Hello from the North Sea

Post by Stang » Wed Jan 02, 2008 10:40 pm

Another newbie checking in. :wave

Not a Lotus owner yet but was directed here by Renmure (cheers bud). Looking to get rid of my old 944 for something a bit special. Have always loved the Elise, and after hitting knockhill last year I think the Lotus would be easier to handle than my daily driver :lol:

My two boys with there F reg cousin.

Hope to get some good knowledge from you guys.

Cheers

Good luck with the search, will you go for a S1 or a S2 :?: What ever you do dont ask which is the best on here as you will start WWIII.

No seriously you will get loads of help from us.

Thank's again guy's. I am thinking with my price range it will have to be the S1. Should not even be spending that much as I use the Stang as my everyday car when I am at home. I only really use the Porsche for shopping (when I have to get through barriers) and taking back and fore to Aberdeen for work. But then looking at the cars out there I want something different (never was one to follow the crowd) and something to have fun with at KH.

Definatley don't want to start WWIII by asking the "what's best" question. (I'm sure the VX's would be in the fight also...... "joke" VXJON :lol: )
