Hi.
Well after a roundabout journey over the last 10 years or so I'm finally into an S1 Elise.
I have been through a few Westfields (built/re-built/modified/upgraded), a Supercharged VX220 (driven hard and upgraded) and an MX5 (a good drive but no pizazz) and finally settled on what I should have got after I sold my last Westfield
I brought the S1 from Scott Walker in July (a good chap to deal with, honest, very knowledgeable and patient) after I sold the MX5, it's totally standard, in good condition and drives really nicely.
I have not used it as much as I'd have liked so far (about 2000 miles) but I felt immediately at home in it and the more I drive it the more I like it.
It's Storm Titanium and Red Wing leather with 46K on the clock and, previous owners, hard top and extensive history with Lotus specialists.
I'll be looking at changing the front tyres to TR1-S' to match the rears (fronts are currently TR1-R) and the gear change bushes need doing but apart from that it's good to go.
Long term I'll replace the original Koni Reds with S2 Billies get a 340R geo, some cosmetic tidying up and then leave it well alone.
Chaz.
