As far as the white-collar speed freaks comment goes, it was more or less a reference to every Lotus owner I have met IRL thus far. Doesn't apply to all. And I use the term affectionately.

Welcome Terrapin! Doesn't matter whether it's a Lotus or a beloved van; the value most on this board attach to their vehicles is sentimental first. The loss of a vehicle such as your van that has seen you through many a day is a sad thing.
Terrapin Station was the first Grateful Dead album I bought as a kid. Good times, great memories.
