Ground Clearance M14

[aps]

Anyone know the ground clearance of the M14. Is it still 110mm like the 3R?

What size fuel tank has it?

Transferred my GTC deposit over for it like J. Might have to think about postponing the deposit on the DB9. 3.5 years to wait is a bit excessive!

Alan, can't answer your questions but wanted to say after seeing the M14 at the show yesterday I fully understand your decision to change your order. If my car wasn't on the boat I might have joined you! Martin.

On a non scientific measurement of the photos.

The car spec (www.lotus-elise.org.uk/M14/M14%20brochure.pdf) quotes 1150mm height, so measuring the space under the car on the "flat" M14 side shot gives a clearance of 133mm - so it seems to be a bit higher but that may just be the photos.

Sorry - no idea about fuel tank.

Micknall - are you there???

Well done on joining moi

Also depends whether ride height is measured laden. You'd normally set a car up with half a tank of fuel and ballast in the seats. On an Elise this makes a few mm's difference when the car is unladen. Dunno if it would be so apparent on a heavier car like the M14 though. I imagine the ballast is proportionately less of the sprung mass so guess not.

Martin on the stand thought it'd be just a tad higher than the 3R.
