i think thats the way to do it gary. buy a car and keep it for as long as possible until you need to fix it every month.

70,000 miles from new (98R), no major probs, was offered 9,500 for it 2 months ago but decided to keep it. No HGF but had a new fitted when I had a big valve ported head fitted. Got a bit of play in the steering column UJ other than that no major problemns at all in 7 years! Plan to keep it unlesss Lotus offer a 4 seater.
