what a weekend

[wantalotus]

we've just spent a few days up in the Lakes, what a beautiful place, and some great driving roads too.

But what really made the trip was coming back to the car after a quick shopping trip to find a couple of tourists drooling over and taking pics of my pride and joy!!!!

Mind you who can blame them, should have seen the blokes face as I strolled up and bleeped the central locking, a clasic.....

I did not spoil their fun, gave em plenty of time to dream and take more pics. I always knew there was more to Lotus ownership than just driving.

beautiful car and scenery. Where is that ? (might want to bring my gf on a road trip in the UK sometime)

its in the NW of England around Lakes Windermere, Ullswater, and Coniston ( of Donald Campbell fame and the water speed record)

There is something that gets to the tourists there it seems...
When we were in the lakes a few weeks back, having stopped for lunch in a pub we came out and had to stand around the corner from the cars(yellow+scandal green parked back to back) while a coach load of about 30 foreign tourists took it in turns to have their photo taken.. One at a time between the cars!

Great roads and a great car, it looks like an absolutely amazing trip! Just going to have a look at some cottage prices for a weekend away.................

I drove into Liverpool last night to do some shopping and had young lads running after me filming me on their mobiles. It makes you feel special
I was in the Elise btw, not just walking along. I'm not famous or anything....
