as usual.

Whats made it worse as per usual is some cars had faults and now look at the reputation it has.

Even worse the tuning peopel that have sprung up for it have made the engines even less reliable. Lotus done it themselves.

I have a link somewhere that states a few good things.

The engines good and is really light, if you have ever tried to lift a metro/mini A series then lift a K series, then you will know what I mean. The k series you can pick up and throw, a series, sort of drag it about a bit.
