Merry Christmas!18th December '06  Just in a 1964/65 round tube Ginetta G4 restoration project.  In fact so fresh in there aren't any pics yet but because it's getting near Christmas Spadge has a special offer for the lucky buyer.

29th November '06  We've just group emailed a newsletter consisting of the entries for the 27th and 5th below.  The bad news is your webmaster had a hard disk crash some six weeks ago and though we wereClip from the new Dave Randall race vid - to see People Spinning and flags ... click here backed up you always loose something, in this case it was the newsletter list.  We did recover an out of date list but if your surname comes after L in the alphabet or you signed up after February this year it's likely you aren't on it.  So if you haven't received our Lotus Élan +2 newsletter we're afraid you'll have to sign up again ... but then a small price to pay to know what's going on!

and yes, there is another Dave Randall race vid on the way.

Lotus Élan +227th November '06  We've always maintained that the Lotus Élan +2 is one of  the few plus twos that makes a practical classic and is still a sports car and the +2 we now have for sale is a very practical classic.
Dave Randall and the Championship Cup5th November '06  Here in rural Suffolk communications become more difficult as winter sets in but the wires are being  fairly burnt up on the bulletin board.  That's where you can read how star of People Spinning and flags ... Dave Randall won this year's Road Sports Championship.  (And we hear there's another video on the way.)
Spadge's Ginetta G4 to be collected3rd October '06  Spadge has acquired a Ginetta G4 which he has to drive back from Norway!

Spadge, Elva and Chris at Oulton Park

11th September '06  Chris Dady qualified for the Equipe GTS race at Oulton Park Saturday but the antique fan belt on the newly acquired Elva caused a pushrod to jam (work that one out) during Spadge's qualification.  Problem fixed and Chris did twenty race minutes getting used to the car but obviously losing oil from the antique rocker cover gasket that they hadn't been able to replace.  Spadge took over and throwing the car sideways around the "carousel" on the first lap the oil light came on!  So that was that, no major harm done and they're both looking forward to Mallory Park in October.

8th September '06  The red Ginetta G21 has sold and tomorrow Spadge is co-driving the Elva Courier Coupe with Chris Dady at Oulton Park.
8th June '06  Too late!  The partially restored Ginetta G21 and the yellow Ginetta G15 are  SOLD
Andy Hyde's Ginetta G2722nd April '06  Fos' Midget is sold.  The maroon Ginetta G15 is sold.  Lots of  books for sale on the bulletin board plus lots of news including a price on the Lenham; and Andy Hyde's G27 is painted, trimmed, primped, tweaked and looking really rather good.
9th February '06  We have a genuine round tube Ginetta G4 for sale on commission.

Lenham GT19th January '06  Exciting news! The only road registered Lenham GT has turned up and is for sale.  It still has it's Lotus Twin Cam engine and unlike some of the other Lenham GTs out there is 100% genuine. This would make an excellent historic sports race car, as DavidK reg Ginetta G15 Methley is currently proving at a circuit near you!  Anyone interested should drop us an email ...

... and here's that pic of the Ginetta G15 we promised.

13th January '06  Happy New Year!  We have for sale a K reg Ginetta G15 875 Sport, no sunroof, red, two owners from new and garaged for the last 13 years.  The engine is not seized and it's a totally unmolested and original complete car except it's been repainted red; originally it was orange.  In need of re-commissioning there are lots of useful spares though nothing too sexy.  No photos as yet but at £1200 we expect this to sell before we collect the car. You can collect it from York yourself or we'll deliver anywhere in UK for £200.
