forgot to introduce myself, sorry!

Hi all,
been a member for just over a year now, missed the bit about introductions still , I'm Smudge from Dorchester in Dorset, not seen any other Elans in the area yet! I do love my 1992 SE Turbo in Steel blue, it drives great though not brilliant on idle. There's a bit of paint work to do as some previous owner did some paintwork but not very well and the wrong colour .
Looking forward to the meet at Malvern this year hope to see some of you guys there,
Smudge

With regard to the idle .... have a look here

Hi Smudge....I'm not too far away in Cricket St Thomas. Not out much in the Elan over the winter...but any time its not raining in the summer its the only car we've got with a soft top so gets plenty of outings. There's also a red one I've seen in Crewkerne a few times, but not many others!

thanks MPx,

use mine all year (a little damp on the knee but who cares when your enjoying yourself ), I thought I saw a green Elan in Bridport with a hard top in November but don't know if it was local or not

I'd have a guess at Nige for that one

I've been through Dorchester in mine a few times (more so when Matt was at Bovington), but not for the last year or so.
