[Rovernet] Is anybody out there?

[Bob Harris]

We never had a Rover and a Lotus at same time, but we’ve had two Rovers and three Lotus.

Lotus is the plural.   Lotus once put out a document declaring other forms as horrible.

And theis is the possessive:    Lotus’

Not Lotus’s.   That can not be pronounced.

What I really want to know is: What is the plural of Lotus?     Loti?   Lotuses?

Hi Bob,
    Come on Bob, jump back in, the water is fine and its never too late to go back to a Rover 😎. I did after 37 years (1967 P6 TC2000 plus a 1966 P5 3litre). They are unique and obviously the passion still runs in your blood, plus there are several good Rovers looking for a home.
   There are a few SD1's running around!
Cheers,
Gord

I still read posts here, even though my time of Rover ownership is decades past.  An 1980 SD1, first car I ever bought with my own money after starting my career as a Dentist.  40 years later I’ve had three Lotus including a well tracked Elise, a Bentley Continental GT Speed, two McLaren, the list goes on.

But gosh I loved that Rover.  I tried so hard to keep it going including another car for parts.  When we went to Goodwood Festival of Speed there was not one Rover SD1 on the grounds that we could find over four days.  Made me feel better in a way, they could not keep them moving over there much less a kid in the hills of North Carolina way back then.

But I still look back to the joy of ownership that car brought to me and my pals.  And I really appreciate that there are still people who bear an interest and respect for these cars.

Bob
