Yeah I've seen pics of the Lotus. We approached him and asked him if he would like to make an appearance on our forum... gladly he has accepted. Welcome Paul!

Hi Paul,

glad to see you're still around. I followed some of your Lotus stories on your website (type104.co.uk) but that doesn't seem to exist anymore.

keep Infinicar up and running Smile

Hiya Paul!

One of these days I will actually buy something from you, but something always crops up cheaper when I'm about to bite the bullet. Sad

Nothing modern day caused the stink the Lotus Carlton did when it was launched - I even have a transcript of a parliament debate session about it - its a pity I dont really remember its launch at all....but having collected just about all the memrobelia to go with the car, it appeared to cause a bit of a stir Smile

Sure theres faster, better built etc etc....but I would have one of these over most modern stuff and spend the change on Renaults Smile
