She is one hell of a car !! What do we start with first, the looks or the curves :p ..

Ya.. the car is veru basic.. no airbags.. no power steering.. although it did have aircon and a stereo.. getting in and out of the car is a nightmare.. and the car is so small that if u r driving an SUV u wont notice her in the mirrors!! :p

yeah the only gripe is it offers worst than bargin basement interiors but man does the car look good in orange...


actually now that i look at it, which sports car doesnt look good in orange..

btw nice shots, if i were getting this car it would be with full options, sent to a custom interior guy and redone the interior for a small price and then uped the power to compensate for the weight increase ;)



This is how the interiors look in the US version...Maverick- do you know the specs of the car in your pictures? The ones here have a 1.8L engine, with 190bhp.. There's one at work,thats almost a brick color. Will try to get some pix soon..

Hi Nitin am not sure bout the figures of the car.. but this one was a Elise 111s.. also the car had the interiors same like the pics u posted.. only the colour is diff..

Hey Mav,

Nice Car Nice Pictures..clap:
And Definately Head Tuner..

You said it Mav. I once squeezed into the Opel version, VX200 I think. it was a royal pain getting out of it. The trick is to keep the top open, makes it a lot easier.

Hey Mav,

What i want to know is why the car was changed from the sexy 8-spoke original wheels to these absolutely boring OZ wheels (in comparison).

The original wheels were so much lighter than the previous generation wheels that it enabled Lotus to put in a stereo in place of the weight saved on the wheels :)

Maybe they weren't thought to be well suited to bombay roads?

Here r a couple of more pics..

Most certainly the best sporty car you can buy for about $50K. With the reliability of a Toyota Celica engine, and the body of a Lotus it definitely makes an ultimate car, with an impressive power to weight ratio. It is a very fast car, considering the tiny toyota engine. I guess its all because of the light body, and its design.

Also, this is one of the very few cars that you can get in many colors. The color options/variations are one too many. I have always wondered why the car is not gaining popularity. Somebody please donate me $50K!!!

Wow!! Very very beautiful car. Just in love with it!!
