Hello Simon and welcome

Glad your liking your Lotus... any pics?

You'll find a good bunch of people here, helpful, friendly and funny... I've made lots of new friends since I've been here

It's great to talk to other people who are just as nutty about their cars as I am!!

hey coupe girl,

Thanks for your welcome i've posted a pic of my car in my profile. The laser blue Exige S beside mine is my cousin's car! After having a shot of his car, i couldn't resist so had to by one myself, it not a 'S' though. Is that your beamer? looks really sweet!

Your car is lovely and I'm jealous... an Exige... wow...

How do you find it? Is it like anything you've driven before?

I love my Lotus although it's only an S2 nothing so special as an Exige although the 340R is a bit

Yes, that's my old beemer. I like that they're so rare, and I love the look of it, and to drive it, well...

Anyway, happy posting and I hope you make many new friends here

Thanks guys

the lotus is something special as i have never had any other cars similar. my last car was a hyundai Coupe and the one before was just a corsa, so i can safely say i've jumped up a few power bands!

Don't feel left out coupe girl, i think red is actually quite nice. when i was looking to bye a lotus i did come across a red exige and was close to buying it, but the blue was more my colour and got a better deal too.
