Calm down :shock: its just a 1991 car returned to the factory by an owner under waranty which the developement department modified by mistake when they took the wrong car out of the car park.

Thats what I was told by a reliable source at the current owners place.

It is fab tho :-D

Your story is spot on Mike. That's exactly what happened.
Stevens was told that there was a Pacific Blue car in the car park that he could practice on/butcher and he used the wrong car.

The M200 was SOLD at Donington (where it had a price tag of £20k).

Interestingly the Etna concept was inside and borrowed by Lotus Club Holland for their stand.

Indeed. The Etna was looking mush better this year too rather than stuffed on the back of a trailer.

Lets hope we continue to see it at the shows.

Stef, that was the GM Elan concept version that was stuffed on that trailer for sale looking crumbly last year. The Etna is 10X more lovely!

Told you I have a poor memory...

What is this forum all about again? Is it cheese?
