I didn't fit the kit, and don't have the GSi bodykit/don't want to source one to turn it back to an original. It's quick, gets noticed, reliable...what more do you want from a late teenage car? In reality, even the 'best' replicas out there show some small signs of being a replica...believe me, I know as well as you.

On the subject theres a blinder on eBay at the moment £3k reserve:

From the outside its perfect.. Only give away would be no AP 4pots. 
Interior isnt perfect but its bloody good! Seats + Doorcards are a retrim job and not quite right, wrong clocks + gear stick, no dash plaque..

As would be expected, this Carlton is not perfect on the exterior, but does turn heads wherever you go and people regularly ask if it’s a ‘real’ Lotus Carlton!
If I had the time to sort out the minor imperfections, I would do them, but due to work, spare time is in very short supply!
FPMSL!
