Quick one which has more than likely been asked many a time on here...
How often should this happen on an S1 111S?
Based on time, as mileage not really a factor in this instance.
TIA

Initially was 6 but Lotus in their wisdom revised it and brought it down to 4

Thanks Mark - what would be a realistic all-in price for say Craig M to do a cambelt replacement on such a beast?

Don't ask Mark, his cambelt change has had a bit of scope creep (!). Best to call CMC for an accurate figure?

hahahahaha...
Yeah mine ended up full C service and belts, brake discs and pads, water pump, belt tensioner, alternator, thermostat and housing, fit tyres, geo, handbrake cable, clutch, and a gearbox
All good now though!
