It was Dave Howarth's for several years, then sold to Stephen S, who sold it a couple of years ago. Not sure who owns it now.
Post Factory RHD conversion Vin 6986. Grey int. Manual. A very nice car apart from its tendency to have more steering lock in one direction. But perhaps thats been sorted now. It looks very smart.

I'd recognise that road any day. I remember it well when I collected my Valeo headlights on the way back from the ports with it. I was there for hours talking about them...or was that listening? :lol:

According to this thread from 2010, Richard Overall. He only has 2 posts on here, so I don't know if he's still on this board or even got the car ...

I would guess Richard still own it. If it had another owner, I would have thought that Dave H would have mentioned it. It would be nice to see it out and about.

The steering rack really did need sorting out with a proper Lotus rack. That photo is REALLY old now!

Yes Martin,
it certainly used to have a bit more lock one way than the other. But as you say that was a few years ago now. Here are a couple of more old photo's showing the different style number plates and one on the Dunmurry test track.
