Show Us Your Motors!

Haha, yeah that's true actually. Bit of a dumb thing to say.

I meant it's not particularly IN the best light due to so many shadows caused by the low sun. I was going to take it out on the seafront to get some proper photos as the light would have been awesome there... but got lazy :(.

Wife's new Seat Leon Sport/Cupra (V5 says Sport, insurance database says Cupra. I stuck a Cupra badge on it yesterday):

Full Seat SH, one owner, 54K, everything works, good tyres, 5 months MOT/tax etc etc £2250. Super clean with no rust (apart from very minor stone chip rust spots in a couple of places). Very pleased with it so far. Nice and comfortable when compared with my CTR and Swift Sport. Only annoying thing is that some butt monkey has fitted rim weights and not stick-ons.
 
Lotus Elise S1 from 1998, owned it now since March 2008 when I chopped in my MX-5 for it.

Spent the first 2 years running it as my daily driver, but now I have my parents old Subaru Forester so it's a garage queen and does around 2,000 miles per year. Made a few changes to it since then including Gaz Gold Pro suspension (I know it's not the best, but I got a fantastic deal on it and the Koni's were leaking) and Exige seats with Schroth harnesses.

Very basic inside, even for an Elise. Speakers and original seatbelts were removed and stored when I changed the seats, just looking for a long dash panel to come up for sale so I can remove the headunit without being left with a big hole in the dash.

These days I help with the running of SELOC (I think they're a few members on here as I recognise the names) and am considering changing the Forester for a Lotus Excel, mostly to get some experience of running a 'classic' car - although don't tell the missus :whip:
