If it was 5 years ago then perhaps but nowadays it aint very special is it.

Been in one and it felt like a limo ie comfy but boring. With the lack and price of parts that are still available I wouldnt take the lotus route.

Whats wrong with the Evo, its probably loads better than an old carlton?

Some cars are meant to be just dreams.

a few of us met james waddington by chance on the way toi engine advantages when damo's charge cooler hose split

hes a top bloke and he knows a fair bit about em,,,,,,,, but he has a wrote off LC for spares

theres also a guy who makes the "kiss me quick" ect hats near southend who has one,,,,,,,,, he has a driver that drives it for him too so guess the limo thing is true about em

imo get looking at the facts and dont ask peoples advice on here as it could end in problems anyway
