It's good to know that at least one person has taken something positive out of this. We do tend to be rather passionate about our choice of car, probably because a large proportion have made a carefully considered decision about the M100 and we can get a bit fed up with some of the stereotypical jibes that you hear from time to time. We also tend to be quite passionate about the Lotus marque in general, so go and check out some of the history and the truly innovative cars that Lotus have been making from other people's spare parts for almost 60 years.
If you're ever in the UK, make sure you look us up.

I don't know. I happen to think that your (UK's) license plates looks quite nice - especially when compared to the heinous US plates.
I'm a Mini guy (Mark I's to be exact - from around 1959 to 1966) and was a Porsche guy until they built that POS SUV. I've always had an appreciation for Lotus but became really interested when the S1 Elise was introduced back in 1996. I'm not a total noob when it comes to Lotus history...honestly...I just know very little about the M100...but all the photos that people have posted are really enticing, to say the least. I'm becoming quite a fan.
Thank you! I just returned from Europe in September. I didn't make it to England but will one of these days...and I'll be sure to look you guys up.
