Hi,

Does anyone know what the Lotus Font is, or something similar? That's the font used for car names, not the Lotus emblem. :)

Thanks.

Owen.

The current style, for Evora and the new model range. Something close will do that I can use if the Lotus is a licensed font.

I think you will tend to find they are custom fonts, I have looked for a long time as I wanted to cut some stickers with my vinyl cutter. You can usually find something close but not 100% correct.

I've got some that are close, so might have to use them. I'll have a good look tonight to see if I can find better. Thanks for the link Bibs.

I was looking in to this myself today and emailed Jeremy, from Blake and Jeremy and the YoLotus t-shirt fame and he actually used Georgia if you can believe it and stretched it a bit. I also noticed Lotus is inconsistent with their usage.

I think I found it. Looks to be one of the extra wide versions of URW Antique: http://www.myfonts.c...ts/urw/antiqua/
