Choose your weapon!
Lol just kidding. Seriously, all Esprit really need to get crushed then set ablaze like since forever!
Also, chocolate Beetle

Give all your Esprits to me! Then give me lots of money so I can afford to have them actually run some of the time!

I’m curious as to why there is a lift right next to the “Beetle”.

All Esprits should be crushed and burned? Please elaborate. In the meantime, you can eat a dick.

Instead of crushing and burning the Esprits, give them all to me.

Those Beetle wheels are ugly as sin.

Those are aftermarket rims on the beetle right?

It’s not the money sometimes with these things. I mentioned to TFitch one day recently that a particular Esprit honestly made me rethink my career. Seems to have always been the case with these both as a tech and in parts

GRAY & YELLOW POLE!

We are all free to be fans of any vehicle :]
For me personally having to deal with these to make a living, the most common feeling I get woth these is mass amounts of dread and career ending thoughts.
They drive and look good indeed for sure

A quick little lift to help the make ready guys clean the cars quickly and thoroughly. Final touch up lift basically

Could you please take them, that would be sooooo rad
Faaaaaar away from here
![]() 02/09/2017 at 08:51 |

How bad could it actually be to daily an Esprit.
I’ll gladly perform this experiment if someone wants to loan me one.

Maryland is far enough, send Esprits plz
![]() 02/09/2017 at 08:52 |

Lol oh yeah. Didn’t even know that was there. Dude these cars drive surprisingly good. I would have never guessed

Beetle on 918 wheels? I can dig it.

RIP the poor soul of the tech that has to deal with potentially rusty Espr..... oh lord above

Esprit is the only Lotus that shouldn’t be crushed
![]() 02/09/2017 at 08:56 |

Awesome! I want one of those.
![]() 02/09/2017 at 08:57 |

At least 3 dudes here do. Excellent cars from what they say those times of the year when they have the car over them being here. Those dudes are seriously some rad peeps
![]() 02/09/2017 at 08:57 |

They have Porsche center caps. Maybe good 918 replicas?
![]() 02/09/2017 at 08:58 |

I’ll gladly take some Esprits as well. Pennsylvania should be far enough, and PA will probably kill Esprits better than Patagonia.

I thing the 918 spyder concept had these right?
![]() 02/09/2017 at 08:58 |

Some like them, some hate them lol. I don’t mind, they seem sort of rad!
![]() 02/09/2017 at 08:59 |

More and more of them are getting painted yellow here for obvious reasons. Bumper repair jobs get expensive quick.
Also... “pole” uh huh huh huh

Gib 911, but with less terrible wheels.

Not enough old Toyotas, old Volvo, and W210s to be our parking lol :]
Our employee lot is basically legendary tanks only

Those wheels are a huge hit and miss with people. Equal amounts of “niiiice” and “groooooss”. Interesting....

There is absolutely nothing wrong and everything correct about that.

That’s the number designation for the lotus.

lol we don’t use chassis ID for Lotus, Volvo or Aston. At Mercedes we do often.

Or as the guys in England say when we have to call them, “Low-Us”

Woof
That coffee colored Carrera is rad!
![]() 02/09/2017 at 10:29 |

It did, actually (good memory)!
For some reason, I like them more on the 918 than the
911
Beetle.

I think the one you have there might be a V8, I was thinking of the turbo 4 that had the overboost to >300 HP. I had a friend in Napa who had one, it was so damn cool. I wanted to drive it but the seat was bolted down and he was 6' and I am 6' 4" so it would never work. He then imported one of the first Elan’s with the supercharged toyota motors and tracked it at Sonoma.

epic cars indeed. Drive and look very good
![]() 02/09/2017 at 14:35 |

THEN WHY WOULD YOU CRUSH THEM?! Or are you reverse psycology-ing them so the price goes down? Cause 10/10 would take over an Elise.
![]() 02/09/2017 at 14:45 |
|
Because I want to destroy them all and burn then reburn the ashes :]
No owner or tech should have to suffer dealing with them. Enough!
Even if you have the cash, poor tech/mechanic that has to do anything on these. RIP their soul :’(

Hmm.... You sound like TFRITCH talking about the 928

Though I would prefer a broken Esprit to my broken 928
![]() 02/09/2017 at 15:34 |
|
no..... sooooo much no
![]() 02/09/2017 at 16:08 |

Yes! but then again I have a thing for British cars. And there is a higher chance the broken Esprit is a manual over my auto 928.
