i love the elise and exige, especially the S2 version, it was what i was originally going to get instead of the Zed, but i was told no by the wife, due to practicality and the fact that she refuses to get in them, and we use my car as the weekend runner.
she deems a are with no carpet as not a proper car.
but may well get one at a later date, when i can afford to run it as a secod car for weekends and track days maybe when i'm 50
