Well after having to sell my Z4M due to buying a new house in Verwood,I have been contacted by a gentlemen in Herefordshire regarding a Part EX involving another Elise which I'm very tempted by.

I know its a longshot but does anyone know PN03 BUF. Its a silver 2003 sport racer with red interior and K series engine (5 previous owners)

Thanks

Andy

Well the German sausage is gone and now back in a Lotus just in time for winter!! smile

It needs a few bits doing to it such as pads and gear linkage kit as the box is very loose currently.

What is people's thoughts regarding these items - keep OEM or upgrade? (I know there used to be a short shift kit which gave it a riflebolt like change)

Personally I'd get a dealer / specialist to adjust the gear linkage before changing it. Mine always feels better after a service. Look at the SELOC tech wiki for pad advice. I swapped mine for Pagids which are expensive but feel better and have lasted much longer.

Hope to see you out and about when I get back to Wimborne in December.
