Can anyone throw any light on the following? Over the summer I left me Elise S1 in the hot direct sun for a few hours, roof off. When I started it up, suddenly the dash was covered in heavy condensation on the inside (strange as it hadn't rained for days and the car is usually garaged) and the dials started reading crazy numbers with a minimum of 40mph and 5000 revs. But over the course of an hour's drive the condensation gradually cleared and the dials eventually fixed themselves and have worked fine since. I would like to avoid that happening again so any clues would be welcome. Thanks

Me too. My S1 has done that since new.

Just listen to engine note and look at the road....ignore the Stack unless a warning comes on. The light condensation goes away quickly by itself, so not a worry.
