The 1985 Lotus Esprit: Towing
Towing for the 1985 Lotus Esprit: the work is done by a shop we trust, never by CarmaCars. If the car is blocking traffic, stay safe first and call for help.
Details the shop needs
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. It is powered by the 2.2L 4-cylinder turbo, with rear-wheel drive.
How the request works
We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there.
A car meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is back. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
What to ask
If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour.
Between shop visits
Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter.
Your move
Start with a short request; a person replies within one business day.
Request towing
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
