Great stuff. A good friend of mine used to race an Elan sprint and an ultimate spec 7 has recently had his S1 Elise converted with the Honda Vtec screamer, its bonkers! Think it was about 13k for the full job!

Ahh Elam sprint - swmbo is on the lookout for one of them.
Everybody raved about the Elise with 120bhp at 700kgs... Well the élan was that in the 60's. damn fine cars.

Never had any issues with any of mine - none that I couldn't fix myself anyway.

I was tempted with the Honda but never got round to it. The audi's are more powerful but I prefer revs to torque.

On my driveway studying on my Nexus trying to work out how to remove the seats...

This one's with Will Blackham who's a great guy and sold me the car - if you want an Elise or Exige - see him.

Sorry about the number plate blanking - the RS is on the same driveway.

Do you guys reckon white stripes from fore to aft would make the colour 'less severe'?

Colour is awesome

Which one is Will !?!?

I spoke to him a couple of times last year when I considered selling.

Mrs talked me out of it and I spent a <beep> load on mods instead!

After stating that I won't be going up North to pick the Lotus up I am now, their low loader is buggered and wouldn't get the car for over a week unless I go and pick it up, they have offered to drive it to me but not keen on the idea as I wanted to see a clean car.

Getting the train up on Saturday.

Shame but all part of the collection process!

When they did my upgrade I was due to fly up and collect it - that was when the ash cloud descended !

Shame about the low loader mate.

Ahh that takes me back. Talking to ATC and being told "go where you want... it's all broken".
