Subject: [ELCC] Possible new member's car
  


Saturday I was approached by a young man who said that he was in the process of purchasing a Lotus Esprit and want to know if it was worth getting. He told me it was a 1981 Turbo, of course all the buzzers and lights went off in my mind, since Lotus sold no car in the USA between 1980 and 1983. So I asked him, “Is it a left hand drive?” He answered “Yes.” Now my mind was really racing. I told him that he has what is known as a ROW (rest of world) car, and that it might be an Essex. (Yes I know that the Essex was only available in 1980, but also knowing the way cars were registered back then, if it were sold in 1981 in the USA, it would have been titled as a 1981). He responded, “Why yes, it is an Essex, it has the word Essex all over.” I told him that he is about to buy one of the rarest Esprits in the USA. His name is Brian Slominski, he will be at Smarty Pants on Thursday, and attached are pictures of his car.
