get taken to school in a Lotus Eclat by his dad.
One of my high school teachers had a silver Lotus Eclat, an 'A' reg. I think. It's probably gone to the test track in the sky by now...

We used to think he was loaded (can't have been from the school salary! :P). No doubt his aptitude for CDT (welding, working with lathes etc.) came in handy owning a car like that! wink

A good few years ago I worked briefly with an Austin Martin who had a twin brother Peter Martin.

I'm sure you can guess who was the eldest
