Was wondering if anybody knows the silver/black E10R for sale on Collecting Cars?

Looks a lovely example with some great upgrades - brakes, Nitrons, fire extinguisher...etc

The only thing that worries me is an invoice/description of work carried out by FixAuto Hainault Ltd. Their website seems to indicate they are a crash-repair type of outfit.

Could be a completely innocent explanation - FixAuto could have some decent chassis geometry measurement systems, so it would be a good place to set-up your geo on a car such as a E10.

My instincts tell me this is a decent example of the E10 but I was wondering if anybody had any additional info. The VRN is AP66PHY - nothing on HPI to indicate anything untoward.

No worries. It did look a cracker of a E10R, though.

Don't know exactly why, but I am drawn to the Zenos range much more than anything else in the same genre.

I love all lightweight sports cars but can't help feeling the E10 really is the spiritual successor/modern day equivalent to the original Lotus 7.

No disrespect to other Lotus models, Atoms, Caterhams....etc. They are all great cars, but the mixture of materials used and clever/ingenious construction of the Zenos is very alluring.
