VX & Lotus

[hertsbiker]

hi all, haven't posted a lot in here before, but having got me a VX as fun car for a while... how do you Loti people feel about this Loutus built Vauxhall? I've been looking at Lotus stuff for a while, and it seems to me like it's the same car with a new body on top.. and a storming motor for the dosh. But I got to admit that the Exige seems to corner better, even if it can't quite get away!

Well, hope to be on good terms with you people, even if my car is from the "wrong side of the fence" (tracks).

Maybe see you sometime at a Lotus meet? you tell me if it's ok?

Hi Carl,

Welcome to the fold! VX owners have always been made very welcome at the meets I've been to.
Are you going to track it?

i occasionally hang out on SELOC, and have been known to go for a spin or two with a VXT.....

Hi Carl

Unlike some Elise owners I have no problem with the VX and always wave when I see them.

Great cars and the Turbo looks awesome but I just preferred the looks of the Elise.

Have fun.

hello all!
sounds like I need to go to a meet then.
Track: hmmm. Having a lot of fun on road right now, but might give it a go if the insurance is ok about it. Paid too much out so far to risk a total loss!
I wave to Lotus drivers, they wave back. Great stuff.

Yep nowt wrong with VX's - always give 'em a flash/wave - must admit at first wasn't sure on styling - having now seen quite a few am warming to them, altho' some of colours are a bit on the loud side at end of day its made by Lotus - say no more - am thinking of having a test drive soon.

Looking at this month's EVO - I must admit I'm thinking of defecting when this VX Sprint comes along...
