Scottish Elises

Modena Scotland wrote:No123 out of 127. Bought it from Liverpool privately. I plan to get RiF aeroscreen and carbon fibre half doors.

I'm with Dave 77 on this - i have screen and doors on most of the time,but when i borrowed his aero for a few days the thing i liked most was the elbow room - try it without them first.

Great looking car, remember - Add Lightness ! (ditch the fire extinguisher for a start) - and saunter over to Jock 7's when you have the chance.

Last week was p**sing down when i went to go to work - "thinks - i'll take the crappy old Carina and not the 7" - Wouldn't start would It? Went back to the flat - got the waterproofs,went round the back of the house to see the 7 sitting there with no tonneau on it !! Was like driving in a bath going...

Interesting reading - safety cameras increase accidents !

Welcome aboard - i haven't got an Elise either !

OK OK - picked him up wrong.

Robin it's a 1600 and the budget could be stretched to a couple of thousand at most.

Pm me and we can discuss ??

B**ger - now you've got me looking on Pistonheads !

It's a 1600 Supersport with probably around 140 bhp (standard is 135,but it's got the 4-1 exhaust).

I'm not sure i want to sell,but if you want to see it Robin you're more than welcome.

It's currently got a cracked windscreen since i hit a f**king stupid pigeon on Saturday.

I may be looking to get a little bit more grunt for the 7 - are there any good reliable K-series experts - preferably in and around Aberdeen or Central Belt in Scotland - i don't want to go as far as Dave Andrews.

Cheers

Tony.

AFAIK you can only get plug in boards for Panasonic Monitors (ie the professional range with no TV tuner) - not for their televisions. Just looked at a picture of a V+ box on Wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Tvdrive_rear.jpg And it's got component video out - don't know if this is the ...

I posted on here a while ago (i can't find the thread or i'd update it) and a partial conclusion was that a Seven wouldn't be safe in an accident (which i disputed). I now have some evidence !

Driver was undamaged (can't say the same for the car).

Can we ban Tut for mentioning that event on a Scottish forum please ?

No such thing as an unsafe road !! - only bad driving

Tut with shoes on whatever next ??

Congratulations - hope you have many more.

Book available now also - has some extra info that's not in the series
