Right, just paid for http://www.scottishelises.com

Don't try it as it's going to take up to 24hours to transfer and then I gotta redirect stuff to here (hopefully that'll happen tonight)

It cost £35.00 all in, so somebody else do the maths! Like I say, I'll set up something to pay me at some point... But I won't starve in the meanwhile!

Wahay! http://www.scottishelises.com is working for me!

Please note though, it may not work for a while for all ISPs, while the changes filter down through all the myriad DNS servers.

G, shall we say a scaleable design, starting with a simple 60x200mm landscape for rear windows? or 100x300mm? What do we think?

Farily simple, with a very legible web addy, so the car behind can read.

That sound okay to everyone?

Well, I think we should also go for something simple.
Before I look into designs..how about this?

IMHO - please somebody tell me if I'm talking sh*t, the scottishelises copy is a little small and (dare I say it) dated looking?

But, it's all personal taste, innit? As long as the web addy is clear enough to be read, I'll go with the flow.

Maybe just the font?

I also like JJ's idea which you will see shortly.

Needs to emphasise the Scottish part of it more methinks. The other thing is Lotus can apparently get stroppy over use of their logos so might be best avoiding using it. And I don't find the font easily readable either.

Lotus are mucho stroppy about you making cash out of the logo, but I don't think it's an issue with owner's clubs. Might email someone at the factory to be double sure...

I like subtle....

Done in S1 / S2 typeface depending on what you have and colours to match car.

Might be more of a hassle for the sticker co-ordinator. Could also have a small version 80mm x80 mm for next to the B pillar / rear screen as well.

There be a plan....

Although would be much better if we could get the form of the addon bit (not match the exact fontstyle, mind, that would be awful) to go with the lines of the elise font...

I like the idea of the blue lotus badge, perhaps you could add the saltire to be more scottish?

Quick paintbrush effort (sorry about the barsteward Gareth):
