    There's a lot of rare Lotuses in there Gauss. Do you think DRB-Hicom are clearing out the museum prior to liquidation?

    Maybe, but on the other hand, Lotus is taking the center stage as the chosen marque at the 2012 Goodwood Festival of Speed, so this auction was probably planned from the beginning. yes In any way, this is little money compared to the debt Lotus is currently in.

    Let's hope so. Maybe they're just trying to recover some of Dany Bahar's expenses.
