S Reg Elise v VX220NA

[Muncher]

I've decided that I want an Elise S1 around the time of my 21st birthday, looking for an early one and probably doing most of the servicing myself to keep costs down.

Elephant have quoted me £1,260 for one.

However, just running a VX220 through the quotes system (51 plate), they'll only charge me £827 for one!

In terms of ownership costs and depreciation, how does the VX220 compare to an older Elise?

Any idea of anticipated depreciation on the VX, compared with an older S1?

If I did go for a VX, I'd be looking for pretty much the cheapest one I could find, on autotrader the cheapest is £13.5k, has anyone seen any cheaper?

I'd be buying in december, a couple of weeks before christmas, high mileage not a problem.

Hey dude, shes a beaut. Just got one myself, well picking up wednesday. I was loking for one in blue like that had to settle for silver, guess you got the blue one, glad you made the vx choice?

Very, very pleased.

Given how easy I am taking it at the minute I feel there is a lot left to it.

Are you getting an NA? How much are you paying?
