thanks jjr1

it seems you got a "dud" elise, someone i know has an elise and he seems pretty happy with his, he says the build quality is obviously not up there with everybody else, but it hasn't given him any serious problems..



Mine had oil starvation twice while on track so I guess I did use it quite hard.

To be fair my mate has one at the moment and his has 40,000 miles or more on it and it hardly ever gives him any problems.

Now that the Elise comes with a Toyota engine I would love to see how well it goes.

i also tried a TVR Sagaris the other day and despite all the acclaim by the motoring press it does have one significant failing. If you push it hard over a bumpy road the rear will ground out not only recking the underneath but potentially a danger as well. Shame because it looks awesome.
