Elise for me, it looks great.

The others look a bit too Lambo for me.

A nice range of cars and I'm sure some of them will sell in great numbers. Don't like the 4 door and the potential prices, judging by the Evora, could be frightening.

Time will tell. Elise for me too I think :)

I think they are all fab!:hurray: But the four door gets top spot! I so hope this works for Lotus.
There is however a sixth model to come.......

Time will tell :) I hope they are hugely successful and I'd be proud to own any of them.......apart from that last one Russ. That, my friend, is fucking awful.

Now ive let off steam!:D I can add a better reply Stu, Yes i agree that the baby Lotus is not the best looking, But alas its something all the big sports car manufacturers are having to do just to get their average CO2 ratings down to comply with the future EU directives. I think its a clever move bringing out a baby hybrid as this will offset/ and allow the higher yummy v8 models. I also think its a far better effort than Astons poor re-badged Toyota iQ though?
