Garage for all repairs and upgrades

Postby Jean-Paul » Tue 22.09.2015, 15:31

Hi, I'm in the final stages (I say final but the list is never ending) of doing a nut and bolt restoration of my lotus élan turbo se.
Just thought I'd post a few details of the garage thats done all the work. In case anyone is looking to do similar work. I'm a little biased as its my father in laws place but needless to say they've done all work on my car so have experience and know where to get some hard to get bits from.
Its currently on the ramps and I invite anyone to come down to have a nosey as I'm dead chuft with the work they've done. Especially the parts you don't see once off the ramps.

Rotherham Motor Company
Taylor Lane
Parkgate
Rotherham
S62 6EE
01709528972

I'll upload some pics too, but to outline some of works and parts they've done:
[list=]full chasis blasted and powder coated
all new wishbones front and back. Then shot blasted and powder coated (as galvanised parts not great and didn't match rest)
fully adjustable suspension and dampers with uprated springs
new radiator
new hood and new seals
full respray - parts stripped and removed and then reassembled
new full stainless steel performance exhaust - faster flow
new front lip
new headlight motor fix
new window motors
new tyres
alloys straightened - need refurb - job still to be done
vallet
electrics sorted including a few intermittent issues
8.5mm ht magnacore leads
brake hoses bespoke made to follow wishbones
referred front discs and callipers
all new back discs and callipers - non lotus - that work
everest chip - done by elanscan - when owned by Enzo
Numberplate back glass sealed
under body trim repair and paint
vinyl number plate to nose and holes where old plate filled and painted as part of full respray
front windscreen removed and resealed
new matts
serviced and MOT'd[/list]
and lots more I'm sure.

On list for next round of works is LSD but taking back to Monaco for another year or two before that next expense. I'm planning on taking it back to Monaco late October so until then it'll be in garage.

Please feel to call Steve direct or message me if you want a quote or more info on any work done.
