20k to spend, what would you buy?
Discussion
Hi all
I'm seriously considering buying my first Lotus. I currently daily drive a Renault Clio RS200 with the cup chassis, and I love it. I've spent a good amount of time on track with the car and I will be honest, I forgot how fun a FWD, revvy car can be. However, I want something faster and even more engaging to drive.
I really would like an S2 Elise, mainly because I don't like K Series engines. They sound good, but I would obsess over the HG issues and it would ruin the car for me. I would prefer the S/Cd variant, if possible.
I know prices are fairly mental at the moment, but is my budget too low for a well sorted S2?
I would be daily driving the car, but I WFH and only really drive for fun. Last month I covered 160 miles, so I don't really go anywhere and for any long drive that I might do, I have a VW T5 van.
Thanks
