I knew I felt a deep passion for Lotus, though. One day I was driving my Elise through Bolzano when I saw an Esprit (very rare in Italy) and could not contain my excitement. The driver of that car must have thought I was mad as I was getting so animated about seeing him!\u201d<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/elisasilver.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/elisasilver.jpg\" alt=\"Elisa Artioli now\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>Just over two decades on from moving away from Norfolk, Elisa Artioli is now realising how well-regarded she is in the Lotus fanbase, and is rightly very proud of her unique claim to fame. She is actively part of the Lotus culture and still drives that series 1 Elise as an everyday car around her hometown of Berlin, where she works for an architecture business.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Lotus community is so nice and friendly, and really kind. I\u2019m proud of my heritage but not trying to make money out of it or anything, just happy to share my story \u2013 I\u2019m just surprised anyone else cares!\u201d<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/35420627_217191299104901_7282503777813266432_n.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/35420627_217191299104901_7282503777813266432_n.jpg\" alt=\"Elisa Artioli Elise in Berlin\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>Whilst searching for a series 1 Elise for an upcoming project for Influx, I chatted to Elisa about perhaps using her silver car. Being based in Germany, it was a tricky thing for her to arrange. However, the lure of a trip back to Norfolk was enticing enough for her to suggest an alternative. An acquaintance of hers owns a very rare (one of three) carbon-fibre bodied Elise Sport 190, within the vicinity of the location required.<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/DSCN2305.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/DSCN2305.jpg\" alt=\"Carbon Fibre Elise Sport 190 Elisa Artioli\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>In a heartbeat, she\u2019d arranged with the owner to borrow that incredible car and join us in Norwich, Norfolk. (You\u2019ll need to wait and see what we used that car for\u2026)<\/p>\n<p>Keen to make sure her trip to the UK (and in particular, Norfolk) was worthwhile, I spoke with the Elan PR team responsible for the brilliant <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lotusdrivingacademy.com\/\">Lotus Driving Academy<\/a> (LDA) which is based at the Lotus test track in Hethel, Norfolk.<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/DSCN22841.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/DSCN22841.jpg\" alt=\"Lotus Driving Academy Elise\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>Sensing a great chance to show Elisa just how far the cars bearing her name had come over the years, Elan and LDA arranged for her to try out a pair of new Lotus cars (both left-hand drive to make sure she comfortable) an Evora 410 GT and an Exige 410 Sport \u2013 a stunningly quick car on track, and one still bearing a refined version of the type 111 chassis upon which the Elise was first based.<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/DSCN2277.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/DSCN2277.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>Whilst at Hethel, of course, it seemed apt for Lotus Cars to welcome Elisa back too. She had lived nearby when she was much younger but had very little memory of the place, although a lot of the Lotus team present knew her family very well. They reminisced about the famous overhead shot of the Lotus logo, pointing out where they were stood in that great human collage, sat behind the iconic red Elise which Elisa herself had often posed with in the early days.<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/11325344_1637318136535532_721396387_n.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/11325344_1637318136535532_721396387_n.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>As the memories came flooding in, and whilst surrounded by the tasty new cars used in the Driving Academy, Lotus stalwart Dave Minter appeared, driving the very same red Elise used in those iconic images. Minter himself owns the car now.<\/p>\n<p>Elisa was, understandably, slightly taken aback at the sight of that very vehicle, and delighted in sitting behind the wheel once more, the wheel of a car that now had over 120k miles (approaching 200k km) on the odometer.<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/DSCN22701.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/DSCN22701.jpg\" alt=\"Elisa Artioli with Dave Minter Elise\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/DSCN2273.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/DSCN2273.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>Finally, it was time to take to the Hethel track for the first time in her life in that pair of new LDA cars. On a hot dry Norfolk Day conditions were perfect for Elisa to really explore the cars&#8217; limits.<\/p>\n<p>After having a chance to drive around the track with no other vehicles on the hallowed tarmac, the Lotus driving instructors then gave Elisa a true thrill ride too, showing her what these two 410-spec Lotuses could really do. Lots of noise, smoke and smiles followed, and left Elisa with a truly amazing day to remember.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If there\u2019s a better way to treat a homecoming icon, I&#8217;d be surprised. <\/strong><\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/DSCN2295.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/DSCN2295.jpg\" alt=\"Elisa Artioli at Hethel\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>Find Elisa Artioli&#8217;s latest updates and adventures via her social media &#8211; on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/iamlotuselise\/\">Instagram<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/iamlotuselise\">Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the mid-&#8217;90s Lotus launched a car that turned the company around.
