I'm not sure what an elese is but I expect you want an Elise.

Only pulling your leg.

I suggest your first port of call should be a dealer/specialist and get a drive. Then ask about a trade in.

You'll get shafted by a dealer on trade in. Sell private and buy cash from a private seller.

Get trade in prices form lotus dealers then put your car on PH classifieds and Autotrader for say £1000 more.You will be free then to buy privately and save a mint - I did and do not regret it.Bear in mind you should be able to get the same car £3000 less with some haggling privately ( it is a buyers market ).Another option would be to put your Saab in the British Car Auction -Top Car auctions. I sold my mark 1 Elise through their Measham site - was offered 11k by my local dealer sold in auction for 16.5K!
DO NOT PART EX YOUR CAR!!!
