985 VPG - Lotus Seven S2

[Tony Hall]

I had this car from 1984 to 87, spent a lot of time on it. Green/yellow/alli bonnet, twin cam fitted etc. Sold it to a guy from Preston, Lancs., who was going to take it to Luxembourg. Often wondered what happened to it, anybody know? Sorry if this is starting off a trend.
Missed the car so much that I bought/built a Caterham in 1991. Still have that one but it is now for sale. See classifieds.

Hi Rae, is the car yours now or did you own it at one time? If you need any history on it or know its current whereabouts please let me know. I'll be glad to help. Still haven't sold my Caterham, no doubt when i do i'll miss it as much as the Lotus and wonder whats happening to it.

Hello Tony
No I dont own it but new it when BoB owned it!! Remember the wooden wing spacers he fitted !!! I have the Standard 10 LSD from the car when Bob owned it.
Do you rememeber me? I have a S2 and Elan and new you when you had the car,last time we met was probaly at the Lakes meeting a few years ago.

Hi Rae, think i've got you now. The old wooden wing spacers eh, now was that before or after Marcos came up with the wooden chassis? Seriously though,I spent a lot of time on that car to get rid of the bodges and that crazy wiring system the guy before Bob managed to concoct. It ended up with new ally all round, including bulkheads & dash, chassis stiffening, new wishbones i think, different wheels etc etc. Got a Tivvy now hence the Caterham is a bit redundant. Keep an eye out for a blue M plate Chimaera. Hope to see you around.

Tony.
