After
all the delays, first with the factory shutting down and then postponing
production
and then delays in loading it onto the shipping and then the ship itself
getting stuck at
the Panama Canal because of hurricane Isidore, and then, finally, after the
customs hassles, a
monster strike at the shipyards, it almost didn’t happen. But,
finally, with perseverance, I was
able to persuade a trucker to get the container out.

This
shows the ramp (or “steps”) we created to get the car out! A quick drive home, and there
it was, settling into its new homeland! 200-odd delivery miles to
Felixstowe from Hethel, a
jaunt across the Atlantic, through the Panama Canal, and then up the
Pacific Coast, and
an Elise S2 is finally in America.
