Scottish Elises

Nice to see the Elise - still love the colour

Was that a new toy you were washing, sitting next to the 159?

If so, nice trio you got there Chris

I was gonna toot, but you'll have not noticed my grey blandbox

Yup, the Elise hasn't moved much since last year and is looking a little sorry for itself with a flat rear tyre..

The Mitsubishi Carisma that Erica had was driving her nuts - not the thing to buy to replace a VX220, so it had to go.
We replaced it with a Panda 100HP as my love affair with Italian and British cars continues! Plan is that I'll commute in the 100HP whilst the 159 drops into family duties with Erica and the kiddo

The 100HP is epic in a way that small Fiat's do best, maybe a good thing I have a friendly mechanic!

Oh, and you need to update your sig

Hope the paintwork is still looking good?!? Speaking of which, looks like my Dad will be finishing up/retiring at some point this year

It's still near perfect, other than bits I managed to chip There is a tiny bit of bubbling on the rear clam, but I put that down to a combination of moisture in the used clam I bought, and the car unfortunately having to live outside for a winter after I had it painted.

I'll have to take it in at some point through the year before he finishes up. Last time I was in there was for a quote for having the Vx painted (due to paint bubbling from the facotry) but we later decided to sell as is.

Presuming they keep the place going, I hope those that it's passed on to have the eye for detail / drive to perfection that your dad does. If the painter that did my car (Paul I think?) is anything to go by, it should be in safe hands.
