Decided to give the Elan a run out. Had the roof off all day.

While out spotted yellow with green stripes S2 Elise :up from me :( from him, he had the roof on, :down Paah.

Pateley Bridge car park dark blue S2 51 plate did not see the owner, but roof on when he left. :down Paah.

Coming into Huddersfield red S2 04 plate :up from me and :up from him :woohoo result, but wait for it, he had the roof on :down oh dear.

Just got to Cumberworth who do I spy, the one and only Si English, OH NO
with the roof on. :down :down :down now I will wait for the excuses, not TinaE hair again is it.

Crackin run out, probably covered the best part of 200 miles I think, even though the weather was overcast most of the day.
Old Lotus don't die they get fixed and if it cannot be fixed with a BIG hammer then you have an electrical problem.

Si cannot afford the petrol for his Exige (tight A***) so he was driving Tina's Elise, forgot to mention that.
