Scottish Elises

Just wondered if anyone had driven 1 of these.

What is the difference between the SR3 and SR4?

My insurance are pr1cking me about, one minute they are fixing the car next minute they are giving me a pay out. I hope to have this sorted by next week.

Just looking shame i missed out on Tony Doe's car (yes that was me Tut was talking about)

Did shoomer not own a radical?

Scotty - crap that the insurance are playing silly buggers

Was speaking to Cammy yesterday about STUFF and I suggested he speak to you

Haven't driven an SR4 but drove an SR3.

Fantastic cars to drive but not to own and run.

Radical have a strong grip on the spares side of things and really know how to charge.

The cars are really difficult to look after and need loads of fettling to get the most out of them.

Tried out one of these last week http://www.junoracing.co.uk/

A bit sturdier than the radical and a proper car engine, unless you get the Honda one

Juno

I have had a couple of people asking me to drive in VdeV next year and the Juno is the favoured option.

Well made car and really easy to drive.

The VdeV car is the Cn one with the Honda engine we are all familiar with

SR4 has less downforce than the SR3 making it a bit like an elise to drive,just much faster.
SR4 is chain drive,so perhaps not so good on the road,unless you fit an oiler,not to much work.

Nice cars,bit fuggly,but as for running costs???

couldn't have done ff6 in a radical mate - or could you

and why not?

We should have some good footage from FF when/if Andy gets his finger out.

Ive always fancied an SR3, was seriously considering one prior to buying the Elise, but read a few reviews of the road going version and decided against it... One main reason being speed bumps in my area, i wouldnt be able to get the car out/into my housing estate, then theres pot holes etc etc, not worth the hassle
