As I am picking up my Elise tomorrow lunch time, I am sorting the insurance out tonight. Got a few on-line quotes last night. The best ones were from:- MoreThan.co.uk (about £495, but with £600 excess, protected NCB for life) ScreenTrade.co.uk (Lloyds TSB trading name)- Actual policy is with "Fortis": About £580- £250 excess protected NCB Norwich Union: £637, £220 excess, protected NCB Any comments on the above, or other suggestions? Many thanks, Ian

All Golf drivers should be shot! Their brakes are far too good! I now have a bent front end!! Not chuffed, Sent pics to Mike at Horizon for a quote. As you can imagine the golf suffered a scratch were the badge touched the paintwork on the bottom of the bumper.

Had a pretty damned good thanks from Christoper Neil at Northwich!! Got passes for the Lotus stand at show on Sat and have invited Moi to a trackday at Oulton Park on 1st June. They are demoing the new Exige, TVR & Noble. You have to choose which car u want a go in, so I've gone for the Exige (not sure whether it's driving or being a passenger) - either would do!! Anyone else here going on Tuesday morning?

Have been thinking a bit about not spending loads of cash on nitrons/oz etc but going for a bit of a change and maybe getting a caterham instead. Anyone have much experience of these? Am going to go over and have a look next week anyway but what are the general views? A bit more raw than the lis and just a general thought at the moment but given that I run a 'sensible' car as well it could be an option...maybe an R3/400 superlight.

Do you have anything you wish to confess to MLOC about? Maybe regarding a slight non declaration of some of the work being done by Horizon? All well and good mentioning the S2 Suspension, Advans etc.. but anything you feel you missed and maybe should confess to?

Kinda thinking an induction kit might be next on the shopping list. I know that most (if not all) would recommend the Hurricane kit, but as I'm looking for a house at the same time I could do with spending a few less notes than that. What do the people who have K&N / Pipercross etc. think of theirs. I assume the only difference between these brands and the hurricane is that the Hurricane has a cover over the filter to prevent it from sucking too much warm air from the engine bay??? Not really after big performance gains (although that would be nice ), just thought it was about time I got one. I already have the EliseParts sports silencer and their CRP. Wil…
