Graeme,

What are the lappies like in Norfolk?

[ruadh08]

1. Dom
2. Robin (but only for SC elise, V6 exige out of my price range, but will still come for a night out with the turnips).
3. Scotty
4. Andy G (work permitting)
5. Neil
6. Keith
7. Me too Saj
8. Campbell (depends on timing and also only if SC Elise involved...V6 Exige would need sale of both kids and even then they'd not fetch enough )
9. Ali (spent this years budget already but consoled that 2-11 trade in might be a wee bit more than Scottys)
10. mark_h - been 'humming and hawing' about having a V6 in my life!
11. Gary - don't like the look of the V6 but I'm up for a Norfrolic.
12. Frank - anytime except December
13. Kelvin - on jury duty from the 7/11 but will throw a sickie if it's a long drawn out case as apparently very few cases last longer than 200 days (it says here in the notes) FFS
14. Malcolm (f**k the extension)
15. Mr Momo - to get on the new track with the SC Elise and do a recce for the Elan 50th Anniversary next year
16. Kenny

[Kelvin]

The new Elise S is charge cooled which is how it makes all that lovely torque. And apparently won't suffer from heat soak.

How do you know all that then, Mr Spock?

[GraemeLotus]

The new Elise S is charge cooled which is how it makes all that lovely torque. And apparently won't suffer from heat soak.

Indeed it is though - when I get 2 mins later I shall post a pic of said chargecooler from the Frankfurt stand, it's about 20 feet away as I type

some quick details - new 2ZR engine only revs to 7k so very different power delivery - but 250Nm peak torque, up 25%, and the torque at 6000rpm on the previous 2ZZ is now matched at 2000rpm on the new unit - rapid....and fewer emissions etc too. hopefully driving one in a couple o weeks..

Cool. (pun intended). Might have to sell a kidney ...

[kerryxeg]

I caught the end of a Frankfurt show review last night. I think it was Eurosport 1 or 2, so may be repeated. There were some nice shots of the Lotus stand, the exige in particular, and an interview with the boss.

Whilst you are looking Graeme, are the brake discs from a 240R the same as those on a standard S2K?

Certainly worth more than your liver I imagine

You are asking a SALESMAN?! C'mon! That's one for Craig at Murray. Or perhaps even www.deroure.com?
