Lotus to re-enter re-engineering business?

[nickthaskater]

Lotus is considering proposals to to re-engineer cars from other automakers as it did as many as forty years ago with the Ford Lotus Cortina, Talbot Lotus Sunbeam and Vauxhall Lotus Carlton, according to the U.K.'s Eastern Daily Press. Other British media reports suggest the 2007 Ford Mondeo or Opel Vectra could be possible targets. The aim would be to create vehicles akin to the Audi "S" line or BMW "M" series.

Carlton redux anyone?
