much hp easily lol

i thought it had lotus carlton wheels as well?

saw it in a mag too! but never seen a vid or it at a show

lol @ this whole thread

lol i thought id logged into corsa sport then lol
