You have one of the best authorized Lotus repair facility on the east coast in Closter,NJ. RS Motorsport is owned and operated by Ralph Stechow who has approx. 30 years experience with Lotus motorcars. I just had my '01 Esprit there for r&r of the cam belts under warranty by Lotus. I can't recommend this guy enough. He is a real Lotus mechanic who is the only one doing the work on your car. The best part is he went the extra mile to treat my Esprit like no other mechanic would. Ask around on other groups and you will find the same votes of confidence. Worth the trip from anywhere on the east coast. Link
