Thre was talk of the new Europa being there.

However it's too cold for me, heading for Portugal instead.

I'm working on the fitup at the Geneva Motorshow and I saw the new Europa S on the Lotus stand. I'll swing bay on press day (Tuesday) and take some pictures if anyone is interested.

I thought worse thoughts.....

The front end has over tones of Hyundi Coupe.

I'm not too keen on the headlight treatment, although I think it does look quite good from the rear. I read in a car magazine yesterday that there is going to be a new Esprit in 2007. That should be interesting, bet it won't look anywhere near as good as the old one though

Nice... but at 6ft2 and built like a rugby player I'm not sure I'll ever be able to judge this cars merits!

That said, and this may be because I'm a child of the 70's but a Lotus really should have pop up headlights!

Is it faithful to the principles of the original Europa? I prefer the Banks Europas! http://www.banks-europa.co.uk/index.php
