I've had my Elise for 8 months now and am up to about 5,800 miles. Its still going really well and I feel very comfortable that it will not bite me unless I do something really stupid!

Had a new hood under warranty a few weeks ago and they sorted a brake recall at the same time. My nearest dealer is in Leicester, 40 miles from work, which is a pain though.

Still not done a track day yet, I guess that will have to be next year now.

The car gets loads of nice comments from all sorts of people and unlike my TT, people will let me out of junctions!

Had to call AA out the other day. My mate's knee had somehow knocked the hazard flashers and jammed the button, so the indicators stopped working. Took the AA man all of 30 secs to sort.

Been reading the Best of Evo mag that has just been published. I like the way they say the Veyron and Zonda handle like an Elise
