nope, you're listed as either d***c with a feedback of 315, or even m***o with a feedback of 330 (and that is one horrendous shirt, well done, sir.... but it will clash with my waistcoat, I fear!

Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it


...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

Hi

Well on my search for a good Elan at sensible money I've come across this very informative forum ..... I saw this on eBay and wondered if anyone knew of it .... number of previous owners is a little eyebrow raising but decent history perhaps overcomes that ....

We won't even comment on the colour !!

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/311569676091? ... EBIDX%3AIT

I'm looking ideally at about 5 - 5.5k and it is to be used as a dry day fun car (I was considering a Boxster but they do seem to have fallen into chav hands at that money and before looking never thought I would be able to afford a Lotus !!!)

Hi Simon ,
Just replied on your Hello in the new member thread ...

This is Kiers old car .
Well known on here due to its one off paint scheme .
Kier was an active member on here for many years .

I expect others will come and comment as to what they remember about the car ..

All the best and hope to see you in a 2 seater soon.

Thanks

Hopefully people will come along and give a comment or two either on this or the intro thread .... it seems to have gone up in money dramatically and been for sale a while as it is the same bloke selling it now

Bugger put off already !!

Apparently not ... he made it clear he had turned down 4900 ...

I'd rather wait and get one from someone who at least seemed genuine :)

Could be bullshit to try and get you to bump up your offer. In fact, the smell is overwhelming ... ;-)

Kier's car used to be mundane silver before he sprayed it Pistachio ;-)
