Santa is almost here in the USA. The elves assured me that everything would be here on time but sadly one item is late. The wrapping department (myself) notified me that my wife's gifts were done and would soon be under the tree. The first wave of family will arrive in the morning.

It is a big tree so many Lotus items can fit under it.

Merry Christmas to all.

Youse Aberdonians are deid romantic. Did you pay for the fitting, balance and new valves ? Or is Maggie going to have to pay for that herself :burnout:

Looking forward to getting Elan No3 (Red, White and now a Yellow one) on the road in 2019, but slowly of course after my 6 points (and a bl**dy big fine) for doing 86 on a motorway, of which i'm still smarting.

Car still at friends being chipped and sorted :D

Nowt arrived for the Elan...... but I did get a rather nice bottle of malt to sip whilst perusing the 'for sale' items, so there may yet be something for the car.

Don't forget to buy some centre caps too. And get some purple piping round those seats :poke:

PS that Palacio purple is just a bit sparkly/metallic looking. Was it the ICI or DuPont spray you used :wink:

The colour is a bit shiny isn’t it? It’s already got centre caps though and the real one doesn’t even have purple piping.
And I actually do have nail varnish in the correct colour!

Do I need to get Pacific blue nail varnish, not sure it's really my colour, though maybe it would hide the dirty engine oil that usually surrounds my nails!?

Or I could use it for stone chips, perhaps!
