Fantastic magazine article on Lotus. Just recently I've garnered an interest in them.

I picked up the Victory By Design Lotus series too. They spent a very long time showcasing the race cars, but blew past Europa, Eclat, and the newer Elan. Still very cool watching Alain blasting around the road courses in vintage Lotus hardware.

Just finished reading the article. Very nice and extremely complimentary (as it should be, of course). I've toyed with the idea of buying an Elan, either an early S1 or an S4 Sprint, and this article fueled that desire!

Did anyone else notice that they put
a picture of an S4 Elan next to the section
about S1's?
