\"\"<\/a>The home page opens with a shifting montage of historic Lotus photographs, and on the left is a simple hierarchy of links to the site\u2019s various elements. Heading the list is \u201cThe Cars\u201d which takes you to a log of the various Lotus type numbers from 1 to 69 with basic information about each model. There\u2019s also a link to Lotus History, where the firm\u2019s origins and early growth are detailed.<\/p>\n

Next on the main menu is a \u201cNews\/Events\u201d with listings of various track days, trials and other events of interest to owners, while \u201cThe Magazine\u201d leads to information about Historic Lotus issues current and archival. \u201cMembership\u201d tells you how to join the register, and \u201cAbout\/Contact,\u201d \u201cVideos\/Links\u201d and \u201cFor Sale\u201d are all fairly self-explanatory.
