Back in an Elise

After stupidly selling my S1 2 years ago and buying a Porsche
I picked up this Elise S yesterday.
Drove it back to Edinburgh from Norwich yesterday, which wasn't too bad, AC and Cruise Control helped.
Managed an amazing 45mpg, which isn't bad for something that does 0-60 in 4.2s.

45? You were not trying hard enough
Welcome back. An S3 S is the thinking man's modern S1. With bonus oomph

Very nice. Looks like a Robin spec car too.
Cruise is very handy.

Looks lovely.
I averaged 41mpg to Hethel for the 70th, and that was a 120bhp K series so 45mpg sounds good.
Porsche feedback? guess as you've changed it didn't tick the boxes ?

Porsche was a good car, but too sensible and had no soul.
Also a lot of Porsche haters out there...
