Potential newbie here!

Post by woza » Wed Mar 17, 2010 2:32 pm

Hi all,

Well having helped andibrook(seloc) pick up his Type 72 last weekend, it has re-kindled my passion to get behind the wheel of a Lotus.

Whilst im not looking at getting something quite as special, i'm still excited.

My question is - does anyone near or around Edinburgh have an S or an R (s2).

I've got my eye on an S in particular but wouldn't mind a passenger ride in both and some opinions on what people prefer. Being that the car i have seen is down South i would like to do this before i commit to anything.

Thanks all,

Woza (potential owner!)

Welcome along to Scottish_Elises woza, any Elise variety is special especially if it is your first one, I am in Aberdeen, but the Central mob will soon be on with suggestions.

Yes, am thinking of paying Graeme a visit at the weekend.

Has a very nice storm grey S in stock, did that belong to someone on here?

Woza.

P.s. Thanks for the welcomes.
