Family trip to norfolk planned this summer and I was planning a trip for me and the lad to the lotus factory +/- their F1 heritage museum. We have previously toured the Morgan factory which was really good and a bargain at only a tenner a head at the time. The contrast to something a bit more modern would be interesting.

Whilst browsing the lotus site i note that track experiences are also available, I cant really justify both but now conflicted - track or factory tour??

Anyone done either or both? Any views?

Thanks for the reply, from what i can see on the lotus website, the heritage tour is an addition onto a factory tour,

I was rather hoping this thread would survive in general gassing but it seems mods thought otherwise….

Booking direct with classic team lotus is £55. Saturdays only though.
thanks for the steer on that - hadnt seen the classic team lotus option - sounds good, I'm probably more interested in the classic workshop than the new factory, although my lad is an engineering student and might be more interested in the factory.
We did the Morgan factory when he was about 7 - his face was a picture when he saw the morgan production line, including hammers wood bending and tin snips - he had only seen car factories on the discovery channel before.
