Scottish Elises

So everyone is back safely ?
Who was chased by the Alpine's Gendarmes ?

Don't hesitate to share photos and videos :

Hello, We're going on a road trip to the south of España at the beginning of September, and I'm wondering if we can turn off the heating, because even on cold, hot air ends up coming through the air ducts, and the whole space under the dashboard is very hot. https://i90.servimg.com/u/f90/12/98/45/57...

Hi,
I don't know if you know, but if you want to travel by a scenic road, you can use ViaMichelin, and scenic road are highlighted in green
Example around Mulhouse and Colmar :


Have a nice trip

If you have time, you must visit the "Schlumpf" Museum in MULHOUSE, with probably the biggest collection of Bugatti in the world.

Hello everyone,

Has anyone ever installed a Carplay in an Elise S2 ?
If you have a link to buy the right model for my rig, it could be a great improvement of the car for our Roadtrip.

Many thanks, Julien

Have you tried driving without your shoes Julien? Worked well for me in the south of France a few years back!!

Unfortunately, driving barefoot or with flip flap, tong or sandal is forbidden

Today, oil change in preparation for the road trip season




ready for Le Mans !

I don't know if it's a problem in Scotland, but in the summer our legs and feet get really hot in the Elise. We were worried about extreme heat on our road trip in Spain, so we made this little device with PVC elbows: https://i90.servimg.com/u/f90/12/98/45/57/20230938.jpg As soon as our legs get too...

Hi, I'am Julien

Lotus S2 111R 1.8 2-ZZGE, RHD, from an old member of this forum
Twingo 1 Phase 2 16v (the daily)
Citroën C3-2 2011 (for Madam)
Toyota LandCruiser L70 1985 (engine swap with the 3.0L TD ) full offroad equiped
Clio 2 RS (172 Hp)

Hello guys,
The biggest problem with forum (this one or other, whatever the subject) is lost images, so technical topic became an empty shell
In some forum, images are uploaded and hosted in the server of the forum, indirect link are forbidden.

Greetings, Julien

I Ross,
For our road trip, each year we are on the road at 2 for 2 weeks, 2/3 of the trunck for Madame and 1/3 for me
We use vaccum bags and a little pump.
Usually we made a washing machine at the middle of the trip.

Ross, is your Scottish kilt allowed ?

Taking also the Elise, we arrive on the morning of Friday, looking forward to offering you a drink

Hello,

Who goes to Le Mans Classic 2025 ?

Am loving the write-up and very envious of the trip. Do you know what the car in the last picture is? It's in even worse state than my Austin 7!

It's an old Citroën, a C2 or a C3, i'm not a specialist
