@Otter_Count I did Lanoguard the underside a couple of weekends ago. It’s not too bad under there…
English
First roof-down drive of the year. Only a matter of time now before the weather is good enough to clean it.
English
@Otter_Count Had the MR2 professionally detailed and ceramic coated in February 2023. Haven’t cleaned it since…
English
@AdamWilkins_ It wasn't good enough for my car all last year.
Or the year before that.
Etc
English
@PeterLattimer @JiggyJaggyJags Here’s the full list. Nowhere near as bad as it could have been – I already knew about the tyres, exhaust and coil spring.
English
@AdamWilkins_ @JiggyJaggyJags assuming sills etc were solid, im going to guess bushes in the bottom suspension arms, metal brake pipe over the fuel tank and a few rear suspension bushes.
English
@PeterLattimer @CrackedRearView Yep, it’s a K-reg from the first six months of production.
English
@AdamWilkins_ @CrackedRearView that must be a 1993 (built) car. from memory that was the only year (late K/early L plate launch year cars) that DIDNT have the bumper tops painted. my 94L plate, and our 96 plate diesel both had fully painted bumpers
English
@AdamWilkins_ It certainly didn’t leave the factory like that though.
English
@AdamWilkins_ Nice. I’d like one of these. Shame about the wheel trims though!
English
@CrackedRearView I’ve had four of them. Two as cheap dailies, two as modern classics. Probably my favourite ‘ordinary’ car.
English
@AdamWilkins_ I drove an early K plate red one as a promotional vehicle for our MOT gas analysers in 95. Honestly loved it. Covered in “Servitron 196” sign writing but hey ho 😎
English
@andrewelan If it’s viable to go back on the road, it’s getting a good polish!
English
@AdamWilkins_ @AbsoluteLotus_ Medicine going down very well thanks!
English
Wishing a happy Christmas to all our readers, advertisers and everyone who keeps the Lotus world turning. Here's to a wonderful 2025.

@andrewelan @AbsoluteLotus_ I’ve no idea where the word medicine came from. I’ve been having to keep a close eye on autocorrect since my phone screen was replaced.
English
@andrewelan @AbsoluteLotus_ Merry Christmas! Hope you’re having a medicine good one.

@neiljulianwood That little Panda looks the part in that line-up. My dad’s has just breathed its last with a gearbox failure. Not bad though, it’s done 309,000 miles.

PSA: It’s £31/month. if you tell them you want to cancel at renewal time.

The fury I see around Adobe's subscription model is vastly exaggerated. Show me another profession where you get get all the tools you need to do your job for £50 a month? Anyone half decent earns the full years subscription fee in the first week of January.
