The Dino

                                                                              

One day I'll actually finish  all of the jobs pending on this beautiful machine - trouble is that it worked first time "out of the box" and I just keep using it!    (click on the thumbnails for a better view)  (by the bye, if the block on the right is just plain grey, you're not running java!) (also, for the best pics, uncheck the "Enable Automatic Image Resizing" under Tools\Internet Options\Advanced\sub head 'Multimedia' )

This is my 'wallpaper' - a very early attempt with graphic manipulation.

The QED  built Lotus Twin-Cam which gives the 'toy' performance on a par with the original Dino

What I would call "a nice pair"

Well, it was like this, I parked next to the red one - then the rest parked next to me!  (the "Dino" at the Ferrari owners club meeting - Castle Combe 1986)

To all those Volvo drivers that hate small sports cars & to all those sports car drivers that hate Volvos - I actually like them both!  Next time you start swearing - think on -  he (or she) may have one at home!

After the 2001 Lotus meet at Castle Combe I became aware that there were many people who didn't know the car so I produced this flyer to sit on the dashboard top to try and explain exactly what the beast is!
