  1. Cool, I will need to get myself a copy. I can also recommand this one that I own, all in French but lots of pictures :
  2. Saw it this morning. There was like 6 person in the theatre , including me and my wife. That's when a 70 year old woman /grandma arrived and decided to seat just in the seat in front of me... She probably thought the movie was about Ancient Greece or something. She looked shocked at the end . Other than that the film is stunning. Very impressice visually.
  3. Awesome; I think it looks even better without any side mirrors.
  4. Wow nice Labourguiner Morcilago. But I wonder, how come you got the names wrong on these other two? http://www.clubscuderia.co.uk/forum/showth...ello-from-Dubai http://uk-audis.net/forums/t/4748.aspx
  5. Absolutely hated everything that came after the very first one (well extended 2 and 3 were watchable) but this I've been long waiting for. No Alien in it but set in the same universe.
  6. Hello, I'm not sure if this is relevant to the thread or in your quest to determine if user Bentley M is legit or not but I'm almost certain that he is not a native English speaker. As a matter of fact I'm almost certain that he is of French speaking origins or uses French on a regular basis or is translating from French. Of course I could be wrong but something is telling me i could be right .... In this thread http://www.lambopower.com/forum/index.php?...c=58717&hl= post # 4, I noticed that he used TVA instead of VAT. TVA means Taxe sur la valeur ajoutée in French (VAT in English) which is a mistake only a French speaking person could have made, or as I said someone using French on a daily / regular basis.
  7. Lol. (I know this tv show, that's a French Tv show from the TNT. They did a race between a pro driver in a POS Peugeot 205 and a "I don't know how to drive' noob in a Gallardo once, and the POS 205 won.) Great stuff.
  8. It looks like a bad, slimmer mix of the Enzo and the upcoming 2013 Lotus Esprit designs.
  9. Yes I surely plan to. Never say never but this car will most likely never leave my ownership. That's Wyn Edwards' car in your link, I think he spent nearly £60K GBP restoring it.
  10. Ciao Albert, did you manage to snap any pictures of the Evora GTE? Grazie mille.
  11. Thank you all Haha, yeah me too at first. It only took me a day or so to get used to it though, you only need to learn(remember) to shift with your left hand, other than that there is no major difference and in a way you get a better control of your wheel (the car being wide) while overtaking on small roads . To be honest driving a RHD classic here adds to the fun of it. Thanks Allan, I think It was you that said that people were literally walking by/ignoring Ferraris to check on your TT Esprits. It's funny because a similar thing happened to me once. I had parked my car next to some local professional football (soccer) player Ferrari F430 Spider. People were completely ignoring it to check out the old Esprit. You should have seen the look on his face when he found out....priceless. Unlike some places where people have seen it all or at least act like it, the car draws a lot of attention over here, lots of thumbs up, people trying to identify what it is , other recognizing it from the Bond films, "ha AN Esprit"... then of course you get the what do you do for a living /how much does it cost thing once in a while.
  12. Wet Nelly, haha, I wish.... it didn't came with Barbara Bach (spell) either. Interior is a bit faded but all original. I want to keep the car as original as possible, some people hate the interior others love it, period perfect in any cases. Thanks again for the positive comments.
  13. Thanks, yes that's what you would call an early S1 as later versions already had some changes made like side mirrors and then they ditched gelcoat cars and started painting them. It was only after the S2 came out in 78/79 with even more modifications that they were being refered to as the S1, before that it was just a Lotus Esprit.
  14. Thanks guys, yes even if they are pocket change compared to Lambos, finding a good one took me a long time. Even went to Switzerland to see a white one that had a full engine resto, it looked good in pictures but turned out to be a complete turd bodywise in person. Wanted an early one as they are the purest Inmo.
