Hello,

New around here, so please excuse me as this question has probably been answered before!

Basically been tinkering on the edge of getting an elise for ages. Couple of months ago squeezed myself into a S1 111s and was little disappointed. It was shabby, not cleaned and TBH i found myself looking a bit of an arse getting in and out!

Anyway, the other day stratstone of Cardiff were displaying one their cars (S2 111r)and it looked awesome. Th salesman said that the sills have been lowered about 2 1/2 inches making it weasier the clamber in and out.

Is this true? While we're on the subject...does anybody else use their elise on a daily commute, how is it?

Thanks

Gareth

Hi and welcome. There is a bery significant difference in the S2 side sills. Over 5 cm lower. Access into the S2 is fine by comparison.

Definitely give it a try. I use my S2 111s as my daily car (for 2 years now) and have had no issues.

Thanks Shangani,
Incouraging...i thought it maybe salesman rubbish. wouldn't have detered me much though, the car i seen looked fab. Need to arrange a test drive - havent driven one yet?
