Setting off on a fresh journey this morning is the absolutely stunning Lotus Elise Cup 250 Final Version ‘Firefly’. Robert Ellerington and Jonathan Gorman are embarking on an extensive 5000 miles road trip throughout Europe with this exceptional car. Stay tuned for the upcoming article where we will unveil the story of their adventure. But for now, they are in need of your assistance.
Ever since it rolled out from the manufacturing plant on February 28, 2022, this final Elise Cup 250 has been racking up the miles. Shmee150 had the pleasure of driving the car for the initial 1000 miles, and subsequently, it underwent its 5000 mile maintenance.
As Rob and Jon commenced their remarkable journey across Europe this morning, they noticed that the tires were merely sporting 2 mm of tread. While Lotus Antwerp has kindly offered to install a new set, the duo is on the lookout for Yokohama A052s, which are reportedly a rare find in Europe. Therefore, if you happen to possess an additional set or are acquainted with someone who could assist the gentlemen, please reach out to them via @oneelevencars.
