Hi folks

I will be arranging a heritage factory tour around Lotus on the 11th June (a Monday) which will be the last factory tour that I arrange this season (may do some more next year, but this is it for this year). I have offered the tour to members of my regions, Mid-Essex, Cambs and a few others already and as I now have a few places left, I'm opening it up to the rest of the world. (This was originally a regional event for my regions only biggrin)

The cost of the tour is £69 pounds payable to me - in advance - and if you commit to go and are unable to, the payment is NON-REFUNDABLE - as I need to pay it all upfront out of my own wallet. The tour is about 2.5 hours in all and includes both the Lotus factory facilities, the heritage centre, the race bays and other areas.

I currently have 12 people and am willing to go up to 15.

The list currently is...

  • Me (11th June)
  • AndyG +1 (11th June or other, not 25th)
  • DonG (11th June)
  • SimonP
  • Brian (11th June)
  • MarkC + 1
  • JohnM
  • MikeA (11th June)
  • Matt + 1 (11th June)

As it has been advertised in the TVRCC forums for about a month, I will assume that most TVRCC members who wanted to put their names down have, so I'm happy to accept a few non-TVRCC members on a first come, first served basis. If TVRCC members who have not seen any details of this event want to come, please put your names down as well and I'll prioritise them for the remaining places as long as they put their names down ASAP.

I have enough to make the booking now, but it would be nice to have a few more, so if this tour appeals to you (which fellow members from a Lotus club I go to tell me is very, very good) and you have a few quid free, then go for it!

Thanks!

Alex

(PS - I will be booking in the next week or so, so names will not be accepted after that).

Apols - I now can't make this. Let me know if anyone wants to go in my place.

Hi Simon,

Sorry to hear that, mate.

So, we have one spare - paid for place - available tomorrow.

Very short notice, but as it is just going to go to waste otherwise...

Any takers?

A good day out yesterday. Not sure it was worth the full £69 quid myself, but we got about 4 hours of guided tours and a very knowledgeable guide.

A few pics from the second tour of the day at Lotus Classic which was great!














Thanks to everyone who came. Hope you enjoyed it!
