Hello guys, I am nearly finished the restoration of my TVR so will be looking for a new toy in the summer.

Ive still got my heart set on an early 80's esprit turbo.

Ive found this forum, but not joined yet:

http://www.clublew.co.uk/join.html

Is this the best place to go?

Are there any specific things to look out for on this model - apart from the usual stuff when looking at a car this age?

Thanks

Chris

I'd recommend www.lotusespritworld.com as a good starting point.

Might be worth tracking down the Wheeler Dealers episode where they did an Esprit S3. It wasn't a turbo car but nonetheless fundamentally the same thing.

It's available on DVD or you can probably watch it on Youtube like this,
