I was at a car show a few years back. There were many exotic and rare cars there, the two best things I saw all day was a Lotus Eclat in excellent condition, and a rust free β 2000 LE. That first sentence was, however unintended, quite prescient.

I used to have that poster on my bedroom wall and used to dream of owning a + 8.

I've had two now.

Great film btw.
