Just had my new 111R delivered and what a beautiful sight, it is the first time that i have seen it in the flesh as i bought it from seeing the advert on the classifieds.It is absolutely stunning.
Cant describe how pleased i am with it. I will be needing to retube the light in my garage pretty soon as everytime i walk past the door i pop my head in to have a look !!!
Will be going for a good drive tomorrow.
Thanks to all at London Lotus especially Maher(sorry if mispelt your name again)who has been a diamond to do business with.

One thing ive noticed already and ive only driven it about 3 miles is the amount of cars that drive on my bumper. I forgot owning a Lotus encouraged such dickheads. Didnt have any of that with the TTR.
I'm really pleased for you matey, its so good to have you back in the club too!
As mentioned above, dont forget how vital it is to run it in properly. The Audi Titty wouldn't have needed running in as the ECU is programmed to restrict the performance slightly from the off and release it in incremental stages as you pass certain mileage "markers" - but the Elise's "ECU" will be your right foot. Go steady!
Oh and get some pics up Mr!!!!!

Seriously, i have the "bug" again. The Audi was a very nice car but it didnt "do it" fo me. I never checked on it when i went past the garage, i ddint have one last look before bed, i didnt look out of my office window one hundred times a day at it etc etc.
The Lotus does have its drawbacks, or rather other people have drawbacks with a Lotus. It seems to bring out the worst in other drivers and i have rediscovered the joys of speedbumps.
Im looking forward to getting some driver training as i want to be able to drive it with confidence, i drove my last Lotus like a Vicar on his way to church and i have driven this one the same so far. Im probably being well over cautious but as they say it is better to be safe than sorry.
I will be taking loads of pics tomorrow but will need advice on how to publish them on here, if you know how please let me know.
