Anyone know what's going on? Talk on turboesprit of Arnie being fired, then modified to be a re-organization with Arnie in a different role. We want the...
Dose anyone have a diagram how to remove the window motor on 89MY Esprit. I need to remove it and rebuild it. Thank you in advance Scott Red 89 Esprit ...
Arnie Johnson was removed (fired) as president of Group Lotus PLC by Duke Hale. This ended a 33 year career with Lotus for Arnie, who is considered to be the...
Bob, Sadly, I heard this Friday and am speechless! Lotus really screwed up in hiring Hale, how long before they realize the mistake, unfortunately Arnie won't...
If this is correct, it really stinks. Arnie is the reason we're now getting the Elise, and he has basically kept Lotus alive by trying to keep their U.S....
This tops it all... just when LCU is on the brink of real success, the idiots in the home office remove the mainstay of their US operation. A sad day indeed, ...
Ron, I remember you, aren't you the disgruntled former Lotus Ltd website manager, got ticked off and took away all his marbles? So I guess that means we won't...
Hello Chris, I was keeping Ron's message off the list until we could figure out what to do with it. By forwarding it to the list, you got it posted to...
I wonder what the appropriate course of action would be. Sadly, cancelling Elise deposits would be a pointless gesture, and keep the cars out of the hands of...
What about expressing our sentiments to Group Lotus' PR (Public Relations) firm? Perhaps gather a weekly log of comments, and forward it to them? --ken ...
... =================================================== We should write to everyone (Hale is a waste of time but it never hurts to contact all possible...
Speaking as a current Lotus Ltd. member I should think that perhaps the only legitimate way to pursue such a course would be for you to rejoin Lotus Ltd. and...
How about honoring Arnie with some special recognition and "thank you" awards at both the WCLM and LOG this year? I believe it would be gratifying to Arnie....
... ================================================= That goes back to my comment that whatever action the clubs took would have to be weighed against the ...
Chris, I love you man. Anybody who knows Arnie knows what a special person he is. He gave his heart and sole to Lotus. These new guys are really special, to...
Fellow Lotus Nuts, When the new 2002 Esprit was introduced, I happened to be in Atlanta several months after the announcement and I wondered if any on the new...
Recently, someone posted private e-mail from someone concerning the reported firing of Arnie Johnson. Let me remind you that one of the long-standing rules of...
... Thanks for sharing that experience Eddie. It matches similar experiences we've heard from Britain and other markets where the Elise has been sold: it...
Say goodbye to those days, not going to happen at the NEW LOTUS, if you're even allowed in the building now! :( Chris On Sun, 2 May 2004 20:46:21 -0700 (PDT),...
Alan and all, Since I'm the offending poster I ask: How am I supposed to know if someone's banned, the particular email you site came to me with BOTH my email...
... Yes I can see how this could be interpreted as a gray area, especially if all the details of the way the lists are run are not known. Something perhaps...
Foster, I don't care if LCU is sponsoring WCLM and/or LOG 100% - that's no reason not to honour a person who has done so much for the marque and the clubs over...
Chris, I hope you've seen Alan's messages and have calmed down a bit? When I saw your post, and in particular the message you responded to, I couldn't...
I agree with Steve 100%. What Arnie has done for Lotus, Ltd. and for me cannot be measured in dollars. My friendship does not come that cheaply. Phil...
... Hi Steve, Ron sent his missive to the list and cc'ed Chris. Chris replied to both Ron and the list, which caused Ron's message to in essence get forwarded...
As most people guessed, my reference to third-party message postings involved Chris Smith and Ron Bennett. After looking through the messages and the admin...
... I didn't say not to do so - I just brought up a point that each club might take into consideration when considering the idea. It is not an easy decision...
