I was a silly boy. I sold my S2 197 for a TVR T350c, loved the Tiv but missed the steering feel of the Lotus. Before every one starts I am 6ft4" tall so I was looking though the top 2" of the screen and convinced my self it was not right, but there is no point having a fast car if you don't feel like you can put it in to a corner the Lotus was so good at that on 888's.

Going back to a Lotus for the last time I want a keeper car now. My question is:

1) Is there any more room in a S1???
2) S1 or S2 which ones more collectable???
3) K Series or Toyota lump (not interested in in a S1 with engine replacement I like a original car.

I would love a Sprint.

Been looking at S2's I used to split jeans all the time catching them on the door latch posts britty funny. I really miss the feeling of true grip. The TVR power steering was the killer no feel at all. No Power Rack is the way FWD!!!

My old Exige did not have harnesses the next one will.

I had standard seats last time. Aslong as the seats are slotted to take them, a harness bars not hard to fit.
