Re: my old Elise
missing my Lotus too. Sold it back in April 2008 after owning for 1 year and 1 day. I look at autotrader, lotuscars, pistonheads every day !!! So many good deals at the moment. Going to try and hold off for a bit as i have a wee one on the way and the economic climate is all over the place at the moment.

I'll save anyone else the hassle by telling them not to bother going to look at this car. I viewed it in mid Oct when it was 18995. I CBA posting up all the things wrong with it, but believe me, it's a lot ! I know another SE'er has also looked at it and quickly walked away.Digital wrote:That Exige is obviously a bargain, it's got the highly desirable power assisted steering and colour-coded bumpersa4drk wrote:Is that not quite dear?
