Lotus Elite of 007

[Gambit]

It was reveled yesterday. I saw it in a all the famous Car Magazines like Car Magazine& Autocar. The Concept Lotus Elite which you will see The upcoming Paries Car Show. The new Lotus is 4 seater with a V8 engine. It will go in prodution in 2012.

We all remembered Roger Moore era he drove 2 Lotus Esprit in The Spy Who Love Me & For your Eyes only. This Lotus might Suit 007. To replace his wrecked Aston Martin.

It's a nice car. Do Aston Martin still have an active contract with EON?

This goes back to that 2000 3 film deal Ford made with them when they owned A.M.,Volvo and Jaguar The last film QoS was the last one of that contract,Of course Ford no longer owns A.M.,Volvo or Jaguar, But considering the long relationship A.M has with EON they will probably be back with some deal as it was said to have helped increase their overall sales. It would be nice to see the return of the Lotus for a film or two especially a white one like the one above thats sharp looking...............

Well I could be couple days late if you do read the Car Magazine, Autocar or the Paris Motor Show. You may notice a 5 more new Lotus has be done. Lotus new Esprit which was before 007 drove in 2 Bond movies,which can return, new Elan but only good as off Duty car, Elise also good as off Duty car,The Lotus City car concept which fit for Bond girl & Miss Moneypenny, & now the interesting Lotus which a limo called Eterne which will challeng Rapide,Panemera,Lexus 430 & all the other Luxuary brands. If you like you can choose for 007 beside the Elite, only when 007 may not get an Aston again.
