| I'm not an 'expert' at anything but being short Posts: 6154 | An elise would be lovely, a proper replacement for the metro for me - little and light, nothing you dont need. I'd go for a S1 and bolt on all my engine goodys. Only thing im not keen on with the Toyota lump is its extreme peakiness, 6k before it starts shifting.  Mind you, a decent ecu sorts that in no time so i hear. | ||

Expert Posts: 8490 Location: Midlands | They're not bad down low but certainly bit more of a kick up the arse when it gets up the rev range Not such a smooth transition as a vvc but 190bhp to start with isnt bad | ||

| Don't take offence, I'm only having a joke! Posts: 2224 Location: Sheffield | Elises are awful, I don't know what all the fuss is about the handling etc etc. Yeah, they are agile, but I've seen and driven alot better, and the brakes IMO are garbage, and uncomfortable for someone over 6'3" like myself. As for an S1 Exige, that is one car I would have, in orange | ||

Did that particular one have roller-barrel TB's as opposed to the standard VHPD TB's? Numberplate looks very similar to one I did a swap on a couple of years back  Tan/Rich, get the Noble, even an early 2.5l version is evil, I know of one for sale that needs a new front clamshell, wheels and trim parts and tidying up after a trackday incident, ants about £18k I think | ||
