MartinB Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Mostly depends on what your budget is but the classified's on www.pistonheads.com seem to have loads come on for sale daily. I would suggest a couple of long test drives first as they do have their little quirks, on a hot day they do get rather warm inside. Look on ChitChat there is a Elise V Caterham debate that covers most points, Usefull sites are www.elises.co.uk and www.seloc.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Furst Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Peter, A long time local member of the 7 Club (Warwickshire) is trying to sell his Mk1 Elise at this very moment. His name is Don Cheshire and his car is a lightly modified 135 (now with more power) if you are interested E-mail me and I'll pass his/your details across.

Mike C. Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 Yes, the budget is the decider. For a 'wifey' car (ie with some creature comforts) S2 111S would be sensible(ish). Mad Manx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
