Newbie

Post by scotchgitt » Wed Jan 07, 2009 12:26 pm

Hi all,

Just looking at the moment, learning what I can. I will be made redundant in March and have a new job lined up so plan on spending some of my dunddy on an Elise.

Think I want a S2 111s around a 2002/3. £12000 ish.

I see I have a lot of homework to do in the next couple of months.

Speak to you soon and I am sure I will have many questions.

Hi Welcome along
sorry about your upcoming redundancy but glad you've got somethings lined up,it's a buyers market at the moment so don't buy the first one you see unless its a cracker

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

If you're not getting the cash until end of March get yourself up to Knockhill once the trackday season starts. Plenty of cars to jump in and out of and get a feel for what you like/want/need.
