Spotted - Lotus Eagle!

Spotted what I'm fairly certain was an Eagle on the A11 this afternoon! Was all taped up, obviously - with crosshatching on the sides which matches all the images on Google, in the mags etc

Exciting stuff

i asked one of the guys developing them to get a PH sticker and put it on one for a laugh but he said it wouldn't pass the admins.
i'd have thought it would help the sales of the cars with it being advertised on here.

Still an enthusiast of Lotus, who is'nt, but that name 'Eagle' thats not thee name is it? sounds like one of thier race pedal bikes! or was that Coventry Eagle? Whatever, am I the only one who thinks the name is naff? Can't wait to see the car tho.

It not going to be called the eagle.
That is just the in-house model name. for example before we saw the S2 elise that was known as the monza....
runmour has it, it will be call the ethos.
but who knows tbh.

Well thats a relief! I recall some years ago now Lotus ran a competitionlooking for a new name for what may have been the Elan. I submitted Ethos, and got nowhere, seems they might have stored some answers at that time.

Well how about that! You type Lotus Eagle into Google Images and the first result is PH!

However it's not getting me reaching for my wallet I'm afraid.
