chrome orange and krypton green looks bloody awesome and is an option that was pretty damn expensive if I remember rightly. saw a chrome orange yota s last week in preston with black alloys lick
correct me if i'm wrong but the lucky yanks can choose this as standard.

I was looking for the "right" Elise for over a 12 months. In all that time I never saw a Chrome Orange or Krypton Green one for sale, not an S2 anyway.
I bought a Saffron Yellow one in the end.

i had an S1 in chrome orange, but have rarely seen an S2 elise in it although it was quite a popular choice on the first series and only a £587 extra over standard paint back in 98. around a £2000 option now i think yikes

Merrits have a an ex demo available. I've driven it and it's lovely. 08 model year as well. They've had it for a while though and it's December. So if it we me I'd offer them £26k.
