A couple days ago I posted that if I had
my choice of one car it would be the Maserati Birdcage.
OK, I lied. I would also want a Lotus 18. It doesn't have to be
the Formula Junior version it could even be the Formula 1 model, and it could even
be the sports car version, the Lotus 23.

It ain't very pretty. There are now faster cars in its class,
But I still want one. This car was a keystone car in the history of Lotus Cars.
It was the first rear engine race car produced by Lotus and it changed the
company into a first-class world power in racing.
