I used to own this very car albeit for a short period. Great to see some of the major work has been done.
Did you buy it from a garage in Linlithgow? Or was it a private sale?
Do regret not keeping at times, had great character. Blue roof when I owned.
Good luck with the sale.

Nice to see an Elise with some proper mileage on her. Do you know if she's had any paint in the past? Is she HPi clear? Thanks

Yes I did buy it from the garage in Linlithgow, definitely has character !
For the first few years I just couldn't stop driving it

I still have the blue roof but it has seen better days.

It needed some TLC for sure but it drives brilliantly now. Someone will be very happy with it I'm sure.

I will probably regret not keeping it too but right now it makes sense to move it on.

Thanks !

In my almost 4 years of ownership I have done around 20,000 of those miles So much fun.

Only paint correction I have done was a few scratches on the top of the little spoiler at the back, the garage door came down on it.
It was surface scratches and was only really noticeable from certain angles but it annoyed me. I have the invoice for this.

HPI clear!

Hope that helps

Thanks
