A lightweight version would be nice but it may be to close to the 2-11 so it will never happen :(

43k is an awful lot, but as I have said before it offers better grip, steering feel, performance, handling, and to my eyes, looks than a ghey hardtop Boxster, sorry Cayman :D . And these days Loti are even pretty well built too. In that context it ain't so bad.

Agree with the jelly mould comments. But all S2's are the same.

When I went to pick the elise up from the service dept last week, I couldn't believe that my wife & I actually got in to a 10min conversation with Greame about how satisfyingly 'clunky' the doors sound when closing on the new cars now. The 3 of us were actually going round the showroom comparing clunks between new & 2yr old models... and then I was brought back to reality when I got in mine.

I have organs I could sell for one of those. Went into Lotus on Park Lane in London and tried to get a trade in price for their club sport or the Zonda in the window, still waiting for a reply.

I would think with cars like the Zonda, if you need to ask the price / trade in prices, you can't afford it... in the eyes of the dealers
