- just caught up with the latest episode of car SOS which featured a Lotus Esprit S1 -

Apart from the usual nonsense bits (false time jeopardy, blagging parts, etc.), it was a really detailed, body off re-build.

What was really fascinating was the electronic dash that they replaced the original with.The guy who makes them (!) has been supplying a simpler version for the Lotus Elise S1 for a while now.

Check out this (short) link to the one he came up with for the Esprit -

Apparently, the technology means he could make a version for any car - classic or otherwise.

Like it (or not) , it is impressive stuff from what looks like a 'man in a shed' thumbs
