    Here is another cheap Lotus, a Europa even.

    Plural. Hmm.....

    So Lotuses or Loti.

    However, Chapman evidently preferred Lotus as the plural.

    Fish, deer, Lotus.... yep, makes sense to me.

    Yet again, I'm astonished by how cheaply cool, old cars sell for in America.

    There's a similar Europa (Renault-engined) for sale locally to me, (Australia), and the guy is asking $27K. And that price is considered completely reasonable.

    One day I'll go over there and bring something back with me .

    I picked up a set of wheels for that car at Carlisle a few weeks ago. Going to use them on a Spitfire, though.
