What am I looking at or am I being stupid?

I think Colin is referring to the way the car doesn't need axle stands and would quite happily sit on that jack without there ever being a risk of it falling off



(or perhaps the fact the car be jacked up on one side with just one jacking point (which I'm pretty sure is also the case with the most rearward of the two front jacking points on the S2000....)

Prelude, ITR, and yes, the S2000 all have the trait of jacking up on one jacking point

You forgot the NSX and the Legend. Don't need a gym subscription with the latter!

Best one was a puncture on a Citroen; you'd set the suspension to high, stick something under it near the offending wheel & drop it to low. The wheel would stay in the air and the jack under the bonnet!

Wow I never knew the s did that. I always did it from the back point on axel stands.

Sure, ask away.

I am using Murrays yes, who are excellent - highly recommended. Did you buy from them or will you be using them for work?

I frequent "thelotusforums" rather than SELOC, as there didn't seem to be as much on the latter for Evoras last time I looked over there.

Both Eaun, bought the car from them and they're pretty local for any issues as the car will be kept in Scotland. Had a long talk with Duncan on Saturday when I bought the car and he left me confident in the dealership, plus he gave me an excellent trade in price which didn't hurt. Can't wait to pick it up Saturday.

Enjoy :-)

Ikobo,

When d'you collect this plastic f'er?

I wanna know how you get on with it!

(Funny how Lotus has that effect - maybe because I'm secretly a Cheshunt peasant)

Two sleeps to go Nick, pick up Saturday afternoon. Expect initial impressions in the evening.
