I had a couple of hours free after work tonight, so I thought I'd give the centre console for the Lotus a clean up and check over. It's been sitting upstairs in a spare bedroom since about last September, so I thought I'd better make sure it was fit enough to go back in the car.
The first thing I found when I looked inside the centre pouch was a book of matches from Trust House Forte! These were a big hotel chain all over England before being taken over by Granada.
There was no date on these matches, but the London phone number on them started with an 01 phone code. (London later changed to 081 and then 0207 for inner London and 0208 for outer London.)
Anyway, I cleaned up the centre console and refitted it. It's not the prettiest console I have seen, but it will do the job until something better comes along.
