Change of car

Tell us about any of your non-Land Rover projects here. These may be military or non-military, motorbikes, cars, lorries, planes etc. It's interesting to see what others have in their collections and what they are working on besides their Land Rover(s).

Change of car

Post by StuWright » Tue Jun 04, 2024 2:02 am

My daily for the last 6 years has been my super reliable Audi RS3 saloon which I decided to sell. It was still driving like new but I needed a change and apart from the Lwt it’s the longer I’ve ever kept a car or motor bike.

I decided to buy a Lotus Emira with a manual gearbox, hydraulic steering and a 3.5 superchargers V6 engine. So far I love it although it’s the polar opposite of my Lwt.

According to my wife I already had that when I bought a Lwt that was falling to bits. 😆

That's not a crisis mate. It's a calling.
