New Highlander
Hi folks,
I've been looking on here for ages but never spoke up.
I run an L200 Animal just now but have a serious hankering for an Elise for quite a while now. I have promised myself one come April next year. Planning an S2.
I live in Aberdeen through the week and Kildary near Tain at the weekends. I thought this was the best place to come for advice on what to buy and what to look out for. I'll be browsing the posts to read up but anything offered would be appreaciated.
Cheers for now.
PS hardrockjock (aka John) hows it going mannie? The interest really started when had a seat in yours just after you got it, so its your fault!!!

If at first you don't succeed, use a bigger hammer.

Re: New Highlander

Kinda time-consuming to give the low-down on all the variants....sure someone with far more technical knowledge and motivation will be along soon though.
But speaking from the point of view of owning a bog-standard 120hp elise, personally I love it, and still can't say my skills merits an upgrade, even after 3 years of pretending.
Much fun can be had without spending silly money
