With money burning a hole in my pocket, I've spent the last few days looking at the forums on this website, studying comments comparing the popular cars and I have decided the only way to make sure is to test drive them!

Currently in the number one spot is the elise S1 or S2 (closely followed by the TVR Chim or VX220). It will be my only/everyday car and so I think the Elise appears a more reliable bet than the TVR. But as I said I think only a test drive will tell.

I wish to buy the motor from a dealer, so can you guys tell me of a decent friendly dealer, in the Ruislip (North West London) area who I get a test drive and a good look around of both S1 and S2 elises this weekend?

Cheers!

HR Owen St Albans 01727 866171
As for Nick Carey (nice guy and knows his stuff)
I got mine there this time last year.
They arranged a morning of test drives in S1 and S2s so I could judge the differences myself.
Sales and after sales service has been great and not a single regret yet!
Be warned though the nobles and ferraris are very tempting too!
