Hi Guys,

Its took me sometime to finally find my way back home, but after an epic journey yesterday and the help of everyone of you guys that Im now the owner of my very own Elise! have waited on this day for such a long long time

Can honestly say I never thought id get there, and now im bursting at the seems to be able to enjoy and love my new car as much as ive enjoyed the journey over the years with alot of you guys.

Will be looking forward to meeting up and joining you on as many road runs and track days as possible this summer....go easy on me, I am still just a very little young lady and need gentle handling

I trust Im in good hands

Congratulations Pauline. You'll never stop smiling now.

Karen

Well, not until the head gasket goes or the toe link snaps and chucks you into the hedge

Congratulations!

Cheers,
Robin

Well done - glad you have joined the ranks of Lotus ownership after so long helping us out in the past at MMC. Your car looks a great colour, I very neary bought one that colour a few years ago but went for aubergine instead to keep Ann happy. Keith

Hi Karen,

glad to be joining the ranks of what very few ladies we have....hope to see you around soon

Robin - the first time it brakes down Im gonna be sat at the side of the road or in a hedge pissin myself laughing thinking....pauline, you should have bloody knew better I have already sorted out my AA parts and breakdown cover oooo the joys!

Keith thanks - i fell in love with it when i got there - originally headed south and looked at a red one first but this ones stole the show....a very happy wee bunny x

Nice one Pauline

You rampant little S_E owner.

So which one did you buy Pauline?

tut

lol rampant, tut... please....behave

Went for the Laser blue one, its an 03 with 37k on the clock..... took Ali down with me and he went over both of them with a fine tooth comb, red one was a nice car hadnt had the radiator done and they couldnt give me reciepts for the cam belt change...just the stamp in the book but i couldt get anyone at the garage to confirm it...Ali was pretty certain it hadnt been done, had a couple of little niggles but nothing too serious, fan, heater controlls jammed, blocks on steering needing doing and mix match of tyres....plus it was an ex lotus factory car but showing 6 owners so Ali convinced me not to go just on looks and colour.

The Laser one was 2 years newer, half the miles and its absolutly pristine condition. Had the aluminum radiator put on, upgraded suspension dont know what it is...Ali did, brake hoses, full black leather spec, upgraded sounds (cos you know I will want to sing to you as we go around) hard top, and tip top service history inside out...we couldnt find a fault on it, Ali took it to bits so think have managed to get a good one

She says....and hopes AA cover straight on it xx

Great result Pauline, and many kudos to Ali for going down with you and checking the car out.

All you need to do now is drive it and enjoy it.

tut

Congrats on the purchase, sounds like a cracker.

Well done Pauline, sounds like you really ( Ali included ) checked everything and as Robin says hope everything goes well for you

Well done Pauline , its only taken you 10 years

Stu

tut - Yeah hat goes off to Ali, what an absolute star! would be lost without guys like you by my side

See you soon me fav old mucker x
