A late reply regarding the Lotus 101 Road Bike. I bought one in 1994 for a small community bike shop that I ran but it didn't sell (I think I really only got it for myself). It follows on from the 1992 Olympics Lotus 108 & the Lotus 110 road bike.
I kept it wrapped in a large polythene bag in my house for nearly 30 years, it was my size but I couldn't bring myself to use it.
Still in perfect, new condition I sold it on Gumtree not long ago.
It was a beautiful bike with a full Campagnolo Chorus 8 speed group set including the hubs.
At least I still have the catalogue which shows it was a British Eagle product from Newtown Cycle works in Wales.
