    Elise Shop S1 LED headlights

    So my S1 has been sitting in my garage on a trickle charger. Since lockdown.... :oops: Cost of living / family pressures etc meant we needed to get monthly outgoings down. I needed to just close the garage door and try to not think about. 3 years later and enough was enough. Not having any legitimat...

    Re: Quick job while "staying at home" can someone give me a clue how to...

    Could you attach or e-mail some pics of your throttle cable from the locknuts at holding clamp beside throttle body and then cable going round the 'half moon' on the throttle body itself? Assuming you are running a standard Rover K series throttle body I could send you pics of my S1 throttle body a...

    Cool thanks I'll have a bash. It's a new cable fitted back end of last year by Craig at CMC.

    Quick job while "staying at home" can someone give me a clue how to...

    ...refit my throttle cable at the throttle body end, as it came loose on a drive back from Crieff (limped it home from Stonehaven with what felt like only mm's of travel left on the pedal) and only just getting round to looking at it now.

    Thanks in advance :cheers

    Yokohama tyres, Aberdeen?

    Hi folks,

    Need to replace the rears on my S1. Where in or around Aberdeen can I go to get yoko's fitted, at a good price? Black Circles were showing about £115 a corner.

    Cheers

    Diffuser and undertray

    Need to get my undertray repaired (one of the holes is now over large so the bolt holding it up is no longer doing anything, and the rattle at speed is bad!) Any idea where in Aberdeen I could get this done? Also just how different are S1 diffusers from later models? Much prefer the shape and finish...

    Anyone got an S1 undertray they don't need?

    Junks has one but basically impossible to send. Anyone up this neck of the woods have one they don't want? If not I'll just need to look at some sort of washer solution (got a hole getting bigger so one of the bolts no longer does anything, leading to a crazy loud thwack thwack thwack when above 40)
