Yeah but then there's no room for any kids. (This may be a good thing)

Congrats to Elaine. A great choice. The best paint colour by far, and love the interior!

Nice one Shug. A big comfy Elise for everyday use, without the compromises one might think... :)

As almost everyone else has said, that is a great colour combo!

I really didn't like the Evora when they were first released but they've really grown on me, I'm sure it'll be a perfect 'mature' replacement for the Elise.

As an aside, where do people find wives who think that an Evora is suitable family transport!?
I'd have tried harder to find one of those if I knew they existed!

If I told you, Steve, I'd have to kill you.

It's all in the selection process my friend...

Shug, Elaine,

Congratulations on the new Evora as it looks great.

Do miss our Evora sometimes although with 2 cocker spaniels I don't think we could get away with one as "family transport" :)

As said elsewhere, many congrats, the car looks lovely, great colour scheme. 8) Wish all three of you many happy miles in it. :thumbsup

p.s. who knows I may follow your car purchase choice in 5 1/2 years time again like I did with the 111R SC. :oops: :lol:

Cheers all.

Lets not get carried away though - the practicality chat is semi-tongue in cheek :D We've got an old S8 and a Shogun for proper trips, but handy to be able to put sprog in the "nice" motor and still be able to travel as a couple as well :thumbsup

Boot is actually less useful than the S2, albeit balanced out by rear seat space to stick bags.

I was stood next to your old S1 only yesterday.

Aye, but the main thing is I can get my golf clubs in the boot c/w shoes and battery for the trolley instead of passenger seat on the Exige.

Really love that colour, I was drooling over Campbell's during the Frolic.
