He does come out with some odd things every now and then! Still a top bloke in my book though.

The Lotus Elan SE came out in 1990 as did the Lotus Carlton. My first Elan was one of the earliest. I remember squaring up to a Lotus Carlton at the petrol pumps and lusting after it as VBH did. Wolf in sheep's clothing or what?

A quick vote..Lotus Carlton or VXR8?

Lotus Carlton for me, the VXR8 still looks tacky, the Carlton looks menacing.

I almost forgot...VBH
