Re: EXCEL CELEBRATION for sale soon

Lotusian
It would be good to talk with you before any work is carried out on this car, I have no aversion to the price, but would expect all work to be carried out by a Lotus specialist as well as the paint issues to be sorted. As you know, top dollar prices require top dollar recommisioning

Re: Late Excel SE

Hi Rb Gosling I guess it’s just personal choice regarding the different variants, I feel the late cars are just that bit more accommodating, plus I love the later wheels and the proper (original) badges on the door pillars, I also like S2.2 Eclat with the Galv chassis and decent gearbox, like I say,...
