Does that mean your over Laura????

Oops - single girl -

should have read that better - stupid me .... or was it just wishful thinking.

only joking.

Dave - my offer of a night out still stands for the 21st - can't promise a single female with an Elise but can promise a single girl who loves Elises

Yes I'm over Laura...... mutter mutter...... bunch of barstewards..!!!

Can't make the 21st unfortunately..... sisters wedding and all that.... although her fiance did say he'd understand if I had to leave early when I mentioned your offer of a night out involving BJ's

I don't know a simple newbie hello quickly turns into "find DDTB a date"

jeesh

To be fair, "what tools do I need for a gearbox swap" rapidly becomes "find DDtB a date" in this place.....

And just to bring it right back on topic.

Hello to all, i am interested in either an elise or VX. Anyone know any s135's of 111s's for sale?

Post by **Shug** » Wed Apr 12, 2006 9:51 am

To be honest, Lee's was the only 135 I've seen for sale up here in a while - can't remember any 111s either... I think there's a good proportion trading in against the current Lotus finance deals, to avoid the hassle of selling.

Why lumping in VX with 135? - very different cars. If you're thinking VX, you should also give some S2's a gander. Figure out what it is you want the car for and then we can point you in the direction of what's best - an S1 135 and a VX220 are about the polar opposite of the Elise lineage... (that's not a dig at VX's BTW)

TBH, you're best bet will be trawling PH and the like and posting queries about the cars on here - we'll do what we can.

Not wishing to get a flaming, my preference would probably be for a VX (on my budget anyway), but gf is quite insistent on an elise, so the compromise is the S135 and 111s. Not actually been in a S135, but have been in a standard elise and a 111s and preferred the 111s out of the two. It is a weekend toy, so comfort is not overly important, just something i can enjoy hooning around the b roads in. And yes, i have been in a VX as well (both turbo and NA).

Yep, hourly trawls on pistonheads/autotrader/ebay etc etc do occur, and will be posting up anything i see for opinions...........

You won't get much of a flaming, just a bit of mild banter about the Griffin on the bonnet...

You'll still love it!

The only problem my g/f has with my Liz (Apart form the fact she likes it more than her MX-5 but won't admit it

) is she can't comfotably sit in the pax seat and reach the footrest if she has trainers on and she's not that short.
