Loads round here, I get the feeling the drivers of them feel that they are in a
'fast' car?! Im sure they are deluded. Im usualy in my van but I long for the
day when im in my Elise and im behind one.

(Its probably a man thing as my penis is not too large(mine) )

I bet they describe them as 'nippy'

 

Yeah, I hate the term 'PEPPY' aaaaaaaaaargh

Russ.

 

As an Elise driver, you really should understand.

They're really not fast in a straight line, but great fun when driven at 11/10.

Kind of like my old X-1/9s, MX-5s. Oh, and a Honda S2000.

 

Im just being elitist

Russ.

 

You should try one. It is great fun at any speed and you'll probably find the driver was enjoying himself so much that he didn't notice you. Or maybe he was laughing that you spent

 

I think its the drivers that annoy me, they usualy have wraparound
shades on and just try to portray an image of cool 'nippyness'

Bass, im mainly in the van not the 18K ! Liz.

They'll never be cool but they are rare enough to be different and I like different I've only ever seen 1 on the road
With fuel out of control and my need to get a high mpg car to supliment a bike they are a great compromise without becoming a total ecotwat.
Its that or a streetKa. And I know which I'd prefer.

 

I'm sorry but I loved my Streetka - it was nippy and peppy

 

The most undiluted fun I had in a car was in my 903 cc Fiat 127. It was a crazy rev machine, handled great and with only 45 bhp, I would have to try to get points. The car was also light, practical and frugal - not the best car to have a head-on crash in, but I suspect the awareness of that made me a more considered driver.

It was also good for the soul.
