Eer, what is clear to me Alan, is that FREE PARKING is for topics with NO LOTUS CONTENT.

No matter how far removed your +2 is from original, I am sure there is some remnant of a Lotus there somewhere.

At least now you won't be dazzled by 99% of other road users at night!

What are you having done to the car Alan....it's a bit early for a chassis change!?

I've studied the photograph carefully and I can't see a poodle anywhere.....who or what is the poodle, and where is he or she??!!

Shhh! don't tell anyone Mark, but I'm having a 6 speed gearbox fitted.

I'm not allowed to go off topic, so can't discuss the poodle. Leslie will fill you in if you ask him.

Alan, I thought you had already solved this by fitting higher profile tyres.....

......looking at your pic, you may need to go bigger still, how about these?
