Hi renmure, great minds think alike! I had to have a bright colour, its like a little ball of sunshine in the grey scottish weather! Looks like you have a few other toys in your playbox!!

Re: Just bought an Elise
Its got a standard exhaust, the only extra I have coming for it is a new hard top. I would like to get a set of forged wheels in black, but my financial advisor (the wife) may put a stop to that, for the moment anyway!

Hi Stu
Welcome along just up the road from you, halfway up the walk in a Silver S1

Re: Just bought an Elise
I'm down at the foot, Elise is hidden away in a garage tho! I'll keep an eye out for you when I'm back, although I found out this week that I'm going to be in Norway for a while yetJacobite wrote:Hi Stu

Hei hei
Hvordan gaar det?
I am on your side of town too, but then there are loads of folk in Edinburgh here it seems.
I hope the roads have improved since the late 90's, when I used to work out there. Studded winter tyres are amazing in the winter, but leave the roads in a state after Easter - I expect all those rutted roads will be great for tramlining or aquaplaning, if you're on the west coast like I used to be.

Heisann!
It is amazing how big a difference the right tires make in the snow, the UK comes to a stop with a covering of snow, I've been driving on permafrost for the past 4 months! Where were you? West coast would be Stavanger/ Bergen area? I'm in Trondheim in mid Norway, its a lot drier here than the west coast, roads are not too bad condition, especially compared to Edinburgh!!
