Scottish Elises

Outside the chippy in Causewayhead. Had a few scruineering sticker on the screen like it's done a few trackdays. Think i saw 135r stickers on the side too

Hi Gordon, that was me. And I've finally been forced out of lurking mode in order to reply.

You're right - it is a 135R but it's fitted with standard elise alloys with Yoko 039s ( and a hardtop ) for winter. Hope to get the OZ / 048 combo re-fitted soon.

I really wasn't in the chippy - I'm quite fat enough already - I was in my second home ( Corrieri's cafe ) drinking coffee with Pete Corrieri who co-incidently also owns a blue 135R and frequents Knockhill on a regular basis.

Kevin

We know Pete.

Cheers,
Ali

I know you do Ali

I'm sure i've seen the car there a few times before. I dont think i've met Pete though . Have you been on a few trackdays with it then?? I assume so with the stickers on the screen.

Ah, ha! Just figured out it's Kevin of Caterham fame.

Small world... tell Peter Corrieri that my old man says hi, they were at school together (same year)!

Hi Ali - yes it's me

Hi j ( sorry don't know your first name ) - I was also in the same year at school so I reckon we must be talking about Jamie If so, as well as being in the same class at school we lived in the same place in Edinburgh as first year students. I seem to remember your mum having a very nice MG Midget at the time. If so say hi to them both

Yes that would have been Mum, think thats why me and my wee brother don't get grief about buying daft cars as Mum was the same at our age! Also what would have been the first MG of dozens they had until recently.... My old man drove my S1 once I think and didnt like it, and has yet to try the Exige (I might not get it back if he has a shot!)

He has just been telling me about your £7 a week rented room in Edinburgh from a Mrs Jamieson or something!
