And a very merry Christmas from the slightly warmer and dryer end of this pleasant land where we hope to see each other in the coming year at various events

Well, as you've done the top bit, right-side and bottom bit of our island, I'll send best wishes from the left-hand edge - that sould cover pretty well most of it - except any outlying islands.....

Good news: I do still have the Elan!!
PS the supercharged Evora (NOT turbocharged) came out in 2010/2011 in parallel with the N/A. N/A finally disappeared a few years later when all models were effectively the S and 400 series..
The N/A does 0-60 in about 5.0secs, the S in 4.6secs. In real life on the road no real difference. Personal skills, traction and human launch control probably account for a similar or greater variance.
Oh and another Merry Xmas to get back on track.
