Looking for an Elise... which one?

[th4neuk]

My roof leaks a bit but then it is a bit buggered. Still bugger all to leak on so it don't really matter.

I didn't go out with the intention of getting a S160 but can confirm they are fun.

A standard S1 with a few tweaks though isn't that far behind anyway and are a bit cheaper than the 'special' ones.

Have a look at a few and try and drive a couple first so you can see how they go.

Good choice, the S2 didn't even make the evo top 100 handling cars unlike the S1 with a great showing from all variants

Er, I think the listing at number 19 was for "Lotus Elise". The fact that only the data for an S1 was quoted is neither here nor there (see also E-Type, VX220 entries). Give me strength...

Hi Graeme, this is all firmly tongue in cheek you know we S1 owners like to have a little dig at you sharp edged types and this is NYLOC we'll have no trouble here

Can't have you lumped with the VX's with the wrong sized wheels and heavy engines now can we you can come in the S1 entry

Matt had to say that, otherwise I'd have reminded him about the last Elvington airfield day we did when he couldn't keep up with me in the twisties

S1 111s - next question - really its the best variant by some margin IMHO, chuck on LSS or Nitrons and its a trackday wizard

I agree, I tried several types but liked the 111S the best - the engine and gearbox combo work very well together.
