for those of you with an Elise on standard suspension / ride height do you have any problems parking in multi-story car parks?

just i park in one under the office and am concerned about the angle of the ramps and the front spolier.

I have a Sport 160 which has a 100/110 ride height (standard for a Sport 160, but much lower than a normal Elise) and I've never had much of a problem, sometimes the number plate takes a scrap.

ramps/kerbs/speedbumps are the natural enemy of the elise.

Kerbs seem to be my only problem -have ripped the reg plate off once, and came very close to it a second time (nasty grindy noise). Always when I accidentally park too far fwd and catch the kerb.

Speed bumps dont seem to be a problem, and we've got some fairly 'aggressive' ones round where I live.

I was worried about the entry/exit ramp leading to the Eurotunnel train this year but it wasn't a problem in the end, despite the slightly down-sloping approach which made the total angle steeper.
