Talk:Lotus Eleven

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In reference to the derivation of the Lotus Eleven, my understanding of the history (according to Peter Ross) is that the Eleven was produced and marketed first (before the Seven was ever conceived), and the Seven was derived as a lower-cost club racer from the more expensive-to-produce Eleven. --Tom Bartlett 17:48, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Hmm, I think you are right (I also always thought the 7 was based on the 11), but I cannot find any hard references for that at the moment...I asked User:Liftarn, who made the edit to the article, if he can provide a reference -- Ferkelparade π 13:12, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
Yes, my fault. The 7 was based on the 11. I must have thought about the 11 inspired cars based on the Locost chassis or something. For a reference see www.se7enup.hopto.org/se7enup/default.asp?id=2&mnu=2 // Liftarn
