Bet the two boys on the Discovery channel are a bit pissed that they didnt come across that unit ….
I want that one, Moneypenny.
Submerging a 77 Esprit in water was always an exercise in lunacy, given their electrical issues and irritating tendency to disintegrate in a light shower. Great to see this one has survived though.
I want that one but bank account says no.
Computer says naaaaaah
No thanks one crazy owner and it leaks :-)
Given the Lotus reputation it was probably dryer outside than in when submerged.
