Interested to note that the orientation and spacing of the stickers is completely different from that on my car. Clearly Lotus staff were told to use their initiative in deciding where to place them

Or it could be just another of those little S2 improvements.
And I see from Alan Head's gearbox tips that M100 TWO has four of them (and a lot of green arrows), none of which are where they stickers on mine are.

Confused from Innerleithen

You're kidding! You think they would look? Or pay any attention if they saw it? I don't take my car there, and I always supply my mechanic with the "jacking points" diagram from the manual.

I know the feeling, Clemo. Mine’s been up on a ramp since 1st October. All stripped, powder coating done, brakes replaced (anyone need a pair of rear calipers?), but awaiting some key bits from SJs to get it back on the road

Hope yours is back soon.

Simon_Buk and tb10: your jacking stickers posted today.
As far as I know, that completes all outstanding orders (except for one G Smith

). Please PM me if you were expecting something and haven't received it.
I still have a few 'No Jacking' stickers left over if anyone's interested. First come, first served.

Sorry Jonathan, I caught Oscar's bug and was wiped out for a couple of days. We're now on a shuggy boat in the Bay of Biscay... I'll catch up with you in December.

No worries Geoff. I imagine the Bay of B is just the place to convalesce

They’ll be here waiting for you in December
