Yeah +1 on that. Big Time. I never thought i would ever have a car like this and even as it stands, it keeps me completely skint. But not much else puts such a cheesy grin on my face than this car. Although I can barely get to any of the meets I feel like part of a family here. Same as you, my missus is talking of getting an r8 one day. Once the big rumbly v8 bug bites, it just doesn't let go. Awesome!

Jimbo that's so cool. Nice find.

I was looking thru my service manual the other day and one of the previous owners had the plate B1 VXR. I'm sure i've seen that somewhere before, years ago, before I even considered owning one. I just can't remember.

Speak soon.

Great find! Your car looks awesome in the photos! Love the Lotus Carlton - my mum & dad both had Carltons when I was a kid so the big Lotus was my pin up car! biggrin

Shame theres not more pics of the R8 & Lotus Carlton together.

Cheers James! Yeah my better half's dad took me out for a quick spank in the carlton once (it's a collector's piece for him, so he barely drives it) and I just couldn't believe the savage power of it. For such a big car, it really is brutal. Makes all your blood rush to the back of your body when it's nailed. And coz it's a straight six it sounds wicked as well.
