I really like these, and white is not the best colour.
One question, I've managed to view one in the flesh close up and climbed in and out of it a couple of times..what's the consensus on the wide sill and drop down into the seat, I could imagine it becomes a real PITA, especially when wearing a suit on a rainy day (and having to sit on the sill while you swing in)
I was told order today for sept 1st delivery - which doesn't sound to bad ??
It's fine getting in & out once you have the knack - having an Elise for the last 10 years helps! More of a worry is finding a parking space where you can get out - the doors have to be fully open and need about 50cm, you can't squeeze out with the door just ajar like in a conventional car - and then hoping someone doesn't park too close while you're away.One question, I've managed to view one in the flesh close up and climbed in and out of it a couple of times..what's the consensus on the wide sill and drop down into the seat, I could imagine it becomes a real PITA, especially when wearing a suit on a rainy day (and having to sit on the sill while you swing in)

Interesting that they can deliver in September. I ordered mine in July, coming in April, so it seems the waiting time hasn't grown at all, about 8/9 months.

Why anybody would consider one of these over an M4 is beyond me.
better looking, more interesting, quieter, not named after a motorway, more innovation, great for sneaking up on blind people, doesn't have the M car image 5eanF said:
seen one in Newcastle a couple of moths ago looked great from every angle, sadly seen one that had been smashed last night here in Jeddah looked a right mess
I drove past one in Newcastle a couple of weeks back. I'm not sure I could live with those doors though. I'd feel like some muppet from Fast and Furious getting out of the thing in Asda car park.Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
