It's rare you get that - most of the time it's kids saying 'nice car' or staring with a smile on their faces and such like.
Makes up for the odd idiot.
Hello & welcome to NYLOC
Must agree with Paul, I think the fact that Lotuses are still relatively rare on the road helps and of course kids love em 
We've had no bother since getting back into the Lotus world a long time ago.

A big hello from a forum newb in ..erm ... Warwickshire!
All's not lost though, I am a Yorkshireman, albeit not quite from the North of the county. I was born in Bradford, and spent my informative years in Bingley until university and work sadly whisked me away. I do have an apartment in Harrogate, my best mate lives in Addingham, and all my family are still in the Bingley area so I spend an inordinate amount of time on the M1!
Any road up - tenuous justification over, I hope to be re-kindling the joys of Lotus ownership soon after a break of 17 years (I did 40k miles in an S1 Elise in '98/'99) so I'll no-doubt return shortly with a number of predictable questions..

Hello Matt, what its like up North? mmmm. Well you need to have at least a brace of whippets, there maybe some interbreeding, suffer from short arms (so as not to reach the bottom of your pockets), have yorkshire pudding and beef every Sunday, communicate in a way that others may find difficult to follow(both verbal and body language) a member of your family may have been the subject of a David Attenborough documentary, and generate a lot of gas from all orifices. These are just a few pointers, there are variants dependent on the area you are in.
Welcome
Stuart

Just a thought mikeEl-ahrairah wrote:One thing i do notice. I get a lot of looks from mainly men when in the car and some women. However I am starting to get used to hearing nasty comments shouted at me as i drive by. Usually by people in their own cars.
Is it the car they are shouting at?
