Twin Turbo Lotus Carlton!
Says he had an old estate carlton but always wanted the lotus and he's found one exactly like this - mint with 30,000 miles on the clock for 19-20k. I dont know about these cars so i dont know if its a good deal but he seem's happy.
Him and a mate went to see it and he says it's like new. Only bad thing is an inch long scratch on the boot - what does everyone think of them?
the better thing about the one he wants is it has new bilstein shocks etc and 16/17 inch gold alloys (duno the make) - says it hugs the road and feels sooooo nice to drive - think he wants to push up the bhp.
 ???

I like the basic idea behind the car, but wouldn't have one as I don't like green cars.

Buy it and leave it standard. paying so much for such an old car thats fast anyway and then modifying it will ruin it IMO

i think the owner went for gold / green theme if you get me? and just incase your thinking - no its not the 24 karret type gold 
dad says it looks just as good as the alloys that came with them.

Good luck finding parts such as brakes for it 
End of the day I would rather plough that cash into a M5! Would be a far far better car for the cash
