what car

Post by microsoft excel »

As I'm new to Lotus Cars and this forum, could anyone tell me what trim I should expect to have on my car.
It is Calypso Red and has Black and Gold Badges and Gold wheels.
The badges are not the round ones but are triangular in shape.
Inside the trim is Gold (leather?) with pinky, purple, red velour inlay.
I can e-mail pics if needed, or you want to have a laugh, but I'm getting used to it now.
It's the child only a mother could love.
The car reg. is D494 POV, if any of you can give me any info. about this car however good or bad it will be appreciated.

I'm just down the road from you if you would like to have at look at my (less than perfect!) car. Mine is a "C" reg SE. The interior trim sounds right, not sure about the gold wheels. My wheels have been sprayed BRG to match the body colour. This was a factory option, cost the first owner £100 according to the sales invoice.
