Hi Alan. Wow! I assumed that the pic was in fact Mike's car (with the under grille) but if Ross's pic is Mike's car, then my first pic must have been the original. I wasn't aware it was the same car in the Goodwood car park, despite the lower grille.

I knew Mike was building a replica 100S and assumed (wrongly it seems) that at the Ellerslie show, that was his and must therefore have been a replica.

I was talking to John Holmes from TACCOC (shown in that first pic!) recently and mentioned to him that it is so difficult these days to accurately annotate photographs, as you see a car in the street pass you by, you snap a pic, then you can never tell whether it was a Westfield Eleven or a genuine Lotus. John's comment was that the more Lotus badges, the less chance of it being genuine...

Thanks Alan for that. Now I have to shift the pic from my 'replicas, recreations and specials' category and into Austin Healey.
