Head for the weekend coffee on a Sunday and there's a fairly good chance you'll see a silver one floating about, dríven by some Maniac or other.......

True that but I don't count club or forum events - just chance encounters on the daily commute

Weekend coffee is on the want list - I'll have to lock it in about two weeks in advance methinks so that it can't be ambushed by other plans.

Took the train into the city for a training course today, saw this in the parking lot and had to park next to it ;) looks like it's lived a bit of a tough life, but it looks like it might see some track time too.

I would have thought something that conspicuous would have been seen around more often.

Me too. I actually have a feeling it might live at the train station and only see occasional use, safer than parking on the street I guess. Notice it's got a Lotus badge, and matching plates?

It's seen plenty of track time.
This is the car that we purchased a replacement engine for as the one in there at the moment is slowly dying of SNC syndrome.

Not being able to get away from this in corners on mt nebo in my Skyline is the reason I bought my NA6.

He will see more track time once the replacement engine is fitted.
He doesn't have a lotus.
Plates are a coincidence.

That's awesome, small world! I meant he has a lotus badge on the noise of the car, that's why I thought the plates weren't a coincidence.

And now for another spot, saw this one at QR on Sunday, looks to be turboed, great looking car! Anyone here?

is it turbo?
Looks very similar to a supercharged one for sale some time ago.

Supercharged. Owned by Nick. Love the rims on it.

ManiacLachy · Postby **ManiacLachy** » Thu Aug 14, 2014 2:40 pm

Ah OK, superchanged. Is a nice looking car at any rate!

Orange NA with after market tail lights on Eatons Crossing Rd yesterday about 14:30.

Nod and a wave at South Pine Rd intersection. The orange looks fantastic.
