It was a British company but is now owned by Proton, it’s the vaguest link to Europe I suppose!!

Ive seen it up close, but as of yet I havnt had a test drive.

I shall put it on my list of things to do.

I still havnt seen one on the road though. Perhaps I should buy one.

According to Brilliance the Coupe is on sale. I’ve yet to see one on the road though! There were certainly a lot at the factory. I’ve also seen an advert in a lift (elevator) for one

Wasn’t Lotus owned by the British before ? So doesn’t that make it European ?

So not really European at all then? As long as I know!!

The logo!

The shape is based on the Lotus badge and the contents on the Roewe (German lion)

I didn’t realise that Malaysia was in Europe (hence the name Europestar). What exactly is so European abou this company?
