Hello All

[Thumbs]

Hello All,

I have just bought a S1 111S from Paul Matty,

and I Love it!

I owned a 500 Chimaera last year but sold it to get married, on the agreement that I could get another toy after the wedding. I thought I wanted a Caterham, but each car I looked at was just not right. Then on a whim (and constant advice from friends) I thought I would take a look at Elise’s.

I bought the first car I saw! Oops

Don't worry about it... Paul Matty Sportscars are the only used car dealer in the country that I trust - the whole team are enthusiasts and I've yet to hear a word said against them or the cars they sell.

Welcome aboard!

Congrats mate. Also bought an s1 111S this weekend. chuffed to bits so far.

[Paul RN]

Very nice! Welcome to the club!

[Pumpkinheeed]

Exactly the same as the one I bought in July.
Mine had 17K on the clock. Has since had a Hurricane and a Larini Club Sport added to it.
IT'S AWESOME.

Am proud to say I use it as a daily driver and find it no bother what so ever.

Enjoy!

My pride and Joy...

Has the Hurricane had any noticeable effect

Nice colour BTW

[Lotus Lewis]

Well done mate nice colour

[Pumpkinheeed]

Thumbs...
I would say the effect on performance from the Hurricane is up for debate. Perhaps a little better throttle response.
BUT! It's still worth the money for that lovely sucking noise when you open the throttle wide open. Add to that the Larini and honestly it gives me goose bumps.
OOO! And it also finally makes the car sound like it looks... small children (and grown men alike) stop and stare when they hear it coming!

and if you get the decatted larini aswell you will be trying to keep it around 1900-2000 rpm all the time cos then it just crackles and pops as its driving along

sounds "usefull"

i`ve just added a hurricane to mine and with the sports exhuast, the best way to describe it is..its like having chewbacca sat in your engine bay at 3000-4000 revs Hollywood Wheels will tell you the same

I like this idea as the noise is the only thing I miss from the TVR.

And, maybe the boot space - we won't be able to take the dovet on camping trips anymore.
