QUESTION.
I can find no info on where the jack-points are for my Lotus Eclat S2 front and rear.
There is nothing in the workshop manual so could you please help?

ANSWER.
Don't be surprised but most Lotus manuals omit a lot of useful information.
Despite what the owners handbook says, it is safer to lift these vehicles on the chassis with a soft piece of timber placed on a low profile hydraulic jack.
Best location at the front of the vehicle, is to lift underneath the front suspension towers.
Its difficult to access a convenient location at the rear of the chassis but underneath the differential is ideal.
