Diff scale but would imagine an other british supercar maker that is currently up for sale should hopefully bolster the market value of lotus. Hmm would be quite a combo if Mr Benz bought Lotus & AM!

I can't remember a time when Lotus hasn't been lurching from one financial crisis to another, or when there haven't been serious questions about its long term future :roll: . I guess the next couple of years are going to be pretty critical though - they really badly need the new Esprit to be a success, and they have got to replace the S2 Elise/Exige which ain't gonna be easy with all the latest rules and regulations in the US.
