[muley]

Mike,<br><br>Good luck in NZ! We were lucky enough to live there from 1983 until 1992, and will probably half retire there -  one of my dreams is to drive an Elan there.<br><br>Which area are you moving to?<br><br>See you at Stoneleigh.<br><br>Jim B

[Monty]

Mark, don`t know if i can make it this sunday, depends if i can get a lift with dico, but think he`s busy that weekend. But would like to go  ;D<br><br>Mike, good luck on u`r quest, and taking u`r elan, thats great. must be costing u a small fortune  ::) see u at stoneleigh

[new2u]

Hi Guys<br><br>Live in the NW and just purchased 91 SE so would be good to meet up with all you old salts to here tales of woe and advise on where I should have put my money.<br><br>From the threads can't see what was finaly decided on a December meet but if there is one then I am up for it!<br><br>Simon

[Monty]

Another one in cheshire, what colour SE have u got?<br><br>There`s been no NW meet yet, But i think there`ll be a few of us going to the NORLOG meet on 5th December at Ladybarn in Milnrow. Look here:-<br><br>http://www.norlog.net/<br><br><br>

[mark29]

yes, hopefully there will be a few of us at the NORLOG meet. see you there...<br><br>51mon where abouts in cheshire are you based? what colour SE have you got?

[51mon]

Dear Monty and mkt29,  My Elan is a Red SE first registered in January 1991.  Quite a lot of work needs to be done to get it up to scratch but its not too bad.<br><br>My GZ is Grappenhall, South Warrington.  I plan to go to the the Stoneleigh show but will not take the car.<br><br>I am at present trying to source the hood seals and Andrew Neil seems as good as anyone on price.  They do however confirm that the LH intermediate seal (A100v0124F) is on back order by Hethel.  Worrying part here is that all the seals were manufactured by Standard Prioducts Canada Ltd which seems to have disapeared off the face of the earth.  Anyone got any ideas on an alternative source?

[Sy V]

The seals were made by Standard Cooper...who are still making them for Trim Technology Ltd.

[Monty]

Simon,<br><br>U`ll find us lot at stoneleigh just look for the plebs wearing the LEC gear lol!  ;D<br>U`ve got the same SE as me, and mine needs work too  :'(. Hopefully things will come good next year.<br>Will_B had a header seal for sale, but stef might of got in there. I got mine from SJ sportcars about £145  :-/<br>Hope u can get to the Norlog meet.

[Bobfrance]

Hi Folks,<br><br>I'm newbie to these hallowed boards.<br>I'm looking into buying an Elan (see thread http://www.lotuselancentral.com/cgi-bin ... 1101665623)<br><br>I was wondering if it would be okay if I was to come along to the NORLOG meet in Milnrow to pick your brains and meet like minded people?<br>I live in Littleborough so it's literally 5 minutes from my house.<br><br>I can bring either my Jag or my TVR so I'll be keeping it British - if not Lotus!

[TC]

The Norlog meets start at 12:30. <br><br>I have been up in Manchester this weekend and don't think I can make it to the Ladybarn next Sunday. <br><br>My next trip north will be 17th December I will be free if anyone fancies a get together that weekend.<br><br>Tony

[Monty]

Bob i replyed to u`r other post LOL, Come to the meet mate, hopefully MKT29 (mark) and New2u (craig) will turn up. But i won`t be in the Lotus (of road, having wishbones replaced). Cause Dico is taking his misses i`ll be going with my Bitch  ;D<br><br>Tony, shame u can`t make it, i don`t know about meeting up on the 17th as hopefully i`m well stuck in to Pinky lol Now that sounds naughty  :P

[Bobfrance]

Cheers for the warm welcome guys!<br><br>If someone could post up the time of the meet I'd be grateful.<br><br>I'm really looking forward to having a closer look at some Elans. <br><br>And if I'm really lucky (or cheeky), being taken for a spin in one. <br><br>See you all next week!<br>

[Monty]

The Norlog meets start at 12:30.

 ;D<br><br> ::)<br><br>I`m sure dico will take u for a spin, he likes to show of his BBR  8) Just to let u know this is our 1st NORLOG meet so don`t know how many go or how friendly they are  ::)  ;D<br><br>See u there,<br><br>Just look out for the Badge with the cat on  :)<br><br>

[Bobfrance]

Cheers for all the kind offers guys! <br><br>I'm now really looking forward to Sunday.<br>Just keeping my fingers crossed for good weather.<br><br>Of course if anyone want to have a ride in a Jag or a TVR I'll gladly reciprocate.
