Hello all, newbie on the look out for a nice s1 to replace my rx8, you will no doubt see me lurking around and asking daft questions for the foreseeable future

Re: Elise Hunting
There will be plenty of help here. I went through the buying experience for the first time recently and it would have been far harder without the kind help of some members on here. So I'll be happy to pass on any advice that people like wise gave to me. There are several good resources out there like the SELOC wiki etc. get googling, it's a good place to start and give ideas for questions.

I got a couple of sheets on the main things to look at when buying an S1, sure a few people have seen it and said it was quite useful. Can PM me your email and I will pass it on

The dogs wanger is long gone along with the rather embarrasing gear stick thankfully
