Does 1971 Lotus Europa wreck, currently holed up on drive minus many important bits, count for the prize if brought on trailer?

Hi Conway,
You win, you're the man. Someday all your Loti will be fixed and working and you can have your own show.

Happy New Year

ps See you at Coleford...probably in the Exige G11OOL

Hi John,
You WILL need to book the ferry as more snow is forecast and "Le Shuttle" stops......wrong snow or something.
Great British engineering or Wot

When are we going to meet up??? You cannot stay in Germany forever, dig a tunnel or build a glider.

My 1/5 Scale Ark is 90% finished, Spanners & Bolts are already lined up two by two.
Just waiting for the Paint to dry & the Flood.
Just trying to figure out how to get St. Peter sufficiently annoyed with me

But seriously, April 17-18 Malvern is presently in the Planning mode.
Errrm, don't tell the French Fishermen that

John

P.S. Shuttle is a big no no for me so long that there are crazy people with Bombs out there.
P.P.S. That's me being serious for once

Well I wouldn't say that but I fancy my chances are better swimming from a sinking Ferry with a Life Vest than being buried in a Tunnel under a few hundred feet of blown up Concrete.
You never can tell when or where those idiots with Bombs will strike next!

Unfortunately I've done more than my fair share of Flying in the recent past & I've often thought that every time flew that I was shortening the odds.
Maybe in future I will take a very big Brolly with me; it could work

In any case I'll no doubt be given my Wings after "the event"

Cheers
