I would like to put something together so all the Austin area Lotus owners/enthuziests can meet up here at the dealership say once a month like a saturday morning for coffee and breakfast, mabey even a short tech session. If anyone is interested shoot me a message or email.

I will also be sending out invites to the Grand Opening Galla on May 14th. If you aren't sure if I have your current contact info or if I haven't spoken to you recently please call me or send me an email. Thanks!

Come by and Check out the Jim Clark edition I have on the showroom :drool:

Jim Clark edition??? I need to see this... post pics!

 

[Charlie Lunsford]

Zygote I have the Type 25 Jim Clark posted with pics in the "cars for sale" forum, check it out and let me know. Scott, I met with Ryan of HCD yesterday and it looks as though we are going to try to get the Hill Country Drive guys to meet up here before the drives, I think its going to be exciting for everyone!

Charlie - I was planning to join HCD on the 16th - what are the details on the 14th?

Do you have a web-site up yet?
I saw the announcement on View Item : » Managed Content » Lotus

Good to hear from you Lou!! The website is being ironed out and should be up and running shortly. Our Aston and Bently sites are up (search John Eagle European). May 14th is our Grand Opening Galla. The way I understand it is the event should kick off around 4:30pm and go into the night. Dress is Austin Chic. We are expecting several High Profile special quests!!!! 9 restaraunts are catering the event and media will be present as well. All Lotus owners are welcome, come by and check it out, should be a blast!!!

The HCD drive is going to be a lot of fun and we are excited to be hooking up with Ryan and the guys for the future meets.

Does your dealership have a shop with Lotus certified mechanics? I'd be interested in the new Lotus upgrade supercharger as FVMC's is advertising. It's a whole lot closer from FW to Austin than Chi town.

Bob, we have 3 techs and a service manager. One of the techs will be specializing in Lotus and will be certified, he came over from Mercedes. Seems to be a great guy! We are excited to have him aboard.

Let us know when he's trained and you guys are ready to handle servicing Lotus cars Overseas Motors here in Dallas has permanently lost my business due to circumstances I'd rather not get into publicly (anyone can PM me for details, if curious) so I'm on the hunt for someone to handle my service intervals and any repairs/fixes that come up. I've got plenty of mates in Austin that I can visit so the extra mileage doesn't bother me.

 

[Charlie Lunsford]

They are doing all the finishing touches to the service department, should be fully up and running end of this week. We took a Lotus in yesterday for some work.
