No it doesnae - too tall.
ETS: Oh, and Alan, car looks stunning btw
You won't be disappointed with a 7 - and Renmure's recent R300 purchase is a good indicator of what can be had for less than new price

Hope it stays north of the border, It'll be sad to see it go but onwards and upwards - or downwards in this case, the Caterham's a lot lower
I'm sure you'll regret it a bit everytime you see an S1 for a while, but overall it'll allow you to use it more, and likely break less / costs less to run, whilst returning as many smiles, it'll be worth it
