Yet another "anyone know this car thread"...

Post by Stonefly » Thu Nov 19, 2009 9:04 pm

As the title says really...

We're on the hunt for our (mine really) first Elise and have spotted these 111S' on PistonHeads/Murray Motors (and as we're off up to Ed in a couple of weeks we thought it best to ask around here before we go for a test drive - as I know we'll just end up buying the first one we get in... if we're not prepared)

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1356838.htm
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1313754.htm

Does anyone recognise or know anything about either of these cars?
And what's Murray Motors like?

Equally if anyone wants to point me in the direction of any other 'recommended' Elises I'd be most grateful.

Thanking you all muchly :D

There is another 111S in our Classified section that is roughly same spec with hardtop for three grand less that would be worth a look/haggle

Right not been about for a while due to work etc.
Sorry I haven't replied sooner!!!

So how much would be reasonable for a well looked after 111S?
With and without the usual mods - such as exhaust, suspension etc

Oh and the Purple one has been sold!
