been a fun packed few months of s1 ownership, but the liz has gone to its new home, a nice chap called mike who runs the norfolk area for club lotus.
im glad it went to somone who knew what they are all about, knew what problems to looks for, knew everything about them.
usually it would have been an ideal time to pick faults but once again DG buys a good car, spends a load of cash on it making it even better, then sells it a few months later . . . . . lossing about 4 grand, hmm, mabe thats not such a good thing . . . . .
anyways, with the new house, it really wasnt practical, as mike will tell you, it was flooded when he came to collect it.
so I bought a range rover instead (not the sport shite, the propper one) and to be honest, I really like it, all apart from the 13mpg im getting :s
so, I bid you all farewell and hopefully ill have a s1 exige in a few months and be back to tell you how slow it is compared to the 911 i had

Thats my Q then
Indeed deepest Hereford was both very pretty and very wet. The liz has come back to its home county and although wont be treated to lots of polish and only sunny days out it will be used and very much looked after.
Thanks Gary, good to meet another car nut and a good honest fellow to boot. the car is excellent.
I think the rangey will be a lot more suited to your roads.
enjoy.
