Live The Lotus Life

Live the Lotus Life

To celebrate its 60th Birthday Lotus is holding an open event at its Hethel Headquarters in Norfolk on

Sunday 14th September and will announce the lucky winner of the 'Live the Lotus Life' competition, the

prize being a fully insured Lotus Elise for 6 whole months!

For its diamond anniversary Lotus has organised an assortment of activities designed to entertain the

whole family; a fun fair, farmers market, auction and RAF displays are all confirmed as well as access to

Lotus' world-class manufacturing and engineering facilities. Visitors will also be privy to a specially

commissioned exhibition that charts the development of Lotus' brand new car, which is still only known

by its codename 'Project Eagle'. Advanced tickets are available online through the dedicated website

www.lotus60thanniversary.com and those who book early can buy laps of the famous Hethel test track

as a passenger in an iconic Lotus Elise.

The pinnacle of the day will be the 'Live the Lotus Life' competition finale. Lotus is giving away a fully

insured Elise for 6 months to commemorate this special anniversary through an online competition

hosted by Radio Broadland.

"Our cars are for people of character who know who they are and love to have fun." commented Mike

Kimberley, CEO of Group Lotus Plc. "The adrenaline fuelled experience of driving a Lotus is legend

and we want to give someone the chance to enjoy this exhilarating experience."

For a chance to win you can enter online at www.radiobroadland.co.uk and entrants who correctly

answer the qualifying question will go through to a second round. 60 finalists will be drawn and each

will be awarded a key. Each finalist will be invited to try their key at the Lotus Open Day on 14th

September, only one key opens the prize Elise though and the lucky key holder will win the car and

have the chance to experience the prestige that driving a Lotus brings, for 6 whole months.

Radio Broadland is providing a cash prize of £1000 for the lucky winner. "We hope that the competition

winner will whisk their significant other away in the Lotus for a lavish weekend; dine at fine restaurants

and take in some retail therapy and generally live like the rich and famous!" Remarked Steve Martin,

Programme Controller for Radio Broadland.

Enter on line now and Live the Lotus Life for 6 months!

    What is the point of a Lotus these days?

    I have recently changed my Daily from a dirty diesel to an electric.  It struck me that the 0-60 times were almost identical, possibly quicker, to the Exige so my thought was, if comfortable family cars with suitcase room are now performing so well, are our cars becoming obsolete? Has the acceleration potential of EV’s made traditional sports cars meaningless? In an era where electric motor torque is rewriting the rules of straight‑line acceleration, it’s easy to forget what “fast” use

    LOTUS Action Camera Mod for rear view mirror

    Hi, my name is Marco and I'm from Liverpool, I'm new to this forum and new to Lotus. Towards the end of last year I started to get that itch of wanting a sporty fun car again (I had owned a couple of Mk4 Supras between 2000 & 2009) I was looking for a car that was not too big as it needed to fit into my narrow garage so I could hook it up to a trickle charger as it was not going to be a daily driver. I decided that an Elise would be perfect, after searching for months for the

    Toxic Green S-Cup - (Aka Grogu)

    Hi all as with most of my cars I thought I’d start a bit of a build thread. However unlike most cars which I bought and built up to be highly modified the plans for the lotus are quite different and so this will be more thread of its life in my ownership. I have also created a Facebook page called “Toxic Green S-Cup - (Aka Grogu)” containing images of its progress pre and post purchase.

    Newbie question

    As the title suggests , a newbie query. I have just bought an S2 Elise , 2007 with the Toyota 1ZZ power unit in ‘ touring spec’. That means electric windows, a radio and , err, not sure what else. Anyway, that is not the subject of the query. The car is blue with a cream interior. The latter I don’t plan to keep. In fact , already bought some equivalent second hand door cards in black and am looking hard at a pair of Corbeau LE seats . So, first part of my query centres on those Corbeau seats. A
