New Lotus in Aberdeen

Good Morning all,

I have been lurking these pages for a while as I moved to Aberdeen 18 months ago however I have only just got my Elise up here. I have put some pictures up below its a DIY Stark conversion Honda n/a which I have completed recently so is still being tweaked.

Not really sure where to go to find some good roads so any suggestions or if there are any runs planned let me know

Robin.

Plenty of really good roads up this neck of the woods.

This event would be a great introduction for you into the SE community, and there will be a few cars heading up from Aberdeen on that weekend. What with some great driving roads, stunning scenery, BBQ on the beach, and lots of friendly people to welcome you into the fold.

Welcome to Scottish_Elises Robin, and good to see another Elise joining the Aberdeen faction, especially a Honda'd one. Mine is very similar, yellow S1 with a S/C Honda, and we also have two 340R's and at least three other Elises with Honda conversions.

A pity that you missed our LEGGS breakfast meet at the Spittal yesterday as it would have been a good chance to have met quite a few of us, as well as a good run in both directions.

I am not far from you in Old Deer, retired so home all the time, so give me a ring on 01771 622971 if you would like to pop up and get out for a run.

Cheers

tut

Looking good!

Hope to see you around- some of the trips you'll see posted in the 'meets' section make for the stuff of legends...

(A fine offer, btw, if your ba**s are bigger than your brain!)

Head west out past Ballater, Glenshee etc. Been on some fanastic runs out that way! Tut knows all the good routes so I'd go for a run with him - will save him hanging around here for a bit!!

Oh, and welcome.
