		Hi all,
After getting my new house just over a year ago I now have broadband and a phone line fitted...
I trust everyone is fine and I hope to see ya all very soon.
As for vin569, she`s my everyday car at the moment as I sold my red Esprit and bought  barn find Yellow 1981 esprit for 1100 pounds. the interior has been removed, cleaned and the seats were leathered in black and they added the lotus logo on the backrest. the whole car will be re-sprayed white next year! (well, i am a J Bond fan!).
my email address is still 
vin569@yahoo.com
all the best to ya all
