Day to day living with a VX

[XM5ER]

I'm going through a similar thought process as Muncher at present. ie VX versus S1 elise.

My question is, is the VX easier to live with day to day. The car wouldn't do extensive milage but I would use it for business trips (often 400miles round) about once per month and dropping my daughter off at the nursery.

Now due to the difference in sale price, I could keep my bimmer for day to day and shove the elise in the garage but I think that's an extravagence too far (particularly given that the insurence for the lotus seems particularly extortionate)

My heart says Lotus, but my head says VX (because it is a lotus)

ps what tuning options are there for the VX n/a.

I have down 22k miles in a year in a turbo. I am 6"5 and often travel to 400 + miles to Scotland. I haven't hand any issues. ps I have got mine for £20k sale in the piston heads classified.

If I had £20k I'd bite your arm off.

Cheers lads, sounds quite promising, looks like I'm going to have to blag some test drives. Do Vauxhall still do this 48hour test malarky I read about on this forum?

The more I read about the VX, the more I want one instead of an Elise, seems a much more sensible choice.

I agree. A nice silver one with a red roof.
