Chris Amey at Westover Sprots Cars has arranged a Lotus Factory Visit For the BoLOC's.

A large proportion of the BoLOC's are customers of Westovers and Chris's and he has very generously set this up as a "thankyou" for our custom.

Westover have been an integral part of the club and though it is unwritten, being part of the BoLOC's has guarenteed that the best service is even better and this trip is just the icing on the cake.

Just1 and I will be arranging this for Chris so direct any mail to us. The visit is on Wednesday 28th April and our tour of the factory will be in the morning.

Here is the hard part. There are 12 places, Chris (or Ben) have to escourt us on the tour so effectivly there are 9 places left (Me, Just1 and Chris) You must fit 2 criteria to be eligable,
1) be a BoLOC
2) be a Westover Customer

Here are some early thankyou's. Thanks Chris (and Ben) for setting this up and for giving up you valuable time to babysit us BoLOC's for this visit. And a huge "THANKS" to just1 for harassing Chris and helping set this up.

Hi - Chris mentioned this when I signed off the spec of my Exige S last weekend - Please count me in as 100% definite + As I pick my car up in mid April I can't think of a better way to run it in than a trip to the factory!

Count me in if there is a space... and as my car is booked in on Monday at Westovers I just scrape in under both of the qualifications!

Is the plan to drive up early Wed morning or Tues night, hotel, food, beers, etc... - I think the latter sounds good fun!

Keeping up wont be the problem, keeping warm will be. I'll be the only one with his roof off again no doubt.

Of course. The only time the roof is on, is if it is raining hard , or the roof itself is already wet. Snow dont count
