I just joined up here (Got an Elan s2, which i have had for 11 years !)

Live in the Czech Republic at moment - just married my Czech Girlfriend after a few years and drive everywhere in the elan - we both love her!!

Drove 2000 km this summer on our honeymoon to southern Italy - had a lovely time and as usual packed the elan like it was a Volvo XC 90!

Here are a couple of pics showing what our cars can do when you are in a country where the police let you get on with whatever you are determind to do - like take a 3 metre dingy to the beach on your convertible!!!

I'll never look at dinghy afloat again without thinking of the elan suspended below the water line !!

Were the photos taken at low tide ? ;-)

Off topic & @ geoff: What's in your Avatar now? A pre production model of a Segway?
What i would like is a topic where you can list up all your (idiotic) Avatars :-D

666 ..... welcome to the forum !

I really like your idea of adding an aftermarket airbag...... but it looks like you might have slightly misread the fitting instructions

Cheers,

Martin.

No, but I know the Chief Engineer for the Segway gyros and he is also called Geoff.... and he too is clinically insane.... we were crossing a road in the US together and the sign changed to "DO NOT WALK" so we simultaneously proceeded to hop the rest of the way.
