A few of us over on SE1 have wandered off down memory lane.

Here are some of my very favourites from our archive...


The original Team Scottish Elises assembles at Hillend

Image


Fat Bob Fisics shows us the way to Espana

Image


Paul couldn't find a car wash

Image


"Shepherd to Lost Sheep, Shepherd to Lost Sheep..."

Image


Bonkers in Barcelona

Image


David and Goliath...or..."Road opening June 2015"

Image


Nightfall over Toledo

Image


L to R...Tony (grandfather of Stelvio trips), Robin, Jane, Lisa

Image


Representative behaviour from none other than...

Image


Heading into the Picos...but can you spot the missing car

Image


No Limits

Image


Danger, reservoir, no swimming...but several still did!

Image


Idyllic. Yet txts were arriving telling us that 9/11 had just started happening several thousand miles away...

Image


Homeward bound

Image


Clearly not up to the standard of Chris King's awesome pictorial account (http://www.chris-king.org.uk/Lotus/Stelvio2001/), but good enough to bring back the memories. Happy days.

excellent campbell. I was pestering robin on the recent french frolic trip that SE needs to do another stelvio type trip. I think he is slowly coming around to the idea :D

The front of Tuts car was actually blue at that stage :shock: :shock: :shock: :D

Another trip like that would be awesome.

Can not believe how well that Hotel fitted in with my nickname.

Would be great to go back there again, you really do have to see it to believe it, and as for the whole leg or shoulder of lamb each for dinner.............
