I doff my cap Mr Smith, many lesser men would have bottled it trying to drive what is perilously close to a race car in those conditions! Also, before the Vauxhall-police get all adenoidal on me, the HS/HSR engine is actually a Vauxhall engine with a Lotus designed head. This was later developed into the engine you find in the Sunbeam, hence my noise comparison 😊 Cheers Jonny 🍻

With a hint of full-spec adenoidal.... The Lotus 907 engine was built on a Vauxhall iron block. The initial development used Vauxhall block castings machined differently to suit the prototype Lotus engines. Late in the development journey, they switched to their own alloy block. No for long enough, because they had lots of problems still to fix, and the early production units had lots of problems, as Jensen found out the hard way. The contract with Lotus was for supply, and did not require them to take responsibility for warranty issues. You can see where this is going... Later alloy Lotus blocks were a lot better. And then Vauxhall made a Vauxhall engine (edit - with a Vauxhall iron block) with Lotus heads etc. Adenoidal? Over to you

They had an eightish mile test route between 4 villages they used rather energetically use part of which involved a long straight...When they opened them up you could hear them from miles away. Superb. Also my last personally owned car I had was a OAP/Dead spec immaculate light green 1300L 38000 miles.
