Read about it the other day.

The most poweful Elise yet with much better pulling power than petrol, but no plans to put it into production in the foreseeable future.

Thought it sounded rather good, wouldnt mind trying it out. Not long till the black gold runs out, the thought of electric engines scare me :?

A elise that runs on alcohol

Would be fitting in many respects for some here.

It would run well in the evening and get faster overnight but would then be a right bastid to start in the morning....
