Hi Folks,

I'm sure most of you will recognise these locations. One chap from the other side of the border was online recently praising our roads for the driving experience and I have to agree.

Enjoy

Everybody to their own, but sun out and hardtop on?

Just does not seem right for an Elise.

Hahahahaha.. Last time I was on a Late night -6 degree, roof off run with you, you turned up in a german barge with 4 wheel drive and a V8! :damnfunny Ya big puf! :wink:

Great run though and very sensible pace even though you had a massive grip and power advantage, really enjoyed it, and looking forward to the next one :thumbsup

Yeh yeh yeh. Knew I'd get more stick. Just haven't made the time to read up on how to take the hard top off and put the soft top on. Been on holiday too, three days work then off to the lake district next weekend. Maybe after I come back from my long weekend . . . :wink:

I look at Blaques car (soft top) and then at mine (hard top) and to be honest, I'm not in any rush to switch tops. :?
