My first Elise finally :-)

[bananamana]

Well guys and gals,
I want to thank you all for the information you have provided to me over the past few months. I have finally committed to purchase my very first Elise.

My only time ever seeing on in real life turned out to be a disaster as anyone who ready my older posts will know. I got to sit in it for 15 minutes before the radiator exploded, hehe. Well that didnt stop me!! I must be a true enthusiast at heart, either that or really stupid

Im picking it up in Edinburgh on saturday and getting a ferry back to ireland with it. Sorry about subtracting one from the UK economy but it has to be done im afriad!! :P

This will be my baby

Thoughts?

Edit - Special thanks to HAG who pointed me in the direction of this one. Truly, a stunning car (from the pics anyway)

Well done mate, you will love it, just be warned- this is the start of a serious addiction

Does look nice. TBH I don't think the pics do ice blue justice. I saw one (once) in the flesh and it's a very distinctive colour. Not seen any other cars in a similar shade. Bit like a sophisticated chrome orange or krypton green

Happy

OMG the roads around Edinburgh!!! That has to be the best toy in the best place!

Great choice of car and a great colour (but then again I may be biased - I have an ice blue S1!).
Hopefully see you around NI sometime.

Good price, lovely looking car. But then I am a bit biased...

Congrats. Just been out for a test today in an 111R and I'm hooked, just waiting for the right one to turn up now and I'll be joining the club.

You're going to absolutely love it!

Looks very nice - I dont think the owner is on www.scottishelises.com though.

Someone local could have given it the once over for you to save you the trip, still time I guess

Congratulations on a fine purchase - pleased you got there in the end after all the researching. Very nice looking car - enjoy.

Good to see another one make it to this side of the irish sea. I'm sure there are more elises around here than we all imagine.

Further to my last post I wonder how many of us are from NI?

I always loved that colout, my old elise was in Glacier blue.
