a7esk Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Thanks Aimee @ Alex I've been to see a few elises including a bit of a rough one with a katana near stanstead, I'd be happy with an SC elise .my other half wants me to get an exige but if a good elise came up I'd go for it one of the biggest problems I've had is dealers buying potential purchase cars before I can get to them then putting them up for 4k more 2 weeks later. If you want to see an Elise have a look at mine up for sale .Eddie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generaljake Posted June 5, 2014 Author Share Posted June 5, 2014 Hi Eddie, yes I've seen your car up... I really like it ( my other half loves it ..tigger colours apparently ) I was banking/wishing for a SC though but tbh I've not been in a R so not closed to the idea. I was thinking maybe get used to the chassis in an 111r/r then upgrade to sc when funds allow in a couple of years. but having the cliosport already which goes mental at 5500rpm, I was looking for the SC initially in either elise or exige. It's tough this lotus hunting and hurts my head at times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

generaljake Posted June 16, 2014 Author Share Posted June 16, 2014 yep .. pick her up Saturday from Newcastle 2006 Exige S in black with 5500 miles on the clock, sports pack, LSD pretty unloved, needs some de-cobwebbing then out with the machine polisher. Second step remove/replace everything that's corroded I'll post some pics when I get it home I may retrofit driving lights and a bit of soundproofing but I'll see, needs a better exhaust and of course (it seems) a TRD airbox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
