If you like this you may like mine

A bit more old school, but the original and the best

Just realised you actually meant the actual wheels. These are standard fit to S2 111S & 111R elises - not sure who makes them. I think they are 4 studs with the fronts being 16" and the rears being 17". The 111S (Rover engine) & 111R (Toyota engine) have different offsets.

P.S.
My Tangerine Type S GT now has a confirmed delivery date of 7/7/8

Ordered way back in March!

Bernie, that is just sexy

What's the power?

Si they look nice - the second ones i mean, a little like Focus ST alloys

psykik · 20th June 2008, 22:22

bernie! Show off!

Very nice Bernie.

I nearly bought one a good many years ago, but a change in circumstances soon changed that idea.

Fortunately I did get to the test drive stage and loved it. They are a cracking car.

A standard elise is 118bhp but mine is a 135 Sport supposedly 135 bhp but reportedly to be closer to 145 bhp. Doesn't sound much but I have had mine weighed and it came in at 747kg which I believe is just a little over half the weight of a spaceship

gives tremendous power to weight ratio but all the fun comes from the handling. All that said, between a well driven CTR and an elise there wouldn't be much in it at all.

I am very fortunate in that my CTS will be my company car although I do need to pay a bit towards it.
