Default Elise tour to Stelvio 06

Just recently came back from a tour of Austria, Italy, and Switzerland in the Elise.
The mountain passes are just fantastic and everyone should do Stelvio at least once in their lives:drive:

Thought i would post a few piccies to encourage you to give it a go










And a couple of the Stelvio

CTR and supercharger would do nicely. The cost is about 10k though, so will have to wait a while yet

Yeah i changed from a scooby wagon to the elise about 20 months ago.
Theres lots i miss about the scooby, but the elise pays it back in other ways.

As stilover said though, with the cost of fuel now, i am glad i made the change

Which model of elise are you going for?
And as your from brum, why not register with MLOC
Hope to see you on a lotus run sometime.

**** me, I knew the roads were narrow but not that narrow!
Fantastic scenery but doesn't look that thrilling to actually drive, more worrying that you're not going to get your wing mirrors knocked off!
