Its been a long time coming but i should finally be taking delivery of my first lotus next saturday, its a mint 2005 111S in Storm Titanium. Cant wait to get it home, anyway thought i'd come on and say hi. Hoping to come to some events and meets over the next few years and meet some fellow car enthusiasts.

Welcome. If you are anything like me then the buzz you feel the first time you walk up, climb in and pull away just wont go away however long you have it. I love it :-)

Welcome on board.
Just take it easy in this cold/wet/slippery weather we're having at the mo'
Oh, and the car looks really nice. Enjoy.

Thanks, i dont plan on using it much when the weather gets bad and wet, we also have an Alfa GT and my trusty Mk1 Mr2 on the drive. I'll be using the Mr2 everyday which ive owned for 8 years now and feel more confident driving in bad conditions.

Its been a long wait but i finally got the 111S home last saturday after a very early start to get the train to Lancaster. Heres a quick pic of the new and the old, will still be using the Mr2 for wet/cold weather. Cant wait for spring/summer though so i can get the top off the Elise, i keep forgetting its a softtop because its got the hardtop on.
