My son stole my elise and rolled it!

[shangani]

Can't trust the youth of today - perfectly good car until my son rolled it. Even broke the rear aerial. He is six and doesn't have a driver's licence, so insurance not gonna help me here. Luckily the steel bodywork withstood the impact. No sign of the driver though....

Then again, could have been my daughter who did it.

Oh Shangers... god that's such bad luck mate

Still, at least you're ok. You should have heeded the warning of plenty others here, but hey, just as long as you live and learn mate

Are you going to get something a little less 'difficult' now?

Anyway, I hope you get it sorted soon



(btw... anyone else notice the strange two week gap between the paint code on that car and the thread twist type in the carpet..?)

[supaspark]

Glad everyones OK....By the way your radiator looks pissed...get it sorted!

Personally I think it was remiss of you not to tell him to get some heat into those 048's before embarking upon the lounge slalom course ...

Sorry to hear that.
I suggest you delete this post immediately, as someone from your insurance company might read it.

Also the discs, they look as new(no rust), and I guess that car has never bin on trackdays? is it a write of?

Oh, and they have warned you kids...kids, don't try this at home lol

At least he didn't slam it into a lamp-post on the exit of a roundabout whilst crooozin

[junks]

Are there any salvageable parts left - I need a piar of rear wishbones

[LotusElan17]

Definitely something fishy going on here, looks like Lotus forgot to fit brake calipers, no wonder your son/daughter crashed, when did Lotus go back do developing ground effect, one piece undertray must smooth the airflow.

I recognise the crash site, almost certainly the kitty litter at Brands Paddock Hill Bend, they must have installed the giant radiator since I was last there.

A lampost wasn't involved was it, looks repairable to me.

Look, I appreciate that having your car rolled is not ideal but it could have been a lot worse. When I was nine I crashed the Millenium Falcon into my mum's washing machine, trust me, it was messy.

Must have been diesel...

Is that what happened to twpbugger

Only joking mate

I reckon your homeowners policy should cover that.

Small cars are like breasts, they are designed for kids but it is always the father who plays with them.

Best quote of the day!

[shangani]

If you have breasts, I can recommend a dietician and a personal trainer....
