Thanks to Robert Verhey
Our friends in Tasmania get together most months at Sandy Bay to kick tyres and chat about life, Lotus and everything. Robert Verhey made it to this month’s meeting on Sunday October 6, and very kindly reached out with a few photos that you can enjoy below.
Ian is selling a Quicksilver 4.2.1 extractor exhaust manifold – for 2ZZ S2 Elise/Exige. It is used and there is a small leak at a primaries merge section that needs re-welding. Has been welded previously.
This is a lightweight unit of aircraft stainless steel. Equal length primaries 42mm, secondaries 47mm into 63.5mm. It suits n/a and supercharged cars. Adds torque in the mid-range without low range torque loss and gives extractor pulse sound. Sensational sound at high revs. Most effective performance-wise when combined with improved induction.
Wideband and EGT bungs have been added. Can be blanked off. Downpipe needs cat replacement.
In Sydney I recommend Westside Mufflers in Padstow for the required welding work.
Asking $400 – for pick up from Potts Point, Sydney.
Club member Dan has some spare Lotus Elan S1/2 soft top parts for sale. Read on for the details.
In my search for soft top parts I was lucky, so I ended up with some spares. I have a pair of cant rails (R/H needs some rework), a bow and soft top bar.
Asking $250. Located Queens Park for pick up.
My apologies before I begin for the silence last month – by the time the Great Cape Rally finished on 7 September and I got home and worked out which way was up, it was too late to call it early September still! But there’s a wrap from the rally here if you are into that sort of thing.
This 1972 Elan +2S 130 Coupe is up for sale by club member David. Read on for the details.
Club member Robert is seeking a windscreen to suit an Excel, Elite or Eclat for the project Excel that he is working on.
Any condition will be considered, new or used, if it will pass a registration inspection (ie. no cracks in driver’s line of vision).

On Saturday the 24th of August, Club Lotus Australia was honoured to host the fourth round of the 2024 CSCA supersprint series on Sydney Motorsport Park’s Gardner circuit. Scroll along and enjoy some photos and a wrap-up of the day.
So sorry everyone, we’re running a little late this month! As some of you will know, I have been up against time to get Gidget prepared for the Great Cape Rally, which starts on Wednesday, August 21st.
Russell has a collection of parts to suit a Lotus Elan available for sale. Please see below.
Nick has a series of parts to suit Elan, Elise and Exige. Read on for the details.
