top gear are somehow worse than Elon and actually deserved to get sued for that piece which made false claims about the car to fit their anti-electric narrative. I don't think Elon enjoyed being the target of brazen lies as much as he does making them. This was back when topgear brained chuds hated Elon because electric cars are woke unlike their emotional support trucks, now he has won them over by being an open nazi but they still won't buy his cars mostly.
I don't mean that they bought entire cars and took the gasoline powertrain out. But literally everything besides the drivetrain is Lotus. Tesla didn't build the physical car
The Tesla Roadster is an electric-converted Lotus

Unfortunately not. And he got so mad at top gear for criticizing it he sued BBC multiple times.
Don't think he enjoyed them showing the non electric version out performing it
Actually I think that's exactly how it went. He bought Tesla from a couple of other guys.

i thought they bought frames from lotus, rather than converting in the usual sense
