9pm: I Want That Car
I don't know anything about it other than the Sky TV guide synopsis, so no refunds if it turms out to be gash or irrelevant

I watched the first episode and it was truly awful television. Will have a look for Elise content but the challenge will be to get to the end of the show without turning over. Lotus content or not.....

Programme was drivel, but that doesn't distinguish it from 99% of the TV schedule.
I liked the perky bird clambering in and out of the Eunos. The Elise (VX220) spot, banal as it was, still had me hankering for my old Lotus...

Laughed a lot!
We rented one of those Astra TwinTop things on our honeymoon. Never have I known a car where you turn the front wheels to go around a corner and the back wheels still want to go straight on! Not to mention highly embarrassing when the roof got stuck in a main street! I'm sure they didn't intend the chassis to be articulated - but sure felt that way!

Other half had a Twintop a few years ago and it wasn't a bad place to be with the roof up but an awful drive with the roof down
