After many years of waiting i have finally got my 1st Lotus.

I am lucky enough to have one of the first customer cars of the MY 2010 Facelift model Elise R.

Car was collected from Stratton Motor Company last Friday.

Car has all the option boxes ticked, Factory fitted SC rear wing and TRD Induction kit.

It goes without saying i am very happy with the car.

I would like to say thankyou to a few people.

Firstly and the biggest one is to Guy Munday at Strattons for putting up with my endless phone calls for the past few months, he is truly a top man. Thanks Guy

To everyone at Hethel who made us very welcome on our 2 visits while the car was in build. James Haskey, Neil Turner and to James Martin for his help and advise. Thankyou All.

Here are a few of my first picrures.

Looks lovely, very nice Kevin. Perfect plate too, nicely done

The perfect modern sportscar!

Very smart. I love the colour and the interior looks pretty swanky too!

Nice work.

Ooooh looks very nice. The seats are perfect trim shop work... Do you order the seats by Lotus???

Stefan

Great colour combination. Congrats and enjoy

Looks lovely. Congratulations. Enjoy.

Ah takes me back - my first S2 elise was laser blue and it's interesting to see how the car has evolved over 8 years

Lotus...they're all special,aren't they? Keep the chocolate ice cream away from the upholstery!!
