I think hard top looks great on, too. But mine is also coming off this week! Some of the removal time for me tends to be spent wiping down the vinyl part of the soft case. There's usually a funky aroma emanating from it after it's been folded up in storage for a while.
I believe 'Funky Aroma' is the official name for the 'Essence of Hardtop Cover'!

Sometimes, I'm lazy.  It only takes, maybe, 30-40 minutes to remove or install the hard top from the Elise, and I LOVE the looks of it on the car!  In my defense, it has rained a lot this year, and almost always on weekends.  
Also, I've been away several weekends, this month.  BUT... with a good weather forecast for the upcoming weekend, I decided I needed to remove the hardtop...  Another reason I hesitated to remove the top is, I never want to store it dirty, so...  
I did a full car wash this past weekend.  

Looking forward to Katie's this Saturday!

Wow, what a variety!
And that's a cool pano-style photo with everyone spaced out in the parking spaces like that.
And I'm glad that the Countach has the "good" front (vs. the add-on bumper).

Lotus reveals record-breaking order books for Eletre and Emira

17,000 orders for the SUV and sports car placed worldwide as the company looks to bounce back from heavy losses

Lotus has confirmed that the first half of 2023 has been a record-breaker for sales, with around 17,000 orders placed for the new Eletre SUV and the Emira sports car.

Okay, so the eagle-eyed among you will point out that we already knew this, but the positive noises are worth hearing all the same.

The Emira was launched in 2022 and 2,200 examples have been built in the UK this year, a 381 per cent increase. Crikey, no wonder order books are full for the next two years.

And deliveries of the Eletre began in China at the end of March, with Lotus’ first electric car (we’re still waiting on the Evija, harumph) expected to arrive in Europe in a few weeks’ time.
