New S1 Owner

Hi everyone.

I'm not really a newbie - I used to have a VX220 (in sig below) so I've met a few of you guys at various runs and trackdays.

I recently bought an S1 Elise (hopefully the above photo will work - it's hosted on Facebook).

So far so good, really enjoying the Elise.

Congrats on your purchase! The car looks good; one of the best colours for an S1. Is it standard?... any mods?

Look forward to seeing it at some point :thumbsup

Thanks. It's all standard except a K&N filter. Possibly a Lotus sports exhaust? ...oval tail pipe? - It sounds pretty good anyway.

I changed the wiper arm to the S2 one, that's the only mod I had planned.

The MR2 is looking really tidy! ...you've got a great example.

I had looked at your mate's Elise, but I preferred the colour of this one :lol: ...tell him I said thanks for taking the time to let me have a look.

Identical to the original N1 TUT, Azure Blue with cream leather, lovely combination, but I had the five spoke wheels.

Make sure that it lasts longer than mine did........... :D

Fingers crossed I'll have her for a while!

Hopefully I'll be able to do the whole Highland Hoon with her next year :D
