Nice!

It's a standard 1.8K series Rover engine so nothing massive (I'd prob kill myself in a modded Elise hehe) and the chassis is FINE with the std engine, else I'm sure they'd have been withdrawn from sale like, immediately

Pray tell more about your conversation..........

Trixter · « **Reply #8 on:** September 27, 2009, 11:04:52 PM »

erm without being to rude on the forum the basis off the conversation was about a certain thing being done on top of the engine's body work as its the flatest bit of the car and not much room inside

word starts with an (S) and ends with (X)

Elise engine lids aren't made for bonking on!!! Certainly wasn't featured in the original design brief

Get a room instead........!

I read that as "Bocking on"

Greggles · « **Reply #12 on:** September 28, 2009, 12:10:05 PM »

shotgun flipping it first XD

Jason · « **Reply #13 on:** September 28, 2009, 10:21:36 PM »

Just buy a Landie instead

plenty of room on the bonnet/roof in the back

Jason

CJ · « **Reply #14 on:** September 28, 2009, 10:23:55 PM »

there's the challenge for you Greg flip the Landie that would be impresive

Jason · « **Reply #15 on:** September 29, 2009, 08:36:07 PM »

Good idea just not mine

Jason

IronVinyl · « **Reply #16 on:** October 09, 2009, 01:20:47 PM »

I would try to get excited but i live in norfolk, the things are common round here

Though the new lotus does look very very nice

toddy · « **Reply #17 on:** October 09, 2009, 02:37:34 PM »

So does she!! Mmm..lotus factory. I still think I see more tractors than lotus cars tho.

Oh and if toddy attempts to flip a landy I will film it, youtube it, post it here and buy some new bocks with the £250 it will earn me

Jason · « **Reply #19 on:** October 09, 2009, 09:12:34 PM »

I think Toddy means he will Flip the Landie

not Flip over the landie

When it comes to that type of flip I have done the same Suzuki twice a Reliant Regal super van (older than the trotters one) 0nce (it was a write off)
and nearlys on a Moggy van and an Escort van (Two wheels but not over)

So do I hold the record
