Right...was thinking dark blue with a silver stripe down middle.
Now thinking silver with blue stripe down middle and blue wheel arches and black Pro Race 1.2's.
Any other ideas.......????

He's leaving me to come up with ideas for the asthetical side of things.

I was wondering what a lotus 7 looked like. The guy I bought the Evo from has just bought one as a project with a new 2ltr 16v engine.

What a genuine Lotus 7????
Or a Caterham?
Theres naff all genuine lotus 7's about these days. Most are replicas like Caterhams, Westfields etc.
We are building a Birkin. Same as a Caterham but better engineered.

Yellow and green are historical Lotus colours.
My uncle has a Lotus 7, I forget which version but it is the one the purists frown upon because it is fibreglass.
He put a Duratec into that, albeit it is a 2.3 and it made a nats cock under 260 BHP on a base map. Just his exhaust system was £1k as a foreigner!
