    I'm a car guy. A Lotus owner.

    We get used to calling a flatbed tow or the Lotus shop.

    I needed the kind of help that would get my destroyed Lotus to the shop as quickly as possible. Steve got me towed, got me a rental, made me feel like someone was taking really good care of me.

    The police took a report. Swell.

    Glad you're okay. That's all that's really important. Cars, even the nicest ones, are only steel and leather (or in the case of the Elise extruded aluminum and composite fiberglass). They can be replaced. Good luck with the new Lotus whether it's an Exige or an Evora. Those farmers in Hethel really do make special cars.

    The other driver took off and left me spinning into someone's yard.

    I'll never know if he meant to shove me or did it by accident but he definitely did it and he definitely didn't stop.

    Anyway, life goes on.

    I'm looking for another Lotus...

    and I now work at Specialty Car Craft.

    Car heaven. I love this place.
