The red one belongs to the new owner/member that's recently posted about his car.

The maroon coloured one is also still in the UK.
Sudesh,

Many thanks. Has it had a retrim ?

In my pics the dashboard is red alcantra whereas on the Top Gear site where Carlo had it for sale it has a black/grey dashboard ?

Regards

Tim
Here are a couple of pics of the re trimmed interior

Tim - upon closer inspection of your pic, yes this is P30LAM (reversing camera on rear spoiler gives it away). It has indeed had a retrim, which was done by Carlo at Top Gear Specialist Cars. The car is now in London. I'll be taking it to Silverstone for the Classic on 26th July.
Hi there,

Many thanks, glad its your car always nice to see them staying in the UK. Look forward to seeing it at Silverstone.

Might have some more pics in the photo library, will have a look later today and post them if I have.

Did you have any luck with the Jota kit?

Nice to see some new photos of the car.
I had one earmarked for it, but decided against it as standard is much more useable whilst the Jota kit offeres relatively very little road performance gain

Jacon Barker, that's a name I've not heard in ages. I recall he worked for Lamborghini London many years ago. Is he still in the trade?

First SE30 I saw, was in AFN Lamborghini in London, it was in 1995, and the car was white and brand new. Have a photo of it somewhere.

Hi there,

This is the original thread, my pics are no longer on the server I used to use so will have to try and locate them.

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

In the meantime read through the thread as there is a bit of history about the car which may help.

Regards

Tim

Beautiful. Do you know which number out of 150 this car is? Is this the ex-Saywell car or another one?

Sudesh, do you remember that some time ago, there were thoughts that there was another (3rd) Jota in the UK? I was wodering if anyone had seen the plaque number. I think this may be the car that was for sale about a year ago with the dark grey wheels.

I don't recall the plaque numbers SAB, these pics aren't mine.

The one with grey wheels was at Vincent Knights I believe, and yes, I think it's the same car

Are the Jotas street legal in the UK? I assume they must be but not 100% sure.

Hi there,

Ok found a couple more pics. These were taken at Supercar Sunday held at The Heritage Motor Centre in Gaydon 18/06/06

Hope you like them, you can sort of see the red/pink interior in the first pic.

The driver of the SE30 was the guy in the matching red, pink and white shirt behind the car.
