Newbie to Scottish Elises.

Post by S111 CRA » Tue May 03, 2011 9:25 pm

Evening all..

New to this site but not so new to the Lotus scene.. (seeing as I'm on my second Exige and had an Elise before!) but never knew about this until good old google!

Just wanted to say pop on and say hi.

Edinburgh based so if you see S111 CRA give us a wave!

PS if there are any track days or drives arranged would be good to attend and get some miles on my car seeing as it has only done 200 in the last two years!

Welcome! Keep an eye out on for the various track days available throughout the year. Some of which mentioned here

http://www.scottishelises.com/phpbb/vie ... =6&t=28743

One of the more popular is the SIDC days which runs for a 4 hour session usually 9-1pm which is usually very popular with members on here.

There are various others which are attended and usually mentioned on the site when they are coming up!

Other events such as road runs like dukes pass run and BBQ can be well attending and are as much about the social side as well as enjoying the cars.

What variant of lotus do you currently have.

My last one was a red one, its now in Bellshill / Glasgow area as I seen it not long ago (recognised it because I put Larini exhaust and some other trick bits on it!) - this ones a grey 240 correct.

And yes it's been with the guys at SLS for a few days getting some tlc seeing as the central locking decided to pack up again!

Its back again next weekend - Ali & Mark will be charging me rent soon...

I'd got to the stage where I'd got fed up with the Lotus but starting to enjoy having it again. Maybe should have joined Scottish Elises a long time ago!
