Thats the one I posted a link to a few months back - first 111s prototype is what the Autotrader advert said.

elephant insurance don't recognise the car at all - if you put in a plate when doing a quote, it should tell you exactly what kind of car it is

It doesn't always work on elephant, it doesn't recognise mine as it's a private plate so if that car has had a private plate on in the past that could be why.

its worked for private plates with me in the past

anyway, i take it an elise wi that sort of miles on it will be by its best? I've looked over a couple about the 50k mark that were a bit rough.

Depends how it's been looked after. There are cars with over 100k still going fine so they can take the miles as long as they've been maintained well I think.
