Hi Bill, and another  :Welcome: and this time from the other side of the pond.

The motor has been upgraded to 1998 Honda Accura (160 HP). It's like a rocket when you hit 2nd gear.

Wow. Now that does sound like a great conversion and one that I've not heard of before.  I've see Elise conversions when the original K series was going through a bad patch, but never in a Europa.

I appreciate it's a brand new toy and so there's a steep learning curve, but when you get more familiar with it, I'd be interested in knowing how the conversion has been done. It'd make a great topic (please ?)

Hi Bill - another welcome from across the pond.
My story similar to yours, especially in terms of age, except I bought a Europa in pieces...  :headbanger:  :FUNNY:

Welcome to the forum, Bill. Your Lotus sounds awesome, and will look great in Olympic blue. Looking forward to photos. Cheers  :beerchug:

Do you have an ipad or apple phone?  If so, this website asks if you want to reduce the size of your photos.  That' what I use.  I think the max size is 1mb.

Can I respond directly to someone who responds to one of my posts on the forum or do I have to email them?

  Bill, I sent you a PM a day ago. I also sent you a text with my home email. You can do either.

If you click on the user name in a post, on the left of the message, it will take you to the users profile.

On the left of that screen will be a "Send PM" link. Clicking on this will allow you to send a Personal Message to just that Forum Member
