When I come down tomorrow please can you hide that Lotus......I do not want any temptation! Easter would never forgive me!

I still think we should have a driving session at Lotus, to taste the Elise and Evora...

    Yes, Yes, Yes Finally shoulder felt good enough to drive. I dont care if it was on the freeway in early peak hour, i did it. A little tender by the time I arrived at work, after all it was 26Km and that is at least 260 gear changes . Never mind it will get better in time for me to drive home. I will probably cop an earful from  but it will have been worth it

On a cold and blistery day here in Florida, but sufficient for Morgan jaunts, I finally found the rear end clank that plagued my runs in the Plus 8 of late. The tubular shock tower is both bolted and welded (belt and suspenders?) to the angle iron cross member that sits at the top of the shock hoop. The passenger side weld was broken and the bolt loose. I tightened the bolt to within an inch of its life. I suspect the weld should be re done. Any similar experiences or thoughts?
Cheers,
Mark

Wet and windy drive down the M5 to Williams today. The trip tested my new windscreen pillar trims out....no more popping out of the side screens! Just need to get the single drip from the header rail sorted!
My wallet stayed firmly in my pocket even if my taxi drivers didn't (you know who you are!) and in spite of seeing and hearing the rather impressive audio set up Williams have just fitted to a customers Roadster. Nice to see a fellow TMers car there also being fitted with something similar.

......it was only a dash clock, nothing too expensive, this time.
The audio system sounded great.
Nice friendly dealership.
