N00b

Post by captain » Mon Aug 10, 2015 9:24 pm

Well, sort of.

Hello again.

I joined 10 years ago when I had a vx220 Turbo. Had a few things since including a 450bhp classic Impreza, a 700bhp v10 Audi and now driving a v8 m3.

Been contemplating getting back to basics so am considering an s1 Elise.

An S1 might feel a tad underpowered compared to some of your previous steeds but they still bring a smile to most owners

You were going to join us for a run over Glenshee the month before TT 2005, but can not remember if it happened or not.

Ahh yes, I went on a few runs with some of the chaps on here and other vx drivers.

I remember your Honda Elise Tut: battle-scarred, very loud and very quick!

Yes it is! Was just telling Andy that I bet I end up using the Elise all the time and I flog the m3...

Are you still looking for the impossible?!

The m3 is an amazing all rounder, if I wanted one car to do it all, that would be (was) it. The partybus is my daily, does all my family and bike needs with ease. However, When I want to drive, the Elise is just nirvana, it's purpose is much more specific.

Now... How many old tractors/landies/subarus and other collected transportation devices do you have to sell first!

Selling the Range Rover and the sh*t mondeo, keeping the m3, freelander and the 110.

Might buy a party bus or pickup through the company though...
