Fantastic! What a great read. Only 12 months and what sounds like a milestone of work to get the old girl running with a heartbeat and sitting pretty. The main thing is Lotus stayed alive and continued on to eventually produce the Elise, a wonderful sports car for every man. So much heart goes into producing cars and sometimes the dreams are left behind by harsh circumstances. We're lucky to have these guys with plenty of resources and passion to come along save these treasures.

Didn't Italdesign take the Etna design to Subaru, who then launched it as the SVX?

This Bentley Hunaudieres is an absolute stunner, I believe.
This car basically turned in to the Bugatti Veyron, using near enough the same W16 engine albeit naturally aspirated.

No idea if this is canned yet, let's hope not. BMW SX concept:


Love this M1 homage thingy, assume it'll never make production:


Perhaps not canned quite yet but certainly not appeared in production form yet - Alfa 2uettottanta

If vw had to waste money, then they should have wasted it on these instead of the phaeton.

Would give Cadillac their mojo back. I know why manufacturers create concept cars but personally I just think they make the stuff they actually make look all the worse.
