I'm in a porsche so i'm alright jack but my mate who is considering coming down with us has a newly aquired elise ( and a fine piece of kit it is too!) but is quite confident he's going all his kit in (2 man tent 2 sleeping bags,blow up beds spare pants etc,etc). Now i can't see how he's going to do it.

Anyone know or has done it themselves??

In 2004 "135 sport" managed two people, a 4 man tent, 2 sleeping bags, clothes and sofa......(inflatable).

The roof did stay at home mind.

I took my S1 Elise last year no problem. Tent, 2 sleeping bags, Inflatable double bed and clothes, shoes etc for 2 people.

These are rather handy in the little lotus

Six of us went last year a Series 2 Elise,a Series 1 Exige and a Boxster S.

and we managed to get all the required camping essentials in all 3 cars,ok i will admit the Boxster was over flowing and it was a struggle to shut the bonnet and boot.

This year we have more cars so more space so able to take more really useful equipment(pool etc etc)

eh? You just roll them up and the air squeezes out a one way valve. They are also useful when packing for hols to maximise space in suitcases for duty free ciggies

With careful packing I really had no problem with all our stuff in the Elise.

Come all you need is enough space for a spare pair of pants, and room for the beers. We not girls going on a girlie weekend!
