New to LEC and looking...

Postby Silento » Sat 22.12.2007, 15:30

Hi Guys

I've just registered with LEC and I'm looking for my first Elan...

I've spent some time scanning LEC's very helpful site, but want to ask if anyone can recomend where to look for a car outside of the usual Autotrader, Piston Heads etc.

I'm from Milton Keynes (for my sins) and would be pleased to hear from anyone local that can also help in my quest.

Thanks
Silento

Welcome o silent one.
Rip aka Jack should be along soon. He wears odd looking bandanas but otherwise is a very pleasant chap, and also lives in MK.
Whats your budget?
Dave Edds aka the spudmeister could be selling his low mileage yellow SE.

Speckers, i've come to the conclusion you've either lost the plot or you are mistaking me for someone else :?
I was a bit suprised when you mentioned i'd threatened to blend you into the M62 tarmac....... when I hadn't :? :?
And i've never been to Hethel :? :? :?
Surely there can't be two George Clooney look alikes on lec?

Unless you're refering to gray Gaz? :?

Dico...

I was refering to Gary.... The NO DAD hat...

Your're right about the M62, but why let the truth get in the way of a good rumour...

more importantly Silento if you find a car Reading/Oxford way...

give us a shout if you want a second opion..

Be glad to meet up sometime.

If I was looking for another, I would check here first, then Pistonheads/Autotrader. You missed a nice Pacific Blue one for sale locally. It went about 4-6 weeks ago.

What is wrong with MK? Roundabouts are the Elan's party trick :D

If you want to see a sick Elan, I have one of those :wink: Not for sale though.
