Ex Lotus owner
Guys, I was a proud owner of one Black Lotus Elise from 1999-2003. I sold my Red Mazda MX-5 and moved to a more a masculine number without killing my wallet and bank balance...
At the time it was a new roadster model in UK and hardly anyone owed one here ....it was affordable , easy to maintain, and was one mean 'mover'....she was nicknamed..'my other woman'..cause I would be spending all my casual time with her driving through country lanes and weaving through the city roads..
Naturally it attracted looks from everybody and anyone...it was a 'sex machine' on wheels...It gave me immense joy and thrill....I must have been complimented more times than I can remember...not to mention the number of girls I pulled....(thats another story for another forum site)
Times change...kids came along..and I needed a bigger motor...So in 2003 I had to part with my beloved...it was a sad day to see it being driven off by the new owner....I miss her everyday..
If there is anyone out there contemplating on whether to buy a Lotus or some other sports car....Go for the new Lotus Elise ...its a driving experience you will never forget..take it from me, I know..
