it has an all steel 2.3 n/a cosworth duratec in it, spc box, weightwise guessing around 530kg (confirmed 2mrw getting corner weight set up as doesnt handle very well at mo ) at a recent mapping session it made 340bhp but Im yet to get this confirmed by a set of rollers I trust 100%, will get it up to Mcdonald racing shortly.. whatever the figures it grafts a bit

was over that way maybe Monday ? I was doing some research into what speed is achievable coming off the roundabouton 2 wheels going up to the bridge using the bridge as the backing off point, my research revealed that a supercharged Elise is actually 6 mph slower than a diesel bmw and 18mph slower than a new M5 between the 2 points but still managed a respectable speed all the same!
[quote=Stevie Mojo][quote=JeffC]just picked this up today

well I really couldnt get away with the Elise so I sold it 2 weeks ago after only having it a month or so!! ..
saw this had just gone live on autotrader at 8.30 on Sunday morning but 270 miles away, borrowed a trailer and had it bought by 1.00 and back home for 6.30 feel much more at home in it ...
bring on the summer !

All good thanks. I'd imagine most things are going to feel slow after the Busa and Caterham. Its the biggest problem with owning cars like that, everything else feels a bit pedestrian!I sold the 300bhp Caterham couple of months ago ,Im now racing karts so was no time to race the caterham as well, replaced it with a road car (lotus Sc) but It didnt do it for me, Lovely to look at but snail slow hence bought another Caterham..

keeping the thread alive, sold my Caterham a few month ago and replaced it 2 weeks ago, unfortunatly weather has been shocking so havnt been out to get some decent pics so spent a few weeks minting it up when we were snowed in, gave it a full claybar down followed my a full machine polish and several coats of wax , only pics ive got are of it confined to the garage, hopefully more to come when sun comes out!
