And there it is! Even with a V/O ;). Excellent video, great sounding car (again). It's really comforting to have a calm voice to listen to with a slightly muted V6 rumbling in the back. The voice over was mainly in my left ear though, have the sound centered a bit more and you've got yourself a very, very solid car review.
Thanks Jack. You summed it up perfectly. Thanks for taking the time to say how awesome the driving experience is, because that's what the car was designed for. Good on you mate. Regards, Jim.
Bit late to the party on this review. In the last month one been lucky enough to park an exige 410 20th anniversary edition in my garage. It's broken 15 years of Porsche ownership (987 Cayman S, 997 Turbo, 991 GT3). The Lotus is more of a car than the other three put together. A real drivers car. Can't recommend the 410 highly enough.
I don't how Lotus is going to replace an Icon like the Exige? I'm afraid they are going to screw it up. I hope they take their time and make a great car to replace it.

Roof line doesn't quite reach my hips, my greyhounds can almost look over the roof top at eye level. Its harder to get out of than getting in. Basic rule is to sink the passenger side leg in toward the footwell, grab the wheel with your left hand, point you backside 90 deg to the door sill, support your balance with the right hand on the outside lower body side flare, drop your body ass backwards onto the seat below the door sill and turn the upper body 90 deg, face toward the steering wheel, hoist the right leg up over the door sill and into the footwell, close the door and buckle up. Simple. Head is the next-to-last body extremity to go in, the first extremity to poke out on exit.
That's why I bought an Elise OK it's the baby of the pack the S3 normally aspirated 1.6 but Lotus's ethos is strip every ounce of weight the light is right approach & then make the best Chassis in the business. Yep you're quite right they're positively telepathic the 410 will be a Rocket Ship compared t mine 6 seconds to 60mph not 3.3 seconds & on to 110mph over the speed limit. Awesome bitta kit.
Yay, I took a 410 Sport out at B&C. Thought I had better try a Lotus as I put deposits down on the Emira! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TUIF69pU_Ds.html It is mad isn't it? Haha Ade
