Lotus Elise

The personal webspace of James Dunn

With the summer fast approaching, and my existing car now a full seventeen years old, I decided it was about time for something a bit newer.

The Lotus Elise seemed to tick all of the right boxes: two seats, convertible, fast, slightly unusual, and striking in appearance. It certainly makes getting from A to B a lot more interesting! Less desirable aspects include the extortionate insurance premium, issues with rain, and the fact that everyone now thinks they automatically have the right to cut me up/pull out right in front of me; but I've decided the pro's definately outweight the cons.

Over the summer I planning to drive down to the south of France for a couple of weeks and try out some proper windy roads, but in the meantime the daily commute is having to make do. I've also still got my previous car which is useful for things like moving more than one passenger around, and getting anything in the back!

Take a look at some more pictures of it here.
