Well i've learnt two things tonight

[CooperS]

1) You can't get a 20 stone + guy into an elise........ (still laughing)

2) Don't wear your best suit in an elise..... or be more careful. Just ruined a pair of trousers.... feck......

A friend of mine is around 6ft 3in and getting on for 26st. He took one look at the door opening and gave up before he even started, thank God...

Not actually ripped any clothes in the Elise and I'm a bit smaller than either of the guys mentioned above but.... I was once driving my Elise roof off on one of those hot but showery summer days. I was wearing a Linen suit. Big shower of rain so I stop to put the roof on. Big mistake! One very drowned idiot putting his roof on (the rain heavier than a good shower at home) in a sopping wet creamy coloured suit. You should have seen the sympathetic looks I got from those in passing cars

Sounds a bit Miami Vice Tim?

I had a 20+ stone mate come down to Le Mans with me in the Elise, that made for 36+ stone being lugged along with camping gear and clothes.... Both of us over 6 foot..

Do you guys find it gets a bit tight in the cabin? My dad and I are both quite broad across the shoulders and we struggle for space a bit side-by-side. No problem with girls on the other hand, though. Maybe there's a lesson there somewhere...
