Evo had an advert that said you can get some 'free lotus oxygen' if you call to book a test drive. While stocks last ofc.

The Lotus site wrote:Lotus Oxygen available while stocks last. Alternatively keep breathing the ready-mix.

on a more positive note I was reading last night that they are looking at every aspect of the Elise again to see where weight savings can be made.

Would be genial if they could get it down a good chunk.

Hopefully 2 days to go till she's back on the road :wink:

Nick Adams and Tony Shute on the big screen though. At least they've got a couple of the guys responsible for the engineering of the car in it and not some anonymous actors - some recognition for the part the engineering teams have played in making the cars what they were.
