Hi from the proud new owner of a Series 1 , Aero 8

I am in the North East (Newcastle) and have previously owned a Lotus Elise S1,111S for the last 14 years - so am pretty used to TADTS...!
Please be patient with some of the (very) basic queries I will no doubt be asking in the near future.I was lucky enough to have the official workshop manual for the Lotus so spanner'ing was made a lot easier.I have yet to find much technical info. in written form (apart from this forum, obviously!) and don't even have the handbook for my car yet (it should be on the way to me shortly).
If anyone can point me in the direction of any technical info. , that would be much appreciated...
Many thanks
