My mate has a Caterham for the day and wants me to join him for a drive. He picks it up from Earl Shilton on thursday morning. I know we've done a few events around that area and was wondering what roads were good. Any help appreciated. Cheers Peter PS not too far away as they only allow less than 100 miles.

It appears you cant please everyone. Seems to be alot of petty "if you don't put this pic in I'm not buying it" squabbling. If you dont like it, don't buy it. Simple as. Either way, my pic won the month of June (I think!) - so I'm well chuffed Unless of course, Scott and Mods decide to nullify all the voting and change stuff around. Personally, I think it looks damn good as it is. Top job Mr Mac

I have had my S1 for about 4 months now- love it more it with each day that passes! I clean the car (nearly) every week- but have never done anything to the hood. Could others please advise as to how they care for theirs? Is there any special treatment / spray that I need to apply (how often?) to keep it waterproof? Many thanks, Regards, Ian

What a stunning, fantastic car!!!! Picked it up today and must admit I was a little worried about changing from my 911 to the Lotus, but what a fantastic move it was. Travelled back up the M5 from Nick Whale who I must say did a sterling sales job with a smile like a cheshire cat. Had a performance exhaust fitted which sounds completeley different to the Porsche but is equally intoxicating and I loved every minute of the journey home. Best decision i've made!!!! Oh by the way my location is'nt Coventry that is a typo!!

Any recommendations for good garages around Nott to balance tyres? Don't trust KwikFit as they couldn't balance the Audi ones after 5 attempts. I remember something Browns being mentioned ages ago. Hopefully only £10 each. Cheers

Just thought I'd log in and join the 'chat'... as I've only just been introduced th the site. Anyway, I'm relatively new to the Lotus world, although I am on my second Elise. Just upgraded my S2 Sports Tourer for a new S2 111S. I now have the urge to add a few mods. Any worthwhile recommendations? And is it me, or have the seats shrunk? I'm sure they were bigger in my 2001 S2!

Wanted some trackday driving gloves so checked out the Yellow Pages. Came across a shop called Raceways, in Burton on Trent. Dunno if anyone else has been there, but very cool shop !!! Lots of goodies - clothing, t-shirts, gloves, helmets, overalls, accessories, and lots of car models. Many S1 and S2 Elise models. Is just off the A38 and worth a visit. Tel: 01283-517935

Just thought I would let you know that in Novembers Top Gear mag there is a free DVD which has a shortened version of Clarkson trying to evade missile lock from an Apache helicopter around the test track in a Lotus Exige. Just thought I would mention it as this is the clip that made my mind up to buy the Exige well worth a look!!
