S2 on BaT

Hopefully BobW doesn't mind me posting a link to his car:  https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1970-lotus-europa-8/

It's a very nice, tidy, original other than paint car.  If I had a garage of my own I wouldn't hesitate to bid on it.

Very nice S2! The cracking in the finish of the dash is to be expected but it will need to be replaced at some point and that won't be fun. The only other issue I had was that the speedo bounced a fair amount. Hopefully, the cable just needs some love. Otherwise, it is a REALLY good example of a well maintained driver! Somebody will get a very nice S2!

Thanks! I didn't know we had a connection through my daughter!

Hey Bob,
It is great to see the early action your car is receiving.  Sad to see a long term owner in our club be selling such a beauty.  Good luck with the auction and I hope you stay part of the LCCBC.
