"Couple of good photographers on here who may be able to help you out if you are short on time or talent :thumbsup
Would be a shame not to have a couple of quality shots of a car like that."

I'm here if you need any photos done! :wavey

Yeah met Adam on the last PH Glasgow/Moffat run - would be good to get some 'proper' photos.
Probably worth waiting though until I've got the Elise so I can get some of both!

Thanks for all the welcomes!

Thanks guys.

Matelotman - yeah am on SSC (and PH), same profile name.

Picked the Elise up on Thursday evening from Murray Lotus and am loving it! The car looked great in the showroom ready to go and Graeme was excellent to deal with and I would certainly recommended them.

Already had a trip up to Skye planned for the weekend so took it up there and it was fantastic. Had a superb drive along the A87 particularly the Kyle of Lochalsh/Five Sisters bit - they're quite good round the corners aren't they!! :D

Not the easiest car for me to get in/out of (being 6'5) but worth the effort. I'll post a couple of pics up in the next couple of days (of the car, not me trying to get in/out of it)!

Cheers,
Mike.

Is it an Maritime Blue one and owned by an older chap by any chance?

Kinda like this but with a blue/purple lip on the wheels:

A kind fellow took me out in his a couple of Trackdays ago, made the temptation to get one even greater :(
