Anyone that calls an elise girly has never been in one and to some extent they could be gay for overlooking a good car just because they're got a bad persona of it.

Talking from experience of being in one thats been de-catted and has a induction kit, its fantastic, its definetly one of the best handling cars i've been in, damn fast too for a n/a car, definetly a car you can have fun in smile But, its not to practical, getting in and out of them is anoying, even for us blokes that dont wear skirts, the roof takes more than a minuite to put back together, no carpet doesnt make it feel to cosy either. But, its effectivly a race car for the road, great car, but i'd only have one if i had something else i could run around in smile

hth cool

Sounds like a plan happy

Your not going to be able to drive a soft top race car all the time as it will get anoying, sounds like it'd be great to have a sports car to drive all the time but the bumpy ride, noise, lack of music and carpets will make you hate the car if your in out in the pissing down rain etc.

Definetly keep the corsa, it'll make you appriciate the elise more when u drive that smile

Look into if they have leaky roofs or not, the guy who owned the one i went in said it leaks from time to time, and your gonna have to take me out in it when/if you get it lol tease

Mate of mine has an Elise at the moment as a loan car whilst his Fiat Coupe is being repaired under warrenty, and says he loves it though he says he could only put up with the impracticallity of it if it was a second car - he couldnt live with it day in day out...

Dunno, its just the bog std one, summut to do with the warrenty company provinding another performance car if his needed warrenty work.

His car is a Fiat Coupe, the Elise is the courtesy car, and he says its very impractical frown
