Big man help?

Whats the biggest person you have had in your Elise?

I have a colleague staying with me soon and the only way into the office is my Elise but I fear he may not squeeze in. He is around 6ft (fine) but I guess he is around 22st in weight.

Ideas?

Tell me about it. I fear for the suspension and performance should be laughable with the additional weight

Can't remember the biggest person I had, but can remember the saddened and embarrassed look on a work colleagues face - big lardy lad (probably Chairman of the international pie eating appreciation society), probably pushing 25 stone - who I used to give lifts to in my Clio 182, who tried for around 10 seconds to get in to my Elise, before sadly heading off to the bus stop, pouring rain, tail between legs.

I've had my 17stone mate in my S2 - cosy, and I had to keep telling him that his thigh was in the way of the gearchange, but other than that no problem (though is is only 5ft 9ish).

also had a slimmer but much taller mate in (6ft 6in) and while it was less of a squeeze, his knees were under his chin...

I was once asked to pick up a family friend in my Elise who was massive!
I mean she was huge. She managed to get one leg in & gave up after that & called for a taxi much to my relief.

Anyone over 12 or 13 stone and I just take my other car The amount you have to push on the brakes scares me, as does the effort on the steering, but worst of all is the feeling that they are trying to push you out of the driver's door all the time! Oh, and with anyone fat I can't get second gear cause their legs are in the way

I'm 26 stone and 6'2" and fit just about with another person driving (although having to twist round a lot) and last drove one when i was about 21 stone and fitted fine with another person in the car.

Thats grand. I should be able to make this happen then. Thanks

I would be worried about the foundations at my office never mind the suspension on my car.

Free for a blast in the next few weeks? Think I am doing a cat and fiddle run on the morning of Saturday 3rd May if you fancy it?

Defo mate, remind me a few days before. One of my mates will come along as well as he is swapping his S1 for an S2 tonight. It will probably be your slowest evr run though with me on it. Us ESure drivers are very careful.

HAHA. Dont worry about it, I do not pretend to be a fast driver. Its roof off and enjoy the cars I say. The more the merrier so definitely invite your friend along, which S2 has he gone for?

I think I have a friend who will join as well however we don't look at him in the eye as he rides an Aprilla super bike.

Anyone else in the North West/Cheshire fancy coming along would be more than welcome.

All i know is that it is a blue "Y" reg one. He only had his S1 a week but decided he wanted an S2. He is worse than me when it comes to cars.

Open to suggestion. All I know is I want to start early.

Perhaps we could head from Mac to Buxton (cat & fiddle) then up to Glossop, take snakes pass to Sheffield and then back over Woodhead pass? Thats a good few hours drive though.

The other option is to head to Mac then Buxton (cat & fiddle) and head south to leek.

As mentioned above I am open to suggestion. Any ideas?
