AD07's are in a different class from the RE040's


It's a no brainer - which is why all new lotus come with AD07 now instead of RE040's
S2 Elise (cobalt blue with stripes) - toy spec
Caterham 7 - hillclimb spec
Yamaha Thundercat - 2 wheeled toy spec

Agree re the AD07's. Price sounds about right-ish without checking. They are pretty equally priced everywhere and only Lotus or specialist places supply them so get them from MMC as you get the SE 10% discount on them. :thumbsup
