hello everybody!

i'm a new owner so i thought i join this forum and pop in to say hi.

i have had my Lotus s2 exige for about 3-4 weeks now and smiling everytime i get in it! never driven anything like it before

the bad thing is, i had a little accident already

i was parked infront of a wall with the car in first gear. i turned the ignition forgetting it was in first and...bang

Hopefully it should be repaired this week.

some off you may have heard about this already as i recognise some peoples names from other forums.

Thanks

Simon

Welcome!

I have had my S1 for a year and I'm still grinning like a fool!

Thanks Rich!

i can imagine why you are still grinning. i think i'll be the same until the day i let the car go.

Hullo matey!!

bit of a bugger that accident , never nice when the only one to blame is sat in front of the wheel

Still, hurt pride only, so sod it

Look on the bright side, if its still driveable and roadworthy, keep the cracked nose on and get on track

You'll care far less if the car needs a new nose anyway

Hey Simon,

Im up in Aberdeen, but occasionally head down to edinburgh at weekends to see my folks. Been in Aberdeen for about 5 years now.

Greg,

A layer of carnuba wax would have protected it and dented the wall

Been there, done that, got the T-shirt.

Still you only make that mistake once.
