Situation normal for a Lotus,I'd have thought.(on the hoist....not necessarily with the numbnut inside it)
Ok,that explains it then................................................ it's in for a COMPLETE rebuild.
Speaking of, did anyone come across this beauty recently? Secret plan to fit 'remote stopping' devices to cars "The devices, which could be in all new cars by the end of the decade, would be activated by a police officer working from a computer in a central control room. Once enabled, the suspect vehicle's fuel supply would be cut and the ignition switched off, bringing it to a halt." WTF? Seriously? Is the EU that lawless, car chases are so rampant that they need to resort to these measures? Aren't they wayyy ahead of the game with choppers, radio communications, and mates up the road to run down anyone they want to? Typical self righteous & knee jerk response from Brussels and the UK. As Isaac Newton said, for every action, there is an equal and opposite action.. for every push, there will be an equal (if not more) push back...
The crooks would just work out how to disable it ... You can buy these already to be personally activated if somebody has stolen your car, BTW. Pete
Probably no surprise about which car wins the speed award, and there's no doubt about which one wins the best sound award either. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5_AKjDdqaU]Bugatti Veyron vs Lamborghini Aventador vs Lexus LFA vs McLaren MP4-12C - Head 2 Head Episode 8 - YouTube[/ame]

Reassuring for Aston owners to learn that various bits of their "hand built in England" cars are made (badly) in China. On the Web today : Aston Martin is*recalling 17,590 cars after discovering that they contain counterfeit parts. The recall affects around 75 percent of the cars produced by Aston Martin since November, 2007, and stems from the discovery that a Chinese sub-supplier allegedly used a counterfeit plastic to produce part of the cars' gas pedal.
