Hi Thiva,

as i will need about 2,5h to Walshoutem, I'am thinking about traveling to Belgium on Saturday already. Can you recommend any B&B with save parking around the starting point?

Regards,
Matthias

Hi Matthias,

If you're looking for a B&B in an old typical farm I can recommend you B&B Kamerijck. This is very rural and you can park inside the farm. https://www.lotus-forum.de/www.kamerijck.be
If you like to stay in the city I can recommend you hotel Stayen. https://www.lotus-forum.de/www.hotelstayen.com Parking should be safe there too.
Or have a look at Booking.com and don't hesitate to contact me if you need help.

The weekend LTL takes place seems to be a very busy weekend for the hotels in the region.

Kind regards
Thierry

Hi everybody,

The following promo on groupon might be of interest to people who are
looking for a hotel room before or after LTL2015. Hostellerie Aulnenhof
is also the starting point for LTL2015 and a 15 minute drive from our
dinner location. It's a nice place to stay.

Hostellerie Aulnenhof is fully booked now.
There are a few other hotels and B&B's nearby for those people who
are looking for a hotel room.

Can you tell me what was wrong with Frederic's car?
His car came with a fresh service and a new cambelt too.

Good to hear LordAbrassive.

Zitat von Bernd12

Please look at https://www.lotus-forum.de/www.bf-sportwagen.de there is a prefect Mk1 with only 9.800km on the clock

I saw that one already.

But I just missed out on a similar car (Norfolk Mustard yellow) with
16.000 km on the clock, new tires and cam belt done for 24.500 euro.
The car came with a one year warranty. The car was immaculate but
I waited too long to make my decision.


Is the price still negotiable? I have cash waiting.

Hallo,

I'm looking for a low mileage Elise S1.
I'm looking for an early standard S1, an 111S or a Sport 160.

I have cash waiting for the right car. So if you're thinking about selling, let me know
You can answer in German. I understand German but don't write it very well.

Kind regards.

This topic doesn't seem to generate a lot of interest this year.

If I understand correctly you're thinking about buying stekki's car?
i know this car. The car has been maintained, regardless of cost.
Stekki always drove the car with respect.

The car is noticably faster than my ex Exige S240.

This is our flyer for this year:

Hello,

First of all; pardon me for writing in English. I can read and speak en bit of German, but I'm
not good at writing it.

Together with 5 other Lotus fanatics, I'm organizing our 5th Lotus Tour Limburg on june the 21st 2015.
Some people on here already participated before so know a little what to expect. Last year, over 70 cars
attended our event. The roads this year will be completely different compared to last year.

This year our starting point is in Walshoutem, less than an hour away from Aachen and the finish is in Orsmaal-Gussenhoven,
not far away from our starting point. Because this is close to the German border this might be of interest for German people.

What do we offer:
- Beautyful and very easy to follow road book
- Breakfast, lunch and diner on beautiful locations
- A lot of fun and nice twists (this year from the beautiful fruit gardens of Haspengouw to the Ardennes and back)
- Great atmosphere

Registrations are open so don't hesitate to register at https://www.lotus-forum.de/www.lotustourl…nregistrer.html

More info can be found at our website https://www.lotus-forum.de/www.lotustourlimburg.be
Part of the site is written in English.
On our site you can find a lot of pictures from previous editions.

Hope to see you guys at Lotus Tour Limburg.

I mailed the seller too. The seller claims the car has never been in an accident, but I found the
absence of decals at the rear very strange. I was planning on travelling 800 km one way to
go and see this 240R. Glad I did a search here.

Termin ist im Kalender notiert...................wenn nichts dazwischen kommt sind wir dabei.
muss man sich dort irgendwo anmelden.................mein belgisch ist nicht so gut................um nicht zu sagen GARNICHT!!!!!!

We will put the registration form online a few months before the event. I'll also post a reminder over here.
No need to speak Dutch. Some of us can help you out in German, French or English.

Zitat von = Fox =

Thank you for the tip!
I will write to Lotus and ask if they have still some in stock.

It's Seriously Lotus and not Lotus who had these in stock. https://www.lotus-forum.de/www.seriouslylotus.com

Seriously Lotus had a few sets in stock a while ago.
Maybe he still has these. They're not cheap though.

I had an original set on my S2 111S but sold these after selling my car.
The best looking wheels for the S2 K-series in my opinion.

Hi,

The pics taken at LTL2014 are online.  
http://www.lotustourlimburg.be/fotosphotos.html

You can download the high-res pics if you want.

Hi Tom,

The bad weather indeed messed up some of the roads. Sorry for that. But like you already mentioned; you can't blame us for that.
It has been pooring down in the last days before the event. If there will be a LTL2015 we might head back to the Ardennes. We'll see.

As far ast the no-shows are concerned. No need to "fight this out", but I just wanted to point out this has cost us money.
We charge you guys and girls 65,- euro's and nearly every euro out of that budget is used to give our participants a great time.
You can do the maths.

Anyway. If we organize LTL2015 I'll post it here too.

Kind regards.
Thierry

Hi again,

Team LTL would like to thank al our German Lotus-friends who participated at Lotus Tour Limburg.
We hope you guys and girl enjoyed our tour. We hope to see you next year.

Please let us know what you thought about it (positive and negative).

PS: One thing worth mentioning and explaining; Bernd Heiser and Peter Winands registered but didn't
show up or pay. We can understand that you can't make it over to Belgium due to whatever reason.
It would be nice if you let use know this before we have to ask you. When we receive an answer on
friday saying that you can't make it on sunday it's too late to inform our catering. We ended up paying
for your food and drinks. If you would have let us know earlier we could have cancelled your registration.

Hi guys,

One week left till LTL2014.
Today we received the registration from our 60th car participant.

We would like to thank our German Lotus fellas for registering.

We hope you guys will have a fantastic day out amongst other Lotus-lovers.

The first half of the day you guys will be able to drive at a nice smooth pace.
In the afternoon the roads will be bit narrower.

No need to eat before you drive of to Tongeren. There's plenty to eat at
the breakfast buffet.

See you next Sunday.  

We're proud that the Essex Esprit, as seen on our flyer will also be attending our event.

This is a list of registered cars so far. More to follow.
https://www.lotus-forum.de/www.lotustourl…pants-2014.html

We already have a few registered cars from Germany.

This year's flyer.

Hello eveybody,

PS: Are there similar tours organised in Germany? We'd like to attend one of those too in 2014.   

Zitat von Balu

Es sind von Trier nach Tongern in Belgien ca 2 Stunden Fahrzeit. Von dort aus geht es mit Hilfe eines Roadbook ca 210km durch die Belgische Eifel. Es gibt immer wieder kleine Pausen, Mittagessen und zum Abschluß ein Abendessen. Die Palette der Fahrzeuge erstreckt sich über mehr als 30 Jahre Lotus Geschichte. Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen.

Last year we drove through "Die Belgische Eifel". This year we'll be heading in another direction.
The formula stays the same. (Breakfast, detailed roadbook for tour 1, lunch, detailed road book for tour 2, diner)
Our aim is to let our participants enjoy a nice day out with their Lotus amongst other Lotus-fanatics.
Nice roads, nice food and and a nice atmosphere.

To give you an idea of the distance from Germany:
Aachen - Tongeren (starting point) is a 50 minute drive.
Orsmaal (finish) - Aachen is a 65 minute drive.
