Re: 2 Elise S1s Strathaven

I was en route to Hamilton at the time - I usually go up the A71, past Sainsbury's then turn right onto Townhead street.

Re: 2 Elise S1s Strathaven

No actually I wasn't. I didn't see the blue S1 at all. Completely coincidental that we happened to be in the same place at the same time. :o

removing wax residue from mud guards

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to remove wax residue from mud guards?

I've been a bit over-enthusiastic polishing the S1 over the summer and have ended up getting wax on the mud guards which has left a white residue that doesn't want to come off. :?

The Evora looked fab. I rarely see other Lotus cars out my way so was rather excited to see two in the one night! :D

Car storage Lanarkshire/Glasgow area

Good evening all.

Can anyone recommend any good indoor storage facilities for cars in the Lanarkshire or Glasgow areas? I am getting a garage rebuild shortly and am looking for somewhere with good reviews to store my Elise.

Any help appreciated, thank you.
