I just heard form the driver of the transport company, he says he's about 60 miles away. My new (old) Lotus is almost here!

Rats! Just heard from the driver again. It's really more like 3 hours away rather than an hour. Still, after a month of waiting, it'll be here today.

I'll take plenty of pics and post 'em later.

Kyle,

I think you need to enter in a Lotus 12-step program.

Oh, no. He's still just an hour away. He just realized that he hasn't driven the car enough yet. "I'm just adding a few miles to the car here... I mean I'm a few more hours away than I thought."
