simon gleave Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 All I can say about the so called Eagle is what the hell do they want to call it after some old kit car............I'm sure there was a kit car of that name some time ago (in the 80's), can they not call it something starting with another letter?

Gold FFM mayevora Posted November 29, 2007 Gold FFM Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 Eagle is not the final name - Its the codename for the project at the moment. May end up Eagle of something completely differant. Quote Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk - that will teach us to keep mouth shut!

Right about the kit car Simon, VW based and a copy without the lifting canopy of the far superior Nova. Also here is another famous Eagle.

Guest Troy Halliday Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 not sure if anyone has seen this yet Eagle news from MJK/channel 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Blanchard Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 Cheers for that, intersting article. Also, good to know the Europa is getting another upgrade. Wish they'd strength the chassis and stick a V6 in the back of it (forget about it's GT aspirations and and reinvent it as Boxer S rival). Maybe then the press wouldn't give it such a hard time.

peter_england99 Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 Some of you may be interested. Posted on pistonheads: http://www.leftlanenews.com/lotus-supercar.html Rumour is that the car under the cover is the Eagle. Text seems to be refuring to the new Esprit. Jag. V8 + VW gearbox (DSG???).

Stuart Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 2+2, Great news, means that I can justify another Lotus, purely on practicality sake as a family car, although we haven't any kids yet. I suppose I should hold fire with an Elise for the wife in that case. Either way I'll be looking in anticipation towards this. Cheers, Stuart.
